DIGGThis handbag was truly a labour of love by a mother and daughter team. This is our first ever handbag! This bag was inspired by Marie Antoinette and all things vintage and French. This particular bag is meant to look like the bodice of one of Marie Antoinette's lucious gowns. Every part of this bag was stitched by hand -- no machines! And every flower was made by hand and has a pearl stitched into the centre of it. We printed out a portrait of Marie Antoinette and framed with a vintage piece of jewellery that looked oh so French to us! This was a very labour intensive project that took a lot of hours, but we had lots of fun and are very pleased with the outcome. We'd like to be considered for the All That Glitters category. Thanks!
