Owl Bags V2 & Bowtie Hair Clips


 Hey all! A quick post on some of the things I sold at FanExpo this year! Read my remarks carefully, as some of these items are still for sale!

All my items are, of course, handmade, and have plenty of blood, sweat and tears put into them. :D And did I mention they're all one-of-a-kind?

I sold these charming Owl bags at our table--Sweet Geeks--at FanExpo! All of them are fully lined, machine washable, and utterly adorable. :D  They go for 50$ apiece.

Sweet Geeks now has a Facebook group! Go and like us on Facebook! :D

These two gray ones are essentially the same, but I used different buttons for the eyes. Both sold fairly quickly. The white one (or light gray one, as some people refer to it) sold first, and very quickly. I really liked the stark contrast on this bag, with the electric, bright eyes. :D  I also remade the original bag, as I still had the fabric for it and I had so many compliments on it. ;D Unfortunately, that fabric is all finished, which makes me very sad...





^This is probably my other favourite from this batch of owls. :D I was able to find a light fabric in the exact same pattern as the rest of the bag! :D The paisleys were not as well received. I am told that people generally don't like paisley. Personally I think that this particular paisley is quite nice, but the problem might be that it is pink...



<-This lovely owl was not sold at the convention and is still looking for a home. Contact me if you are interested in purchasing this great bag! ;D

Now we are getting into my hair clip bow ties. They are awesome because they can be worn as hair clips OR bow ties, so long as you have a button up shirt, you simply clip it on. :D

They sold for 12$ apiece, simply because of the sheer amount of hand-stitching required for these. And to help make up for the loss on the owls (which I don't get paid minimum wage for my hours on).


There are still still 6 of these left! Contact me, and I will bother to check what colours are left... XD
