Purse pretties

May 2nd, 2007

This is an interesting item. It’s a collaboration between me and hullabaloo.

I was doing a little intra-etsy networking and I came across this shop. I’d wanted to network with someone who makes purses and do something like this for quite a while - add my bead embroidery to a fine object made by someone who you know….sews things together not just sews millions of doodads onto backing, which is about all I can muster.

The potential for things like this is one reason I think I’m going to keep my etsy shop no matter what happens. I got to meet a really nice, fun artist in the Chicago area, I made something great, and she’s been kind enough to buy a couple of my necklaces.

In other news I’m a little antsy in the pantsy about a large order of sterling silver from HK. I’ve dealt with these people before and they are fab - the mail tracking shows that it left HK but no delivery (how is it that every country has less confusing post than we do???) so I’m assuming it’s being prodded in customs. Did I buy insurance? Like an idiot, I did NOT.
