Cottage & Family:
bags

I have done a post before on

leather and lace but I just

wanted to inspire you again on

finding vintage leather bags

and embellishing them with doilies

and lace ~

I found these at a flea market

recently but I have to say,

here in Texas, vintage leather

bags are very few and far between ~

I think they are kind of sought after!

It is fun to grab a pile of

doilies and just play around

with placement until you like

how they look ~

I glued mine on with Fabri Fix

that works great with fabric and leather ~

I also added a flower to the front

that was also created using

vintage laces and doilies ~

Here is how they looked

before ~

Besides crowns, skeleton keys and chandeliers, it was all about animal print bags at the Dallas market this year ~

At first I didn't really like them but they kind of grew on me after seeing them everywhere ~ This is a carry on bag for the airlines that I got that rolls, I really like it !

This is a picture of my daughters and niece eating ice cream with their new animal prints ~ don't they look so thrilled :o)
It was about 100 degrees and the humidity was high so by then we were all melting and tired ~

Until next time have a super day !
