St. Louis Cardinals Fans --- Take a Look at This!!!




This blue jean purse is similar to the popular "Bootie Bag" now being sold in local boutiques for up to $150.00 each. BUT...no one has this one with St. Louis Cardinals Baseball fabric inside. I love this purse so much I want to keep it for myself. The inside is fully lined with the Cardinals fabric and then lined again with a stiff side and bottom to make it stand on its own. The clear plastic "bamboo" handles coordinate perfectly. And the belt...WOW. One of a kind!!!!!!! Because of the time spent in making this purse, and the rarity of the fabric (no longer being manufactured - it sells for about $50.00 per yard on ebay). I am offering this special one-of-a-kind purse to you for $125.00 plus $5.00 shipping. Here are some pictures -- back, front and interior.

Fringed Blue Jean Purse

Here is another style of Blue Jean purse. The fully lined, quilted interior has four pockets. It closes with a 16mm, polished nickel, magnetic snap and has a 23" drop handle. The dimensions are 16" across and 8" tall. The hand-tied fringe is 9" long. The black faux leather belt has a silvertone buckle. Here is what the red print lining looks like. This purse is available for $25.00 plus $5.00 shipping.

I have many styles of bluejean purses.


I am very excited to tell you that I have a new grouping of bluejean purses. This one has a flat bottom 5" gusset. It is fully lined with a quilted print of blue, purple, yellow and green. The four interior pockets are perfect for makeup, credit cards, cellphone,etc. and, of course, the five exterior pockets all work. It closes with a 16mm, polished nickel, magnetic snap. The dimensions are 9" tall and 17 " across. The black leather belt has a silvertone buckle and findings. The handles have a 23" drop which fits perfectly over your shoulder.
