We have wanted to create a miniature shopping bag as a petite for a while. We have been using this technique in our Butterfly Surprise pieces for a while and a miniature one sounded like a fun challenge. We start with a small jewelry or accessory shopping bag, deconstruct it, then embroider it. The bag is the re-constructed over a form , the handles are added and we stuff each bag with remnants of silk fabric and luxury scarves. The piece is finished with embroidered butterflies mounted in relief.
- Each petite is framed and mounted in acrylic.
- Each is unique and signed and numbered on the back
- Framed size is 5” wide by 12” high
