bags for little girls

what a lame title! I really couldn’t think of anything else!

all of the bags are modeled on my new ‘antique’ dummy : ) The dummy is for age 10 to 12 yrs, so these bags are really suitable for 4 to 10 year olds depending on their size.

This one, the yellow dots is slightly different, as its straps go from side to side, rather than front to back, just seeing what is actually better for the the girl who will be trying them out later this week.

Lastly we have this one,

This one is very gentle on the eyes, and all the bags are lined with a little pocket too, so they really are mini versions of my big bags.

I decided to make them have one strap and go across the body rather than like my ‘adult’ bags as I just felt that this was more suitable, I know all children want to carry half the house with them when they go out, but that isn’t that sort of bag, or am I bonkers!

Probably the latter, anyway, I feel a great deal better today, which is excellent, I like our bathrooms, but to be honest, I didn’t really want to spend that much time in them!

Two of these bags will make their way into the shop later this week, I’m going to let my ‘tester’ keep one as payment! They will probably be about $18. Going to work on a commission, and the shopper ideas, and some half made bags I have discovered in the cupboard!

Thanks for all the kind words recently, things I hope to be improving here by the end of April, I hope they will, and I hope it will be sooner : )
