Cherry Blossoms


Hello, everyone!

I finally made myself some stencils so that I can paint my fabrics faster than before. These are the cherry blossoms stencils, so far I've used them for printing some eco-friendly tote bags and some wallets. Soon I'll make some pillow cases and a circle skirt.

Do you have flower print pillows in your home?
What about flower print skirts? Do you like them? Would you wear one?

See you soon!
Olivia

Red mustaches and White flowers with black vegan leather purses



This small wristlet is handmade by me using high quality cotton fabric for the upper part of the bag and faux leather for the bottom. You can choose between the red one with mustache print or the black one with the tiny white flowers. They both have a white cotton lining and an interior slip pocket. They both close with matching textile and plastic zippers with faux leather tassels for easier grip. The wrist strap connects to the bag through a nickel clasp and a D ring. The exterior fabric has a layer of fusible fleece and the lining has a layer of fusible interfacing so that the bags keep their shape.

The purse is very practical, you can just throw in your essential things like wallet, phone, keys, lipstick and you're ready to go. The strap makes it easier to hold, but it's removable so you can just take it off if you prefer.

Convertible Glenda Bag with beige world map print




This convertible clutch is handmade with quality polyester cotton fabric for the flap and warm grey canvas fabric for the body. The pattern on the fabric is a colorful world map on a beige background, that may vary and feature different countries or continents. For the interior lining I used white cotton fabric. I can make the bag with the blue version of this fabric, the one used here: http://victorsboutique.tictail.com/product/insulated-lunch-tote-for-women-world-map-lunch-bag-reusab...

The purse closes with a sew-in magnetic snap. It's interfaced and has also a layer of sew-in heavy stabilizer (Pellon) between the exterior fabric and the interfacing, for sturdiness. There is also an interior zippered divider compartment for the smaller things like for your phone, lipstick, keys, pens etc. It can be worn as a clutch or a shoulder bag if you use the included gray canvas shoulder strap that connects to the purse with two nickel lobster hooks and two nickel O rings. 

This shoulder bag that quickly converts into a clutch is great for just going out with friends during daytime or going to a club or restaurant at night. You can match it with a dress or a pair of jeans, with heels or flats, it's very versatile. And it would also make a perfect gift for anyone who likes maps or traveling, your mom, your girlfriend, or yourself.

Features:

■ handmade with quality polyester cotton fabric and grey canvas

For this bag I used the "Glenda Convertible Clutch" pattern from Swoon Patterns: https://swoonpatterns.com/

Rainbow fabric and black vegan leather cross-body bag


This cross-body purse is a colorful accessory that you can wear with any piece of clothing to make it look more cheerful. It is small enough to be carried with no effort but spacious enough to hold your necessary items or even a camera. 

I used high quality designer cotton fabric called "

Rainbow Remix Diamonds Bermuda" (Robert Kaufman) for the flap, off-white cotton canvas and vegan black leather for the exterior and a white thin, fine cotton and viscose blend for the interior. 

This bag has a long fake black leather adjustable and removable shoulder strap. The strap ends with nickel lobster clasps.
The purse closes with an invisible magnetic snap. It is interfaced and it's very sturdy yet flexible. I used Bosal foam for the interior, so the bag will keep its shape for a long time, even after it's been washed multiple times. The pictures were taken with an empty purse, except the one with its interior, of course. The flap is also interfaced and padded with polyurethane Bosal foam.

It can be a perfect gift for your mother, sister, aunt, friend or yourself!
