Here’s a sneak peek into the world of La Cartera! 

New design ideas for the weekend, special events, and first words.

Creative Designs

What do you think of the Polka Dot Wonder?  It’s a contemporary take on a retro style.  Upcycling a polka dot curtain and adding linen fabric as the main body, created this layered beauty.  Layering the fabric creates one roomy pocket in the front and back of the purse with dual side openings.

  The main body has a recessed zipper closure.  I’m still working on the finishing touches, but I wanted to share.  I’m ready to use my black wooden handles to make another.  I really had fun with this one.

Special Event
