Another powerful song was her performance of Gypsies, Tramps & Thieves, reminiscent of dirt road travel, bonfires, stolen kisses and dancing under a million stars. This new collection of festival bags I've been working on for Urban Heirlooms is a kind of tribute, inspired by a song my young ears probably had no business hearing at the time!

Rustic hardware: authentic antique brass keys and antique brass studs, plus chunky antique brass chain link for an element of surprise!
I hope I can squeeze in a photo of a third bag before my show. After years of hoarding vintage textiles, I'm just excited that I finally committed this idea to leather and lace. Happiness!
I watched that show too. Very entertaining for a variety show. These are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bags!! I love the mix of leather and lace!
