Handmade Bag - Janet






This is the second custom designed bag that is jetting to Perth. Purple is my favourite colour, I think that the different shades and designs in this bag work so well together. I just love the butterfly it adds just the right amount of sparkle.

Handmade Bag - Jane







The commission brief on this project was , brown, black and maybe some grey.
The decorative fabric for this bag was perfect with all three of these colours appearing in spot form.
The buttons on this bag I just love. The wood blending perfectly with rich brown and black cord as does the black and brown rick rack.
It was heaps of fun making this bag for Jane :)

Handmade Bag - Green Cranes






This bag was created with the design brief of "Green and Birds".
Pulling this bag together was a fun challenge.
I did not have any bird fabric, and in the end found it challenging to find any fabric that had beautiful birds and would coordinate with a green base.
I am really happy with the end result. The buttons on this bag are gorgeous and fit so well with the "picture" that I was trying to create.
Hope the lady who is going to receive this as a surprise, enjoys her gift.
