Country Western Theme at Dawanda

Every other month or so, Dawanda, my online selling venue, comes up with a new 'hot trend and theme'. The newest theme revolves around all things country/western. I was browsing idly, and to my surprise my star-spangled denim wristlet was chosen to be featured! That's my wristlet in the middle row, far right. I'm always stunned when the Dawanda team chooses an item from my shop, because there are thousands of shops specializing in bags out there...! I'm currently working on a new product for my shop. It's got nothing to do with make-up bags and purses as such, but then again, the subtitle of my shop does say .....and more! I'm also working on an envelope clutch. I always seem to be doing two things at once! I think I must train myself to concentrate on one thing at a time - I sliced my finger with the rotary cutter. Ouch! It's only a tiny cut, but my...does it bleed. Until next time,

* YOU'RE A STAR* wristlet

I made this wristlet from pre-washed dark blue denim. Denim is a sturdy fabric, so I made sure to use a thicker needle - standard ones will break when sewing the layered end parts of the detachable strap! I have used a contrasting orange coloured thread typically used for jeans. The bag is fully lined with a green-beige cotton print and the front panel is embellished with sparkly stars. When I made it I had all those hard-working highschool graduates in mind who are in the middle of their finals right now! This star-spangled bag would make a fab little gift.
