Maid of Paper Fanny Bag

That feeling when you make a bag and it looks like a maid's little apron, haha.

Quite often, I start making things without any specific project in my head, sometimes I change it half way through. I always keep an open mind. 

Very often ideas come to my head when I open boxes with my haberdashery, beads, etc. This is how I decided to use this black lace to decorate this flat clutch bag. 

The idea of adding a belt came later. I wasn't sure how it would work, but I tried anyway. 

So there you go! I have a little 'apron' like fanny bag made of platinum washpapa (washable paper). I added some Swarovski crystals and Czech glass pearls to jazz it up.

I thought it would be good fun to take photos of this bag when worn just to show how quirky it looks. 

I remembered that I made a collar using the same lace, so I thought I would go for that matchy-matchy look.

Another thing that I really like and thought would go well with the whole look is the faux fur shawl made of a fur remnant. 

A lot of vegans don't like promoting faux fur, but I think it is great to show how good quality man-made fabrics are being manufactured nowadays and that you can still enjoy all the fashion accessories without harming anyone.
