I hope you had a chance to visit the San Francisco Pacific Orchid Exposition last week. Orchids have many different varieties and colors. They have interesting petals and are easy to take care of. The next frame I want to introduce to you is this elegant white orchids decorative frame. The frame was added onto the vintage style Decorative Frames section of ArBebe. This frame is 100% handmade by solid wood, vintage wallpaper and vintage recycled materials, vintage book page from the 1960's and the white orchid image from the original 2009 calendar catalog.

Creamy Milkshake | Leather Purse

A cup of creamy milkshake - cool and refreshing. Who would refuse it? The design of this purse is really unique and interesting. I folded the leather at the bottom of the purse to add volume for storage and support.  The handles were again made of 9-oz veg tanned leather. The handles were hand-stitched by wrapping them by the leather, which formed the round shape of the purse. Inside the purse there are one zipper pocket and two open pocket for extra storage and organization of your belongings. Finally, I made a tag hanging on one side, which added the highlight to the purse.

The Little Vintage Collection | Clutch Box (Part II)

If you like vintage style, don't miss it!

Here are five different clutch boxes with the same theme - vintage design. Each box is wrapped both inside and outside. The size of the box is not big but it was really time consuming to finish it step by step. After trying a few measurements, I finally got the right size of fabric on the sides of the opening. All inner fabric uses Japanese Yuma. The bow opening on the top contains over 50 little sparky rhinestone.  The chain can be removed. Great for party as well.

Moose in the Forest | Leather Shoulder Bag

The little red moose was done by cross stitches. The cover of the purse was cut by following the original edge of the leather hide that added interesting curve. The liner was made of floral fabric. It had one zipper compartment inside.

Blue Cocoa | Tri-Fold Handstitched Leather Purse

Brown leather + light blue thread, that was how Blue Cocoa came from.

This purse has three compartments. When you open the main cover, it shows the inner section. After you open the second cover, it has two inside compartments and one zipper pocket. I hope my descriptions are clear. If not, please just go ahead and look at the pictures. This purse is great for organizing all your stuff. A blue seam was hand-stitched around the cover to define its shape.
 
Most parts of the purse were hand-stitched. The leather pieces was first hand cut, and then the holes were hand punched, and the purse was hand stitched.

Enjoy!

Everything But Ordinary - Brown | Leather Clutch Bag

If you like everything but ordinary, you will love this clutch bag.You will love the uneven sides and the unusual cover shape.

This clutch bag has a zipper opening that ensure nothing would fall out. Put your phone, keys money and cards inside, and that's all you need for going to the party. Before cutting the leather hide apart, I saved the piece with the "made in Italy" stamp on the back. Since one large leather hide only had once little stamp on the back, I planned to use this unique piece as the cover of this clutch bag. The leather was made in Italy, yet this clutch bag was made in the USA. Hope you are not confused ;)

Up Next.....

I really like this Italian leather hide so I just ordered more.

More purses are coming on the way....




Coffee - Mocha | Leather Purse

- Coffee or mocha?
- Mocha please.

I've had the design ideal of making a large thin purse in mind for a long...time. However, the problem was that most leather was so soft and easy to be bended. It was until I found this Italian leather hide - it's just perfect for the design. Nice brown color with semi-gloss finish.

Cotton lace was added on the top to bring up the soft temper. The straps are made of veg-tanned leather (the color will get deeper and deeper and eventually turn into honey brown color).   The tag is made of the leather piece, lace and a big mother of pearl with the carved letter "M".
