It is no secret that I LOVE bags! I am a bag collector. I have more bags in my closet than shoes, and I am not counting pairs. When I saw this uniqueTimmy Woods bag across the room,
I had to find out more about it.

It is beautiful! The outer shell is made of wood and the Santa face is hand painted. The owner said, “I take it out every year the day after Thanksgiving and use it until Christmas.”
 I could see why, it is adorable.

She had to replace the handles and the closure over time.

The lining is leather and has an elastic side band on either side to keep in it's contents.
I loved the sound it made when you closed the wooden shell.

Sweet Coin Purse Tutorial for Teacher Gifts

This time of year is so special to me because I get to show my gratitude for all of the hard work that goes into teaching my daughters. I love to make handmade gifts and this year is no exception. Since money does not grow on trees around here, I looked at my stash (I keep my scraps in hat boxes ) and tried to see what I had a lot of; small zippers, trims, Peltex strips ( from making iPad cases ), fabric scraps and some hardware for key fobs. So I set to work.  Materials: Plastic multipurpose 5" Zipper  Fabric Scraps Lightweight interfacing 808 Pellon Trims (We clipped  key fobs  with 1.5" swivel hooks onto our coin purses . There are tons of tutorials on making key fobs .) Step 1: Print out the Coin Purse Template  PDF.  Cut 2 main fabric, cut 2 lining and 2 interfacing using the template.  Optional: Cut a 2"X2" square of your choice main fabric or lining. This strip of fabric is used to clip a key fob to your coin purse later....
