New Reclaimed leather bags

New Reclaimed leather bags, DIY upcycled leather bag, I have been busy making new bags! over the summer holidays the one thing I missed was my sewing machine! (I had plenty of yarn with me), so obviously first thing I did when I came back was to get busy sewing a whole bunch of bags

Reclaimed, upcycling and remake

I have a passion, almost an obsession! for up cycling, making something new with something old, I have a physical reaction when I think how many materials are discarded in landfills, I love to push myself to be more creative and come up with new ways of using what we already have. These new set of bags, or collection if you prefer, is a product of the combination of my passion for remake and my obsession with creating, I am a maker, these are my makes!.

Lots of the bags I have made are out of old leather coats

The great thing about this is that I get to use the original pockets, some of them are stunning!

I am very excited with all these new bags, you can find then on my newest shop Luz Makes

This lovely tote has machine embroidery on the flap, I had lots of fun making this one.

I will be updating the shop regularly with all my new bags, pop in to have a look and let me know what you think about them.

Have a lovely day
