~my handmade photo bag~

I used my favorite photo of my Grandchildren
and vintage fabrics, trim, buttons
to made this small sling bag..

I love this photo of Bella & Sam



Many of you know how I enjoy showing off
of my grandchildren "the loves of my life".
When I've needed a large tote in the past I used this one
with photos of Bella & Sam..
It needed to be retired so I
made the small one.

Hey Isabella; How cute is your small bag. Bella and Sam are so cute, what a great photo of them. And a great idea to show off the photos with out taking them out.

Hi Dear Mary:
I agree with Mary; Sam is a Cutie Patootie : ) and Isa is a dreamie young lady; an Italian beauty!!!
Honey, it is too cold in Ohio : ( It will be about 80 here today : ) and
breezy.
I love the bags and I am remiss in that I have yet to blog blog about my "a Bohemian Market" bag yet; I have the luck of the workshops so close. The ladies that instruct and that take the classes are soooooooooooooooooooooooooo nice. The owner, Nancy, is like you and me and she is really super nice : )
Are you making more charms? I really like the round ones. I will learn one day : )
Life is good
Love & Peace
