We Can Afford It, It Was On Sale!

Alternate title for blog: Don't tell my husband, part two

Look at these great fabrics I just got--and all on sale too! My mind is just a-buzzing with the bags I can make...don't you love animal print fabrics?

My Favorite !Bling! of all Time (number 5 of 5)

Okay, this is the grand finale, 5 of 5 favorite blings--drumroll, please!

This is what happens when it comes all together, and this bag was definitely meant to be.

All of the bling on this purse, and there's a lot of it, I acquired at different times, and none of it in the conventional ways. I was given the buttons and leather strips (love those buttons!), the feathers I bought at an estate sale, the beads and flower strips at a garage sale. What was cool is that I used practically everything of each of these items and it worked out perfectly.

There's a ton of hand sewing in this bag--the beads, feather boa, each petal tip on the flowers and of course, the buttons...it took hours but it was worth it.

This bag was a show stopper.

The Onyx Flowers Petit Bag

 

I love my new purse, Onyx Flowers purse, so named for the black flower trim on the purse and change purse.

Isn't the matching change purse cute?
