Inspiration leading to new items by SimJaTa




Today I have introduced a new range to Bags of Swank by SimJaTa. The 'Cosmetic Bag', the one in the above picture has not been listed yet, maybe at weekend - so keep checking.

Never under estimate the power of blogging. I was reading one of my favourite blogs by Uniquely Yours this morning, were she featured 'Bathroom Items' including some fabulous handmade soaps which can also be found on Folksy. I have been really struggling what to get my friend Sian for her birthday next week, whilst trying to support a fellow crafter on Folksy and found some great idea's on that blog. Then, I thought (light bulb moment) I could make her a cosmetics bag to put some items in - why not give it a go? So, I made 2 today and liked them so much I have added one to my shop.

You can find the lady responsible for my inspiration here (links to her fab blog are on the profile page)



I did also managed to finally conquor the Clutch Bag, also still to come in the Folksy shop (links on top right of page).

So, here is todays new listing - the very first Cosmetics Bag by SimJaTa




Also in my shop is a matching tote bag




So, today's lesson - keep reading those blogs out there you never know what they can lead too.

  1. All lovely, but I do love that top one with the cat on it, very sweet! Mind you I really like the swan pattern too.

    Good luck with your new range!

  2. Thank you very much, glad I could help and thank you for showing my glass cover and coaster.
    Gorgeous make up bag, great idea to have a matching tote. Great gift idea for a teen. They tend to chuck it all in a bag for sleepovers. I know my 14 yr old grandaughter does. Linda
