Haute Handbags has arrived!

It was such a thrill to open the beautiful magazine and see my handbag inside. I have turned pages many times admiring all the beautiful handbag creations with such excitement, it makes me want to do this again. Now I think, "Why not the cover?" In all seriousness, when you take on a challenge like this it starts a fire inside that makes you want to create more. All in all, my creativity is alive.

My Embellished Handbag will be published in Haute Handbags Fall 2010!!! (SOLD)

I made a goal for myself to send a handbag into this publication this year. I received an email yesterday telling me that this handbag will be in the Gallery Section of the Fall 2010 edition of Haute Handbags. This is a great publication and I can't wait to see my creation in this magazine.

Made from a pennant from a race...

My husband went up to Hayward, Wi last year to participate in the Kortelopet race with all of these cross country ski buddies. He brought back his number pennant and I was immediately inspired to my a handbag out of it. It took me 8 months to do it , but here it is!

New Book Covers - small and large

I made these book covers with composite notebooks and smaller nice notebooks for people like me sho love to have a notebook on hand to create, make lists, take notes and draw ideas. I put a pencil holder on the side to help keep the book closed.
