^the new tote i made for school. i think it's my favorite yet! it's sort of hard to tell, but it's made of chocolate brown corduroy. the inside is just a simple mint green.

i am going to start making some totes and purses to sell (hopefully i can become a partner in craft on cutxpaste.com) and i'm working on ideas for decoration and such. there are a few ideas i already have, but i want to know what other people would like as embellishments. so, what would you like to see on a purse or tote that would make you have to have it?
