Ruffles and Canvas Shopping Totes

Ruffles & Totes, a set on Flickr.

Today I added many new photos to Flickr photo-stream. Including my newest canvas tote bags with lots of ruffles and one of a kind pins.  Here are closeup of some of my favorites:

Recently, I have received inquiries from my Etsy Shop, IsaCreationsVintage, about items I have on my blog, Pinterest Boards and or shows but are not currently listed in my Etsy shop.  I wish I had more time to continually add listing to my Etsy shop.  I certainly want to but I have not been successful at it.  Lately, as you may have notice from my most recent posting, I have been doing lots of sewing (Tote Bags) and not much in regards to adding listing to my Etsy shop. 

Usually, after I create a batch of inventory, I like to take pictures.  I try to take group pictures and closeup pictures of my work since most of it is one of a kind due to the type of materials I use.  Since most of the materials are from felted wool sweaters or vintage materials, this usually results in one of a kind items.  So, as a result of some recent inquiries I am going to try something new, an experiment of sorts.    I started to create sets of photos on my Flickr account, IsaWagner.

To date I have created these sets of photos of items I have available for sale but have not yet made it's to my Etsy shop.   I just listed a few sachets (small and larger size), paper dresses, vintage hankie and some of my new totes on my Etsy shop.  So, if you are interested in one of these type of items but would prefer a different color or style, then you can check out my inventory on the Flickr sets (links below).  All the photos are identified by an image number, so in the Etsy Conversation, please provide the IMG #.

FYI -  Since I took the Lavender Scented Sachets photos before the Sugar Plum Bazaar, there will be some Sachets I have already sold but you can always contact me via my Etsy shop, IsaCreationsVintage and ask me if an item you are interested in is available.

I completed many new tote bags. I have been sewing up a storm but having fun using many vintage embroidered linens, vintage crochet doilies, vintage lace and vintage jewelry. I buy so many of these materials at estate sales mostly because I just like them. It's a great feeling to finally use them to create something new. Up-cycling is something I truly enjoy.

I have also played with lots and lots of ruffles!  I have been thinking about making these tote bags with ruffles for many months now.  I used some of my favorite fabrics on these ruffles.  The only problem is I have too many favorites.  I find myself being "attached" to some of these bags but I know when it comes times for all the summer shows, I will be ready to part with them (assuming people even want to purchase them).

Too many pictures to add to this post so I thought I would try something different.

A Slide show using Flickr. When you click on one of the photos above, it will take you to my Flickr album "Tote Bags with a Vintage Flair and or Ruffles."  This will show you one photo at a time but you then have to click the next photo.  However, if you look on the right side column, and you click on the set "Tote Bags with a Vintage Flair and or Ruffles" then it will take you to where you can click on slideshow and view the photos in a slideshow format.
