Picture with strap on purse

Here's one of the silk bags with the strap attached.  My Etsy listings for the clutches indicate which colour the strap on each listed bag is - black (like this one), navy, gold, or beige.  The cross body style, as pictured here, measure about 46" (117cm) long.

Etsy Treasuries & Colour Trends

It's been quite a while since I made any Etsy treasuries (collections of items based on a theme of the maker's choosing), so over the past couple of days I have made a whole bunch of them.  I based them on the Spring and Fall 2013 Pantone colour trends.

Etsy Front Page Feature!

So, this actually got featured on Etsy back in September, but I only just found out... 

The above treasury which my little butterfly is included in was on the Etsy front page! 

Christmas season

I hope everyone is getting their shopping, baking and decorating done!  :)  Here's a couple more images of the clutches!  Eleven different colour combinations are now listed, and there's still about 4 in progress, plus a list a page long of other combinations I'll be working on.  I'd love to know what you think of them? 

Clutches, Etsy Shop Sale

I'm up to the first 5 clutches posted! 

I'm also offering free shipping in both my Etsy shops this coming weekend, Nov. 25-28.  You'll need to use coupon code SHIPPING at checkout. My textiles and painting are here, and my beaded jewellery here.

Clutches!

I'm excited to tell you that the first silk clutches are up on my Etsy shop!!  There are three sizes, a mini, a classic (a long narrow shape, size similar to many clutches), and an ultra (which is extra large).  I will be adding more colour selections soon, as they are completed and photographed.  I can also do custom colour combinations. 

Shown below is the mini.  :) 

Evening Clutches Coming Soon!!

I know it's been a while, but the first few silk evening clutch purses are nearly ready!!  There will be 3 sizes/shapes to start out, and I'm just going to see how they go and adjust accordingly.  Here's a little teaser photo!  Look for them in my Etsy Shop soon, I'll post again when they're up. 

Also, go check out this blog post where of my bookmarks is featured! 

Almost September

Yikes, I haven't posted in almost 2 weeks.  Sorry all. 
I've been busy though.  For one thing, I've had the beads all over the place and made some new pieces, which are now, or will soon be, posted to my Etsy!  Here's a peek -

Nearly!

Busy getting everything prepped for the show starting Friday! Includes a bunch of new butterflies, some brooches of which are now in my Eyespot Designs Etsy shop, as well as heading to the show. I'll post some photos of the show next week. Wish me luck, and if you're in Toronto, drop by the show!
