I made a new pattern this week that incorporated a decorative ring on the flap. As I contemplated what to use for the ring I spent some time browsing other designer’s stores and their use of beads on bags. I found too many to show you all of them but thought these were really unique and wanted to share them with you.
The Emma Woodhouse Tote by Schtuff. A lot of hand work went into this handbag.
Deb used a bead on her Mamma Mia Tote. This tote shouts, bright, cheerful, spacious, and classy.
Last on my list but certainly not least is this beautifully beaded purse from FoursightDesigns. I love the colors and the beads make it absolutely superb.
I could have added so many more examples but hope, like me, you found each of these unique handbags beautifully designed using beads to embellish the final project. After viewing all of these I finished up my “Back to Basics” handbag, not quite as colorful as these but it fit my polka dot theme so I was pleased.
