Storybook page purses

I LOVE making these!  They are old book pages made into coin purses with wrist straps in contrasting fabrics.  The pages are encased in plastic for protection and you can see the reverse side of the page inside the purses.  I've used a thick strip of velcro so there is no chance your things will fall out of these!  

More Eco purses

Wow, it is fun not studying!  I do love my course, but having a couple of weeks off makes me appreciate everything else more.  I went op-shopping today and got some great kids books, a bookcase and a couple of feather boas for dress ups.  Only just over a week to go of being creative then back to study.  I'd love to get a couple more paintings done, the next one is going to be an oil pastel on a collage background with the pages from Wuthering Heights and some mango leaf paper... should be interesting.

Purses in Greens

here is a little selection of purses I just made in greens - I love the tree fabric, it's Japanese and I also love the owl fabric. Some of these are for sets with matching headbands and some of these sets are off to Perth to MillaRuby Designs who will have them on her site and also at the Mathilda Markets!

Altas and Storybook wallets

These wallets are made from old atlas and children's storybook pages. Both sides are covered in PVC and close with a velcro strip so your coins won't fall out. The smaller ones are also great for your phone or ipod. A unique recycled product that is great for a gift and only $12.50 at the Pod Collective Market Place shop.

Coin Purses

The black, white and red is a larger clutch purse

Here are the latest coin purses designs ....

Purses in oranges

Have a look at some of these beautiful fabrics. I love the mushrooms and the dogs! Can you guess which one used to be a pillow case?

Coin purses

More coin purses, denim on the back and PVC covered fabric on the front. Zip is 13cm long.

PVC Covered clutch purses

These purses are denim on one side and a designer fabric on the other. The patterned side is also covered in PVC so you don't have to worry about it getting dirty. These purses are fully lined with a small handle on the side. You could use these for a purse, make-up bag, a funky pencil case or to keep other things in just because you love the fabric and really want one! I love making these purses as I get to use so many different amazing fabrics (good excuse to buy more!). The zip in these purses is 18cm long but I can make them any size if you want something different.

Coin purses

More coin purses - dark denim on one side and vinyl coated fabric on the other side. You can wipe these clean. Great for cards, coins, or any other small things that get lost in your bag. These come in 2 sizes, some with 10cm zips but mostly 13cm zips.
