Time to gush. I should just listen to Chelsea when she posts about something and get on board, but it took a second knock to the head from Decor8 before I realized just how awesome the stuff from Made by Hank is. The ruffles! The stitched “made by hank” detailing. The elephants! The polka dots! The gushing!

All of the purses shown here have been “sold” at Made by Hank’s etsy shop, but that just makes me more determined than ever to get to Renegade Chicago and see this stuff in person. And meet the talented Katie Henry. And get a bag (or two, because they will make great gifts!) Check out her shop and stay up to date through her blog.

    Wow, those ‘ruffle’s are pretty great – remind me of some of the stuff that I’ve seen at Anthro these days. I’m still not totally confident in my sewing skills but I would like to explore this! Thanks for the inspiration!

    Oh my…how can I resist not only ruffles, but something that’s made by someone named HANK? I’m in love.
