I have been crocheting since I was a little girl. I like to work in a very small scale, producing tiny lace doilies, encircled in sterling silver, that you can wear. I also make larger doilies from vintage patterns and frame them under glass, or use them to embellish silk scarves. http://mccordworks.com 713-899-2814 Newsletter, bio & more!

b.bags was born August of 2008 when I, Lora Bunge, decided that I wanted to try my hand at sewing some simple bags out of upcycled and repurposed materials on my "new to me" hand-me-down 1970's Kenmore sewing machine. One thing led to another, and here we are today! All of my handbags are made out of upcycled clothes, fabrics, buttons, belts, bracelets, ties, you name it. I LOVE the concept of reusing materials and giving new life to something that may have otherwise ended up in the dump. And, of course, every b.bag is designed and handmade by yours truly! For more information about purchasing b.bags please check out my etsy webpage at www.bbags22.etsy.com 507-358-3620 Facebook Fan Page
