Doings on Thursday and Friday, July 17 & 18
Media in the studio: Excalibur.
I have covered a small cardboard box to serve as the inside bottom of a series of handbags. All the stuff will live in the box, which can be moved from handbag to handbag. The idea came from something similar that I saw on QVC.
I then started with the box dimensions, and used quarter-inch graph paper to figure out all the dimensions for the parts of the bag.
It has a rectangular base enclosing the carboard box, and then two overlapping triangles. Smaller triangles fill in the triangular gap between the two larger triangles. I finished it off with a thrift shop necklace as a weighted drape to keep the opening closed (see first photo).
