This lot includes three one-of-a-kind handmade denim bags, created two years ago during a design phase focused on younger, trend-forward customers who embrace ripped denim, upcycling, and visible handmade style. While my brand has since evolved, these bags remain strong sellers for boutiques serving that aesthetic.

Why this lot works for boutiques

These bags immediately signal handmade, ethical, and upcycled—the opposite of mass-produced fashion. They attract attention, invite touch, and pair naturally with denim, streetwear, festival, and eco-conscious displays.

The Bags

• Bag 1 (Left):

Small quilted shoulder/crossbody bag, approx. 11” x 11” with a 2” boxed bottom. Made from 4” denim squares with contrasting accent pieces. Casual, playful, and wearable.

• Bag 2 (Center):

Long quilted tote made from reclaimed denim, embroidery remnants, and appliqué details. Subtle nautical / marine life theme with “Save the Ocean” elements and light sparkle. A true conversation piece.

• Bag 3 (Right):

Crescent-shaped quilted bag constructed from 4” denim squares, joined with decorative zigzag stitching for a textured, elevated finish. Originally created as part of a quilting demo—bold, scrappy, and graphic.

Construction & Materials

• Real reclaimed denim (not faux or printed)

• Fully lined with cotton

• Metal zippers

• New, adjustable detachable straps (crossbody or shoulder wear)

• Handmade in New Jersey, USA by a single maker

• Washable (cold, gentle recommended)

About the aesthetic

Visible seams, irregularity, and “scrappy” composition are intentional design choices—they communicate authenticity, sustainability, and handcraft. These are not factory-perfect bags; they are honestly made bags.

Ethical note

Every bag is sewn by me, at humane hours, with no outsourced or exploited labor. Each piece takes far more time than its price reflects—making this lot especially attractive for resale.

Ideal for

Boutiques serving younger customers, denim-focused shops, eco-fashion stores, gift shops, festival wear, or retailers who value handmade + story + margin.
