Wonderful bags. I also make my own from usually my own ideas. But I love the metallic dots. Are they the old puff paint? I need to try a old t shirt too. Thanks for the wonderful pictures.

You have made some beautiful purses. I make purses too and now you have given me some ideas
that I never thought of. Thank you.

Your purses are so very wonderful! You have a special talent to be able to make them up without a pattern! I can't do that well when I have a pattern! Great job!

Those are iron on stones & studs & stars. Find a t-shirt with the decorations already on it (thrift shops are abundant in that stuff for cheap--I get some there too. Wash them & they're ready to go!), then do the stabilizing & go to town making what you want. I have the stuff to put all the stuff on, so I add to them or replace stones (my shirt was about 10 yr. old & missing lots of the stones...thank goodness for "stash" in that kind of stuff too! The purses are washable (cold water, handwash cycle in a laundry bag--air dry after smoothing out). The scraps left from the shirts are cut up & added to the bin for pet bed pillowcase beds. Nothing goes to waste in my house!

Thanks Vicki. Now I can see them since I know what they are..... I have some in my stash too. They have a little iron with them. Looks kinda like a soldering iron. I have never used it. Think I bought it on sale maybe 4 yrs ago. I'll have to dig it out and try it. love your purses too.
