Repurposed Banner Bags for Blue Genie Art Bazaar

I’ve been making repurposed banner bags with webbing handles as a collaboration with Blue Genie Art Bazaar using banners they have from past holiday bazaars and May Markets. They are large tote bags measuring 18”x16”, great size for an overnight, gym or swim bag, etc. The material is stiff enough that I have to wrestle it a bit in the corners to turn it right side out after sewing, so I don’t want to try smaller totes because of that from this material. There is a little bit of distressing due to these being used banners. I think they’ve turned out nicely.

They will be sold in their webstore after the bags are photographed and listed. They are kind of limited edition as the material is limited, for now I’ve cut as many bags as I can from the material I was given for this purpose.

Getting back to work in 2022

Had a very successful Blue Genie Art Bazaar 2021 and sold pretty well, thanks everyone for your support! Will be adding more stock to the BGAB Online shop as I make it.

Filed my 2021 Taxable Sales and am getting back into the studio to work. It’s cold this morning, thankful for my little space heater. Will wait until later in the day to cut more vinyl because my cutting table is outside. Getting back to my customs queue, and will be building stock up again, and listing stuff in my Etsy shop.
