Bought a Silk Hand Made Bag for my iTouch

August 7th, 2008

I recently bought this cool silk mini-purse from Eclectic Lady on Etsy. It’s hand crotcheted (is that a word?) and looks great when you wear a jacket and sling it over your chest. I needed something to carry my iTouch in when I am out and about, and I wanted something unique.

Which brings me to thinking, as usual, about how to buy things in a way that helps the world somehow. I like to buy things locally, things handmade by artists, or something that is eco-friendly. Shopping on Etsy is a great way to help support artists, craftspersons and anyone with a skill they care to share.

Anyway, that’s my two cents, plus I love my new bag. It fits my iTouch like a glove and has room for the earbuds, a lipstick, credit card and ID, plus some keys. Everything I need when I take a walk and don’t care to lug my regular purse around.
