GOLDEN FALL - a graceful and versatile handmade shoulder bag

Warm and soft at the touch, golden and graceful at the sight, this fine cloth shoulder bag is perfectly tuned with Fall's colors. 

It takes less than a second to catch its versatile nature: cute and elegant when worn at special occasions, functional and capacious when choosen as a companion in your daily routine.

The warm brown lining matches with the bright chocholate tones of the satin weave trimmings that pace along the curve flap margins.

Lantern Bug always has watchful eyes for details - look at the right bottom: an organdie-covered handmade button and a satin weave golden-stitched ribbon keep your autumn-colored treasure fastened in such a cute way!

Golden Fall has been exposed at the ArteStrasse fair in Brescia, reaching so much approval and appreciation. Don't miss out the chance to make it yours: gift yourself or a loved-one the warm and bright colors of the Autumn.

ArteStrasse - Brescia

Elena and Miriam are two girls fond for the handmaking - cute and colorful paper bracelets, elegant hardstone pendants and naturally-looking wooden earrings. 

You can find them and their worthy creations on Sunday, September 25th at the ArteStrasse fair in via Carlo Cattaneo, Brescia. 

Chances are to see me there too...! 
I've been invited by the girls, so I'm working hard to craft a bag for the occasion, I hope to succeed in the venture! 

Soon you'll know the leading theme of the idea..tomorrow's September 21st, Fall and its golden colors are coming...

Inspiring Flowers (3) - Done!

Flowerly inspired by Zara's TRF S/S '10 collection colors and patterns, this pretty shoulder bag is suitable both for your daily routine and for special occasions. Nice would result matching it with a beige dress or coat, and even better would be a flower-themed hair slide!

The outer part is made entirely of tough printed cotton fabric, while the lining is made of a gentle beige-colored synthetic material. 

Coordinated to the print, there are a particular old rose decorative plastic button on the front and a functional zipper on the inside. The shoulder strap in hardware is adjustable, as you can easily take how many bows you want off the chain.

Soon loads of pictures and further details of the item!
