~Handbag Monday~
Today, I’m going to
show off my Christmas gift to me. It’s from a shop called Swarm and is located
overseas. I remember perusing a magazine and her handbags were featured. I
thought this is way cool for, you see, the handbags are made from paintings.
So
I splurged when an email came my way from Swarm with free shipping. Check this
out:
Don’t you love this boat scene?
Who would have thought? The handles are sturdy
leather and stitched and fastened with a grommet as well. The whole bag is
lined in a sturdy white canvas. There is a good-sized pocket sewn in as well.
Although may be a bit
large for everyday use, I am going to carry it for a while and test it out.

What do you think?
Would you carry a handbag made from an old painting?

Love the painting on the bag. How original. You're carrying a piece of art.

Hi, Sylvia! I feel the same way. I'm shifting everything to this one and shall see what kind of comments I receive. ox
I have one word to say about that bag -- "awesome!"
Hi, Angela! *clapping hands* I'm so happy you like.
You know how I feel about handbags, but that is really neat. I might even be tempted if there were a Tim Cox or other western artist on it!
Although I hate carrying a hand bag, I always enjoy looking at your designs. My girls would love these.
I don't even carry handbags, but might have to make an exception for this one. I love it! What a great idea!!
Hi, D'Ann! Now that's a good thought, but you wouldn't want to tear up his painting. However, I bet there are some old westerns out there that could be made into a bag.
Hi, Rose! I had to carry a mombag for so long, I didn't really appreciate changing except for church or parties. Ooh, send your girls over to tell me what they think! Thanks for posting.
Hi, Karilyn! I am always amazed by those of you who don't carry a handbag. What do you put your things in? Your lipstick?????
A creative lady used her creativeness and figured out what she could do with it. I'm constantly amazed by people and their genius. Hugs!
I checked out the website. How interesting! I'm sure you will get a lot of compliments on it!
Hi, Melissa! I think her work is interesting. I only wish my bag was a big smaller, but haven't test driven it much to see for sure. Hugs.
Very original! More people can see it and enjoy it than if it were hung on a wall! You're now a walking museum!

I bet you get stopped a lot and asked where you got it from! It's delightful and so unique.
Hi, Liese! I hadn't thought about being a walking museum. That's pretty funny.
Hi, Susan! Yesterday at Sam's the cashier was scanning away and commented on the bag. It's so different from what one sees in a store. Thanks for posting.
