Every day I intend to upload one thing that influences me, whether this be imagery, text, video, music or anything random at all. By doing this I hope to create a log of useful reference media.

Handmade bag.
I wanted to create something unique and cute for my mum for mothers day and wanted to use skills I had learnt in the past, so I decided to make this bag. I know it isn't an influence as such, but it felt good to connect back to skills learnt in the past and practice these. I like the very simplistic nature of it, and definitely wanted to keep it for myself. The technique of felting was also very good for creating a soft texture to work with to match the theme of cute and soft. This has inspired me to make more of these little bags and possibly sell them on my etsy account. If I was to do this however I would take up their complexity by possibly adding hand painted motifs of flowers and natural patterns upon them.
