Handcrafted, just for you

A new collection came to mind since working at Starbucks. So many gift cards are tossed daily and I began collecting them to make a collection out of them. As the wheels in my head turned for ideas, I decided to line the bags with the green aprons baristas wear. However, that turned into another dilemma because I don't have much access to the aprons to continue making the purses as with the gift cards. That idea quickly was shut down until recently, when my store manager requested an iPad bag for her new toy. Not really feeling her as a Formal collection kind of girl, I suggested the idea of the Starbucks gift card bag. Upon receiving confirmation that she loved the idea, I am moving forward with the limited collection titled the WaShu SB collections since that is the name of our Starbucks location.

Coupon Commotion week at JoAnn!

I'm gearing up to go on a shopping spree at JoAnn next week. With TWO, count 'em t-w-o, books of coupons, I'm stocking up on supplies and materials to make my new collections. Included on the list will be materials to continue the Sudoku path and stuff to experiment on making other styles of unique handbags. Spring in just around the corner and Trizanh will be in full bloom!

Tis the season!

Spring is right around the corner and that means the season of outdoor craft fairs will start up again! This will be my second year selling at craft fairs and I hope to be in some big ones this time around... and make some money. Besides adding new collections and different styles of my current collections, any other suggestion to make this new craft season a success? Should I take more pictures? Blog more? Trizanh wouldn't be where it is today without my family, friends, and fans so talk to me people!
