"Bought as a gift"

I bought this bag as a gift for a special and creative friend. When it arrived I wanted to see what it looked like so I opened wrap and my jaw dropped. This is beautiful and the picture does not do justice! I had trouble giving it to her and the fact that I did once I saw its beauty is a testament to the value I have for her friendship. Another person stated that she felt the shoulder strap was too wide, I didnt find that and felt that it added to the structure and strength of the bag. This artist is very talented and I would recommend her work to every one and any one. Thanks for your work and the ability to give my friend a special gift worthy of her friendship.

"The photo doesn't capture the beauty of this!"

I was surprised and delighted by this bag. The embroidery is exquisite and makes this a very special piece. I was also touched by the lovely packaging. Items like this really give us energy as the hand of the artist has created them. We are privileged to be able to connect with people like you, Wayhu and wish o all the best.

"Beautiful Craftsmanship"

A lady has to have her purse, so I tend to shake it up a bit and change bags often. Both the colors and the design are enhanced by the beading on this cotton batik bag. I feel happy every time I carry it.

"Love at first sight"

The picture doesnt come close to giving this purse justice. Its more than just a pretty bag, its a work of art. I was amazed with the incredible bead work, craftsmanship and vibrant colors.
