Seeing red

It's countdown time to christmas day and time is running out! There's still time to pick up one of these beautifully festive clutch bags though. Each one is made from a vibrant red or orange fabric with a flash of metallic gold to really celebrate the season.

Scarlet threesome

My lovely aunty Judith in Australia recently ordered some Cheeky Leopard clutch bags to be sent over to her as gifts for family and friends. They were obviously well received as she has ordered three more! One was a re-make of a clutch she already had, but she also wanted two more, so I decided to make some up especially for her. All of them are in tones of red and they make a fabulous scarlet threesome!

The bag below is a remake of the bag Judith bought a few months ago.

I love the vibrancy of the red and the classic Japanese blossom motif.

Ruby Tuesday

I recently added this ruby stunner to my store. It's a handbag made from a vintage obi fabric given to me by a lovely Japanese couple when I was in Tokyo last November. I love the vibrant red colour and mixed with the gold, it really makes a statement! There is an orange and white blossom design on the outside and for the lining I used a bright orange linen fabric to match the flowers. This bag would look stunning used as a clutch bag tucked under the arm and worn with a little black cocktail dress or as a handbag, worn over the shoulder with a fresh white summer shift.
