One of my girlfriends has found her niche. In fact that's part of her company's name - Accessory Niche. Tomorrow, she is headed to the Big Apple to take part in a competition for independent handbag designers. Big sister, Sonya and her Mom are accompanying her to this one of a kind competition. Isn't family support nice :)
Here's a shot of the winning entry .
Her bag, named the "Nubuck Hobo", is in The Best Handmade Handbag Category in the Second Annual Independent Handbag Designer Awards.
Kudos goes out to Shara - that's her name- because she is 1 of 5 selected of out 600- from around the globe. The competition takes place tomorrow, with cocktails and hors d'oeuvres being served before the 8:30 PM awards presentation.
In business since 2003, she focuses on creating classical design styles with a twist -as she puts it-of modern detail. While she has only been in business since 2003, I remember her way WAY back (in junior high, mind you) always creating, always designing something. Check out her some of her other designs on her website here.
Good Luck again, Shara. I'll be thinking about you tomorrow. Be sure to email me or post a comment after the awards ceremony.
