When I walked by the Tiffany store--which was loaded with teenagers, wtf? I was 24 before I set foot in a Tiffany store--I saw that they had an interesting embroidery display. Not sure if this means cross-stitchers are cool--especially since they've mixed embroidery tools with sewing thread, but there you have it. (I didn't photograph the other display with "T is for Tiffany." We were in a crush of people.)
When I was downloading the photo from my phone, I found this picture I took of my aunt's birthday gift. I bought the premade felt purse and pieces, and sewed them together. But, and this is what I am most proud of, the zipper pull was missing from the purse. We bought an earring at Target, well we bought the pair but just used one, and turned it into a pull. Since the balls in the flower centers are beaded, it was perfect.
The house still isn't cleaning itself. Why hasn't the Jetsons become our reality? I think scientists just want to keep women down.

UGH!! I hate going to the mall! But there are times when one has to, like when the boys want to go to the Lego store!
Love the little felted purse!
Still waiting for my house to clean itself too - dream on little dreamers!
I didn't go into a Tiffany store 'til I was in my 40's. I feel so deprived! WTF is exactly right!
Too true, little girls don't need Tiffanys!
Very cute purse, great idea for the pull.
I am afraid I am a lot like the dude; I try to shop only on weekday mornings because I can't stand the people... want to get in and out. My husband virtually never goes.
What is it with guys and shopping? It's as though they're allergic! I've never set foot in a Tiffany's. Cute purse!
ha ha ha on the last paragraph! I'm still waiting for that too. Best for me not to turn around as I type this as I might be attacked by dust bunnies!
I've never been inside Tiffany's and I'm way older than 24!
Love the colours on that little purse.
What a great little purse, love the bright colors!
I hope you share the secret when you figure out the house cleaning thing :)
WTF is so right! The daughter of one of my bosses gets a Christmas gift from Tiffanys each year and she's only 15! I didn't get anything from Tiffanys until I was married a few years ago and I can promise you that the glass tray cost nowhere near what my boss spends each year. However I think my favorite part of the gift was the beautiful blue box. It now houses all of my Belle Soie silks.
Maybe one day I will actually buy something from Tiffanys for myself.......and not max out my credit card!
It's always an experience shopping with Eric too. Love the gift - and the earring was a great save! I am so ready for my house to be self-cleaning for sure!
I'm, uh, just a little older than those teenagers and I have yet to step foot in a Tiffany's store! Oh, to dream.
Nice job on the purse!
Teenagers do not belong in Tiffany, but they also don't belong in Abercrombie or whatever the name of that RIDICULOUSLY overpriced store is. Who are these parents that can afford to buy their kids $200 jeans?
