My girlfriend makes handbags. They're really good, and she's been taking orders from people she knows and making them custom, and is saving the money to pay for a cross-country move this summer.

She would like to have some kind of Label which could be printed onto iron-on material and applied to the inside of the bag.

She wants the label to be 'Sirena', with the bottom of the S turned into a mermaid's tail.

She is also an amazing cook, and works in a warehouse - which means winner ges fresh homemade cookies speedily delivered to anywhere in the world.

Ill give it a whirl

Check yer PM's

I take it we just post the designs in JPEG format in this thread?

Can you post or link us to a couple of pictures of the bags? What kind of style are they?

Taken with phone. Bags not actually low-resolution or color-washed.

They're so beautiful.

I have an idea and I will try to do it tonight.

Wow, those are nice. Almost a shame to have an iron-on logo on them (not to disparage the people submitting designs).

Err, so what's the deadline?

I dunno - June 3 we get back from Portland, so that'd be a good date to decide.

Labelwise, this is going to be a little tag to iron on /inside/ the bag. Not an outside logo graphic thing, but a little label that tells you who made it thing.

N.B.: Bags are for sale. Thirty dollars. Whatever that means in british money these days - what, a pound and a half? Fabrics, handles, colors, snaps, pockets, &c all made to order.
