Goin' to the Craft Fair today!

This is where we're going today!  I'm so excited!!!



I needed a new purse.  Not because I don't have three bags that would have been perfectly fine, but I wanted an arty bag that would be fun and show off my crafty-ness... I wanted it to be a cross body bag that would be large enough to hold my stuff, plus whatever goodies I pick up while we're there, but not so big that my shoulder will ache after a day of walking around with it.

It's laminated plastic (Fresh and Easy bags, which I really like because they're made of really thick, strong plastic) and nylon yarn/thread.  I particularly like how the strap turned out.  The flower on the strap is at about corsage level...  And, so you get an idea of the size, it's sitting on one of the chairs that go with Mims's kid-size table...

**I think it's super cheesy to add that the idea for this bag came to me in a dream, even though it totally did.**

I had to make a new wallet too, since my everyday wallet is rather large and quite heavy.  I had picked up this mustache tape last week since I thought it was so funny, and this just seemed like a perfect use for it.

I like it!  It's a little oversized, which should make it easy to find in my bag.  I put a couple of slots in it for my driver's license and atm and medical cards.  Perfect for a day of adventurous wandering.

Okay, we're off for the day!  I will try to do a better job this time of taking pictures of the awesome stuff I see!
