Right on the heels of our last custom baby bag for Rachel, Steph (our awesome graphic designer) asked us if we would create a baby bag for her.

We had been throwing around some unicorn designs (for some soon-to-be-posted necklaces!!) and she got the idea for a bag with a GLITTER unicorn on it. She drew up a sketch and designed her print, as I scoured the internet for products that would allow me to glitter up my screen prints. A few pattern designs later, this baby was born! This is probably the most complex bag I have ever made, and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out:

Look at that magnificent sparkly unicorn!

It features:

*phew* A lot of the features were first times for me – like the partition and the magnetic snap closure, so I took things really slow. It took me a while to put the whole thing together, but it was totally worth it!! I was/am so happy with how it turned out, I found myself having a hard time sending it off to Steph! I hope her (and her soon to be born baby) love it as much as I do! <3

What do you guys think? Do you guys love unicorns as much as Steph and I?

ACK! I’ve been so bad at posting to this blog. Life has been busy lately, and blogging has fallen to the bottom of my to-do list.

I have a lot in my Cherry Red hopper at the moment, and I’ve been so focused on creating new things, that I haven’t been keeping you all in the loop

I made this custom tote for my old friend Rachel (seriously, I went to elementary school with her!) who is expecting her first baby at the end of June (OMG!) and wanted a baby bag to match her adorable stoller.

This bag is up there among my favorite custom creations of all time:

I created the leafy pattern, screen printed it onto the fabric (in three custom mixed colors), and made some extra buttons out of some of the fabric scraps. I also reinforced the bottom, but I forgot to take a picture The teal straps were a PERFECT match for the polka dotted teal lining fabric, I really couldn’t have been more perfect!

Congrats Rachel! I hope you (and your baby) love your new tote!

Last week I made this adorable large tote for Rachel. I was loving how it came out (just look at that lining!) and apparently Rachel loved it too! I love happy customers <3

She sent me the sweetest email, it made my night!

Dear Liz,
I just got the tote a few minutes ago and cannot thank you enough!!! It is
adorable and so freaking cute I am so excited to wear it And it was also SO
sweet of you to put the earrings in there. I actually got my ears pierced for the first
time a few weeks ago so they are officially my first pair of earrings. I cannot wait to
make my next order (which will probably be soon) because everything on your
website is absolutely amazing. I’ve showed a bunch of my friends and they agree!
Once again thanks so much for everything and I just love the bag & earrings so
much.

How cute is this owl print?!?!

But don’t get too excited just yet – this adorable tote belongs to the lady who designed the print; our new graphic designer, Steph! More of these babies will be up for grabs within the next few weeks!

While you wait, you can visit her website at hellocurious.com – go show some love!

Look at how cute Erica’s custom bag is! She wanted an Elephant love tote, but she had specific colors picked out. We think she has good taste!

December has been the month of custom bags for Cherry Red Boutique!

I am SO in love with this bag! My favorite part has to be the big orange buttons that hold the pockets shut.

It was made for my good friend Crystal, who wanted a custom beauty related tote for her sister in-law. She wasn’t sure what she wanted at first, but together, we came up with this super cute design!

It has three huge pockets on the outside with custom beauty related prints on each one!

This custom splatter heart tote was made for an old friend of mine from high school! *GASP*

Shirley wanted a splatter heart bag, but she wanted a white heart on a black bag. You know what they say – ask and you shall receive!

I made this AWESOME custom tote for my pirate obsessed sister-in-law. My favorite part is the skull lining!
