Élodie's babywearing wrap scrap N° : SM-009

One year after ordering a custom-made Bowler-style bag from me, inspired by the version that came out of my creative workshop, Élodie wanted another one in different materials. It is after all a bag that is both chic and highly functional.

One year after ordering a custom-made Bowler-style bag from me, inspired by the version that came out of my creative workshop, Élodie wanted another one in different materials.

It is after all a bag that is both chic and highly functional.

I spent the morning at a Haute-Maroquinerie leather scraps dealer to find the perfect brown to complement her beautiful handwoven babywearing wrap scrap.
The lining was a cotton piece she had thrifted (she's a creative person as well) and that I had bought from her, adding just the right touch of fun on the inside.

After a few assembly adventures, a bag I'm very proud of, and she is too:

Thank you for your package, I love my bag

Common questions

“I’m afraid it won’t be ready in time for an event”

Handmade work takes time: allow 4 to 10 weeks depending on the project. But if you plan far enough ahead, we'll make sure it's ready for the big day.
I can adjust the schedule, suggest a design that fits your deadline, and keep you informed at every step.

What if my fabric is damaged?

That’s common, and most of the time it’s not a problem.
We select the usable areas and I complete with premium materials to ensure strength and durability.

Can I follow the making of my piece as it happens?

You get to choose, and it's a genuine decision to make at the start of the project.

Full updates with photos: I send you photos and sometimes videos at each key stage: cutting, assembly, finishing. You see your fabric come to life step by step. Some people love this. Others find it only makes the waiting harder!

Total surprise: I work away quietly, you see nothing until you open the parcel. For those who want the sense of wonder to be fully intact, right through to the last moment.

Something in between works too: a message after the cutting stage, a photo mid-way, then the surprise finale.

Whatever you choose, one thing I promise: if something along the way needs your input (a motif placement decision, an unexpected colour choice), I'll reach out. You will never be faced with a fait accompli on anything that matters.
