Bag Lady Angel

Chas · September 16, 2010 ·

My family has a long line of crafters… I remember my Nannie Red was always busy with some type of craft project, whether it be crocheting the grandkids a pair of slippers or making accessories for her kitchen or embroidering pillow cases for her family for Christmas… her hands always had the next project going. My Mother, and her two sisters are very craft savvy and then their youngest brother married a wonderful lady who of course was crafty. ๐Ÿ™‚ *hooray!*

A long while back Aunt Tracey set up at craft fairs with her Mom and Dad and they would make some of the prettiest things.
Some of my favorite memories are the festivals that we attended and Tracey’s family had a booth. It is the same festival I set up in a few years back. ๐Ÿ™‚

At my recent visit to the Farmer’s Market, many ladies asked me if I had something made to house grocery store sacks.
I didn’t have anything made.
I realized I could easily make up a sleeve with some elastic and call it good, but I just couldn’t… I adore my bag angel and I thought others might like them too.

I am pretty pleased with her turnout considering I just had to ‘wing it’.
I hope to post her on etsy today.
Of course, you can get her with any color of skirt and hair ribbon… she needs to color coordinate with your room! ๐Ÿ™‚

She’s a bit like me and needs a little tan. 
 
She’s like me in other ways too
*cough*
She has a bit of a full belly, once you add your bags…
but, we won’t talk about that right now. ๐Ÿ˜‰
 
I do love her patchwork apron. 
I wouldn’t mind having one myself.
Every lady needs an apron when working in their kitchen.
I think she is a sweet addition to any home. On the wall in your country kitchen or hanging on a hook in  your laundry room or just on your back door. Having a convenient place to store those grocery sacks is a good thing.
For now, I have to run… lots to accomplish this week. 
Have a beautiful day!
