About me

I am an Australian graphic designer (15 years) turned full-time into creating beautiful one-off handmade handbags. I have an extensive collection of beautiful vintage, retro and recycled fabric, which I carefully stash away til it becomes a beautiful handbag for someone special.

After so long as a graphic designer, I found it easy to create all patterns myself - not someone elses. I use a selection of vintage buttons from my Mother's and Grandmother's old button collections to finish off each piece. These bags are truly unique and are always a talking point!

Please contact me if you'd like something custom made - I love a challenge! All my handbags are my own patterns - truly original and my own.

Your lovely bag comes with its own individual swing tag showing just how she was made and with what! And a postcard too!
