Purses & Bags

These are just 2 examples I have of a purse & bag that mom has made for me. The purse was inspired by a store bought purse I had bought & then mom had seen the silk, brocade fabric at the store & wanted to use it for something. She found some brown velvet & matching ribbon & voila! a new purse.

This bag is probably one of my oldest "mom made" items that I have in my house. I would say it is around 20 years old. It was originally used as a school bag & now it is a "whatever bag". It has been machine washed numerous times & still does not show much wear. The image on the front is a hand painted replica of a famous drawing & hasn't deteriorated over time. Mom makes quality products that are not going to fall apart over time, with normal use.
