Some sun for gray winter days!


I've been playing hard to replenish my shop inventory, and am turning out the last of my peacock purses. I have two more in the works, but here are my 2 most recent in sunny gold/yellow that will hopefully brighten up these grey days of winter. People have told me that these yellow bags remind them of sunny, fun Mexico, and I have to admit that they do!


While these purses seem to look identical, in sticking to my my practice of producing only one-of-a-kind items, I've created subtle differences between the bags.



Although the fabric is the same, if you look more closesly, you'll see that I've laid out the patterns in different areas of the geometric side panels. This produces a different design and color scheme.

Also, I've used different button embellishments on the outer pocket flaps - vintage amber toned buttons on one, and shiny, new AB coated on the other. Which one do you like better?

  1. Hard to decide which one I like best, they are both so pretty. Let's see, one button is a little more casual than the other...nope, I can't do it...I can't pick a favorite, they both get a 5 star rating in my book.***** :)
