I adore the new coin purses from Alphabet Bags, they are so sweet! Each has been screen printed with black ink onto natural white cotton so there is a vintage look to them, especially with the clasp! I also like the black trim and that each purse has been laminated to protect from stains and marks.

Wouldn’t the coin purses look cute displayed in a shadow box — you could have four boxes with four purses to spell something and mount them on the wall over your dressing table or dresser. That would be quirky and sweet! Alphabet bags has totes too as you can see above. Old Bag is my favorite – ha ha ha! Hayley & Lucas did such a sweet job on this collection — congrats you two!

Oooh, a wonderful friend bought me the ‘C’ bag a while back. I think maybe I now need to treat myself to the matching purse ;0)

Love the coin purses! They are exactly what I have been looking for.

…..with an ‘X’ on one because I like the last letter in my name more than the first :)

Thanks for posting about them Holly!

Hi Holly, I just wanted to stop by your blog and thank you for that interview you did with Kelly Rae. I’m doing her e-course and found your interview insightful and helpful. An added bonus is now knowing about your blog here ;) Thanks again for sharing.

Ooh, I am a typography lover!! I just acquired some cushions with an ampersand on them, and they look fab. I like the ‘you look lovely today’ tote. I’m starting to buy my Xmas presents now, so this is very timely. Thanks Holly. :)

Ok. I gave in and bought the ‘x’ purse.

And, I can say that their shipping prices are brilliant, and the shipping is FAST, and the purses are GORGEOUS :)
