{pink, green, yellow cross-body bag ~ for stanleeann}

One of my clients, StanleeAnn, wanted me to make another cross-body bag for her.  This time I made a few changes.  She decided she wanted me to switch the orientation of the bag, so it would sit on her left shoulder instead of her right shoulder.

The main part of the bag is made out of decor fabric, so it's a little thicker than the regular cotton that I normally make bags out of.

This bag is very similar to the last bag I made for StanleeAnn, with a few changes.

made the bias tape from fabric she chose to coordinate with the stripes fabric she bought. She also decided she wanted a slip pocket in the back, so I added that too.

StanleeAnn likes these little pen/pencil holder inside her bags too.

If you would like to purchase a cross-body bag like this they are $35 {+ shipping, if applicable}. You can choose the colors/prints/fabrics and I will try to find fabric as close to what you request as possible.  Contact me at: chelscraps(@)yahoo.com.

{ties for deb's boys}

These were some custom ties I made for Deb back a few months ago. She let her 4 year old son pick out the fabric and wanted me to make a tie for him and a tie onesie for his little brother. Then she decided to throw in one for dad as well.

I decided to surprise Deb and threw in this cute little zippered pouch for her as well.

If you would like to purchase ties like any of these they are $10 for the tie onesie, or the jr. tie & $12 for a mans tie {+ shipping, if applicable}. You can choose the colors/prints/fabrics and I will try to find fabric as close to what you request as possible.  Contact me at: chelscraps (@) yahoo.com.

{easter egg pennant banner}

This was another one of our craft group projects that we made about a month ago!  

The pennants are made from pages from an old book, then distressed with ink.  The eggs are made from two-layers of scrapbook paper (giving a 3d effect) and then glued to the page.  The pages then are glued to the twine.

If you would like to purchase an egg pennant banner like this one they are $12 {+ shipping, if applicable}.  The twine measures approximately 88" wide from end to end. Colors may vary slightly depending on availability.  Contact me at: chelscraps (@) yahoo.com.
