This week I have been designing a new handbag, it is inspired by the flower collection from the range of products I have created and developed. To see an example of some of the products using the flower design, follow this link www.lizziesearle.co.uk.
I thought I would show you some of my sketches and experiments. I have made a floral inspired bag before similar to the first sketch so wanted to create something slightly different. I really wanted there to be a strong link between this handbag amd the floral design I use for my products.






I really like how the flowers look from the back. They are slightly different from how I usually create the flower hair grips and brooches. For this project I will cut them out but I think I will revisit this as a design.


I am really pleased with how the flowers have worked and I think once they are all put together I believe it will look impressive. I just need to get on and make them!

Once I feel I have created enough flowers I’ll need to work out how they will be attached to the handbag. I will keep you up to date with the handbag development!
