Continuing with my restocking, I today finished another 20 monster purses. This is my second batch of these; not knowing how well they would sell, I only made five on my first attempt. Well, all 5 of them sold over two sales, so I think they will be a popular item. Each one takes me, I think, about 20 minutes to complete, and it is fun to experiment with different expressions and characters.
If you would like to make these for yourself, you can find my tutorial for them here

and entering it at the something old, something new challenge
This blog shows my recycled denim creations, along with tutorials for items I have designed myself. I collect old jeans (a strange collection, I know!) and cut them up to make bags, purses, animals and other items of varying sizes and shapes. I then sell these to raise money for weomen and children in the town of Utange, near Mombasa, in Kenya. I help women to set up their own businesses and am supporting the building of a new school for disabled children.

Love the different looks you get just by moving the pupils in the eyes and rearranging the teeth and tongue...

ReplyDeleteThese are just too cute. I'm sure that these are going to be a consistent seller for you as well as the owl purses. Wishing you much success!
ReplyDeleteAdorable! My 7 year old just bought himself an ipod (with his money he's been saving) and I've been trying to come up with something cute he could put it in. These little monster purses, er storage bags, would be perfect.
