Give away x 3 -Which color next?

Well, ones computer acting up and going on a strike is really not something one wants. How technology dependant we are! At least us at home.
While the technician tries to settle a deal with the bundle of chips and wires my laptop is; I go on working twice as much because I have more time with wool and less time in front of the screen!


It's been a while since I hosted a give away. It's not a demagogical move it's more of a "being grateful and showing it" move. It's not about how many sales, magazine/blog features and/or adulation I might receive. Naturally we all like those (especially the sales because they provide the cash for more supplies for more experiments and fun ...essential my dear Watson...); but this will be a give away to thank all of those who come here and comment a few lines every time I post something in an attempt to reach out to the big world out there. I don't want to get sappy (or silly) but you are my critics, my crafty support, knowledge source... and laughter fountain... many I've got to know outside the blog and into more friendly base via emails and it just makes ones world so much bigger to talk to people form different places and walks of life. Advantages of technology.

Anyway, without any (more) further blabla... here is the thing: You've all seen my -so far 7- Lily Seed handbags, all in my DaWanda shop now.



So, to participate in this give away, you just have to leave a comment on this post telling me which is the next color -or combination of colors- you would like to see or think would fit this type of bag.
Next week friday 18th, we will draw 3 names from a hat...and each will get one of this little pendants...


The bag resulting from this "collaboration" will also come with a surprise or two :) But that for later!

So...go on... which color is next?

Lily Seed Hand bag: Jewelled.

Someone asked me, when I was introducing the Charcoal Gray Seed Handbag and the Natural Seed Handbag, where was the colour. I' m known for my very colorful creations... well... fear not. Here it is:



This "Jewelled Seed hand bag" was also hand felted with merino wool in different colors: yellow, green, blue. To create the sumptuous surface design, hand dyed and hand spun yarn (by mio) was used; as well as linen fibres and bamboo. The finnal touch, beads hand sewn around the bag creating pockets of sparkles!
It is linned with white, plain cotton fabric.
It has two handles which, as with the other handbags, are hand felted and machine sewn to create a bit of an irregular coil... more organic.

It's already in my shop where you can also see more pictures of the details of this Jewelled Seed Handbag.
It is customizable, of course. You just have to contact me: www.florcita.eu
