About byalisonrose

I create original "one-off" handbags, sewn with love using new, vintage and recycled materials. My bags are named after many inspirational women who have touched my life in some way. Each bag incorporates a doily (or part of), which kinda has become my signature mark. I know it sounds old and nanna-ish, but it ain't...you should check em out for yourself!....enjoy.
