Purse Party!

Last weekend I had my first Purse Party! Here are some pictures from the party. I had so much fun and I met a lot of great people too!








I got a lot of orders from the party so I will have a lot of pictures of fun designs soon. Until then, I will be busy making purses! But I will not post pictures of the Christmas presents that were ordered until after Christmas.
Coming soon.....I will post pictures of my brand new purse design! It was revealed at the party for the first time!

New Products!

I have been busy working on some great new products, as well as making some nice adjustments to my original purse design. Here are just a few of the things I have been working on.

I have built quite the collection now. Ready for the christmas shopping rush :)
My purses now have the option of the double handle. Its always nice to have options, and this allows you to customize your purse in yet another way.

I love this suit material, it really dresses up the design.

This will match about anything :) (I love gray!)

This is cotton. Makes for a nice casual purse.

These are NEW! I just designed them yesterday. Nice little wallets with key rings. Great stocking stuffers for Christmas. They are a nice size for ID cases for students too.


I am currently working on a design for a duffel bag, and I am looking forward to starting a design for a diaper bag as well. Keep coming back to see my new products!

Time to Start Shopping!

I received LOTS of fabric from one of my friends so I am ready to start creating! The fabric she sent is the perfect size for clutches!




Its time to start thinking about Christmas Shopping! What better to get your friends than a purse made just for them! I am now taking Christmas Orders for custom purses! I also have a few purses already made that you can buy. They are pictured below.

Custom Orders

I just finished my first custom order purse! I am very excited about this. I got an order from a friend that wanted a purse to match the colors of the university where she works, Orange and Black. She also told me she liked animal prints. So I went off to the fabric store to see what I could come up with. I found some great fabrics of black and white zebra print and a nice orange to match. Below are some pictures of the finished product.

I love making custom bags. It makes it feel like I am giving someone a special gift. It is fun to know that these custom bags are uniquely made for one person only.

Missing Out

I have been looking forward to Labor Day weekend for SOO Long!! Not because of a long weekend or time with family (although that is great too) but because of the BIG SALE at Joann's! I could not wait to pick out new material for my purses and get creating! I put my Joann trip on my calender and my husband John even promised to go with me to the big Joann store that's 45 mins away!
I could not contain my excitement as Friday came closer. On Wednesday John bought a car on ebay so ROAD TRIP! We drove a total of 28 hours to pick it up. Which means no Joann's on Friday. But not to worry the sale was on until Monday! So on Monday we drove 45 mins to the Big Joann's and shopped and shopped. I did not find anything that I liked for my purses! So we came back home and went to the local store where last week I saw several things I liked. Well wouldn't you know, they closed early! Poor John drove me all over and I still missed out on the sale! haha

I did make it to the store on Tuesday and got some nice things I will post those pics when I make the bags soon! But until that, here are some pictures of the clutches I have made...

This one is not for sale. I made it to match my favorite pair of silver heels! If you have a favorite pair of shoes I would love to make you a purse or clutch to match! Place an order today by emailing me at laura_bowman@rocketmail.com


I have 5 of these. I just fell in love with the material. It feels like silk!

SOLD
This one is more of a canvas material.

This is from the cotton material that I used to make my sister-in-laws diaper bag.



Love this tan animal print clutch!

Well, that's all for now.
