Yay! Four Features in One Week!

It has been a wonderful week for me on Etsy. Yesterday I discovered that my Downtown Bag in Lilac and Chocolate made it to the front page. Thanks Etsy! It was created by an administrator browsing through Etsy's categories. I received a lot of traffic to my shop because of this feature. :)

Today I learned that my Wayfarer Purse with a galloping horse applique is featured in Etsy's gift guide, Equestrian Prep!

My Limited Edition Downtown Bag made it into two Storque articles this past week! It was featured in Summer Fashion Showcase on June 8th and Etsy Finds: Bag Lady on June 10th. Thanks Etsy!

Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend! :)

The Pesky Cat's Day Dream

Katzenhohle by Dornroeschen Filzunikate I recently came across this incredible cat bed made by German artist Dornroeschen Filzunikate. This beautiful piece of functional art called a Katzenhohle , cat cave, is handmade of felted wool. It's definitely the most unique cat bed I have ever seen. It would bring a bit of nature into my urban NYC home. I think my Anni would love a cat cave although her favorite spots right now are the pillow behind my head in bed, a straw basket that was meant to store magazines and a storage box made from fabric that becomes a hammock when she sleeps in it. My sweet Anni FOX 5 Update : A while back I wrote a post about a story that Fox 5 news was doing on Etsy and the handmade market. I was interviewed in my studio as part of the feature. An Etsy press agent recently informed me that the story aired April 15th and he also missed it. He said he is trying to get a copy of it from the studio. I'll be sure to post a link to it when it becomes availab...

Music Inspired

Pink Floyd Bowie Red Hot Chili Peppers Hand-painted hazmat suit with images from Pink Floyd The Wall. This is still a work in progress. Plan to wear to a Halloween party this year. Below shows back of suit. Closet door painted by me as a teenager around 1980. Music and art has always been a big part of my life. In the past year I have added a music-inspired collection of bags to my shop. The appliques are hand-cut and then machine stitched to the bag. No two bags are ever exactly alike. One-of-a-kind and all handmade by me in my studio from start to finish. See the entire collection here.
