Happy Beaded Valentine's Day!

I finally finished working on my little beaded heart-shaped purse just in time for Valentine's Day! :D

This purse was a custom order through my Etsy shop. It's the first purse I have ever made! :D

The design was inspired by a vintage Valentine & features a beaded white cat & Scottie dog. They were created using Japanese size 15 seed beads, size 13 charlottes & micro-bugle beads. The dog's collar features Preciosa's genuine Czech crystal rosemontees.

The front panel of the purse is completely beaded & the back panel is personalized:)

The purse is completed with a glass beaded chain and an Ultrasuede lining.

This one-of-a-kind purse measures 14cm x 14cm & took nearly 40 hours to create from start to finish. Soon it will be making the flight to London, England - a city I absolutely love! Wish I could go too! :D
