from rags to riches

Hello! I made a purse and did some decoupage work today. The purse isn't all so great because I don't have a sewing machine and had to hand stitch, and use my handi stitch..heh, i would so much rather have a sewing machine. ::crosses fingers::

i made this purse out of an old dress. the shiny thing in the middle is a zipper. i did it all freehand with no pattern, so the straps were a little bit longer than i intended. and it was the first purse i had ever attempted.

this is a little decoupage box that i made from the container that a wallet came in.

grrr..i really hate how i have to post my picture links instead of the pictures. it never seems to work for me!
anyway, everyone have a great night!
