Fabulous Bags

What’s so great about a Fabulous Bag?

It still fits even if you gain 5lbs.


Each Fabulous Bag started its life as a plain boring purse. A little interesting fabric here some vintage trim there, add a few crystals and rhinestones a dab of paint and voila!

That bag is Fabulous!

Artist’s note- these bags are recycled from thrift store finds. This means they have been gently used by someone else and then discarded. Colors and styles will vary and duplicates are well almost impossible- similar yes- exact? No. All effort is made to clean and sanitize each purse before they are remade into their fabulous new self. If the bag is not marked vintage then it was purchased new with the tags still on it and never used.
