Bagsy Me First combines two things I love, bags and books.
I love the beautiful bags that have been made from book covers.
The owner, Kate, knows how to make a pretty and sturdy handbag.
I can spend hours looking at them, they're gorgeous.
Her work has been featured many times, also on television.
It's fabulous to be able to carry your favorite book with you wherever you go.
I'm amazed by how stunning everything looks.
Kate chooses pretty fabrics for her bags. There's a compartment for a phone and it has a lot of room for everything else you might need.
She started her business when she made a bag from a book she got for her birthday. Things gradually developed from there.
Kate has sold over 700 of her bags already.
I'm totally in love with this shop.
Check out Kate's high quality, terrific handwork.
Have fun browsing...
And enjoy shopping!

ReplyDeleteI lived in London for years as well, so really like reading books that hark back to that time.
ReplyDeleteI love all these bags! They are so unique! As a huge book lover, I would love to have one of these in my collection!
ReplyDeleteThey are the perfect accessory for any book lover AND even though it's a little sad the books need to be "gutted" to make a bag I was happy to find that you can have the pages of your chosen book saved and re-covered in matching fabric which is a wonderful idea!!

ReplyDeleteThese are amazing bags. I would have never thought to turn a book into a bag or clutch or coin purse :) I also like that she has some children's type books so you could buy one of these for a teen or young girl :)
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of this book or author which sometimes is good before I read a book :) That's the whole reason I'd like to read it!
ReplyDeleteThey are really cute and unique! :)

ReplyDeleteI love books clutch, because sometimes their titles tell the stories of our lives
ReplyDeleteThese bags are the ideal accesory for a book lover like me.
ReplyDeleteI cannot even tell you how happy it made me to see the coin purses made with the little green Beatrix Potter books! They look exactly like the ones that I'd borrow from the school library in kindergarten! (Years later, I actually plotted to steal the books via a friend's child... Bad, I know. It didn't work out, though.)
ReplyDeleteThe 'I Remember You' bag purse is gorgeous and I love that it has little "feet"! I think it'd look even more beautiful with my tatting shuttles hanging out of it! LOL. ;-)
Thank you so much for the chance!
I'd love to read the book because it sound like my favorite kind of book ... Normal and realistic with characters that come to life and a little bit of knowledge to be gained.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chance!
♥,
Stephanie Grace
