Almost a Month

I can't believe it has been almost a month now, I have been working on the site. Being a perfectionist that I am, off course I did not expect it to be simple. I do not want to put something out just for the sake of putting something out. I wanted to put something that will not only appeal to me but also everyone else. I am almost there. I am this close and will unveil the end product soon. I am excited but yet weary of the outcome as my life will perhaps alter but with excitement.

Not Yet Named

This handbag has a story. It was actually the very first bag I created. It looked different, it had a mind of its own and I did not like it. So, it just stayed there in a corner waiting for a miracle. I would look at it whenever looking for an idea but nothing would stick. I obviously had no idea what I wanted to do with any bag less again this one. Apparently, the creative juices had not kicked in, not taken over yet.

 
Months passed before I took another look at it and one day, it hit me.  This is the way I work. I set things aside. I may not see its use for the moment but it will come to me later. So, I never throw anything away, I always see the use for it.

As you can see, it was completely redesigned. I added more vibrant colors, combined the two fabrics since blue and green goes together but was not too kin on using silk.  

So, I painted another piece of a complementary color just for the side and voila! I have not yet named her; hopefully, I will soon but here she is. Don't you like what she looks today? Where to take her, where to take her...
