As most of you guys know it has been my intention to work from home, making bags and other pretty things to sell locally and online. So far I have finished 5 bags and a silk keepsake 'book'. They are all handmade by me. Each bag has a small logo label, individually hand embroidered. They are fully lined, the tote bags have extra stitching on the handles for strength and also a hidden vinyl panel to re-inforce the bottom. The Fabric Tote bags will retail at $30 CAD, the bambo effect handled purses at $40CAD (+ shipping).

The keepsake books are custom made to order, the one shown was made for a dear friend. The pictures, 8 or 12 of your choice, are printed onto Habotai Silk, and are permanent. The photos supplied by you will be suitably cropped and sized by me. I can include other materials, such as a poem or message but nothing that is copyright protected. The 'pages' will be embellished with beads, lace and ribbons and then sewn into a book. The cover can be made from various fabrics, with or without embellishments. Apart from the top stitching around the cover which is machine stitched, everything else is stitched by hand. Each one has a sewn in ribbon and bead bookmark. The books can be made to suit many occasions: Anniversary, new baby, friendship. These will retail at $50 CAD (8 pics) $65 CAD (12 pics) + shipping.
