I get by with a little help from my friends



I am participating in the Boutique Sidekicks CLOSURES Launch this week on eBay . In this collaboration, each member chose a partner (our sidekick) and we sent each other a type of closure. My partner & friend for this launch is Cora of Ophelia Miller Boutique.

Cora sent me this closure to work with. I decided to split the pieces; using the ring as an accent on the messenger flap & using the clip as a convenient key clip inside the bag.

When I received my closure, I start designing this OOAK : one of a kind bag. I created the chic patchwork from fabrics by Amy Butler & Anna Maria. Sling bags are so popular right now...I knew this was the perfect style for my fun closure. You can find the complete listing for this bag by clicking on the picture above.

I also sent Cora a closure....overall buckles! :-) She designed & created a beautiful retro laptop/messenger bag; perfect for Back to School! Click here for a peek at Cora's bag!

It's fun to get a little help from your friends! Thanks Cora! :-)
