Handmade Handbags: Express Your Own Style
Where would a woman be without her handbag? As every 21st century girl knows, handbags are essential. Not only are they practical, but they can add the finishing touches to any outfit for any occasion. Long gone are the days when a woman's bag is just for carrying items in. Now more than ever, a handbag says something about the bearer. Manufacturers know this, and as a result, the market for handbags is an ever-changing, diverse territory.
Handbag chic is all the rage, and on the internet awaiting your discovery are some alluring handmade products that radiate quality with their uniqueness. A bag that is expertly crafted out of human labor retains an individuality that a mass made product can never compare to. With an intricate delicacy, silk and hyacinth, the two main materials used to make handmade bags in Thailand, can come together to weave a visual tale of style and wonder.
Handmade handbags are products that a woman can take pride in. Knowing that your bag is one of a kind and made from natural materials will give you an edge that will leave others envious. Handmade silk bags are produced through a process that combines the natural fiber of silk with other textiles through various weaving techniques. Water hyacinths are used to create the woven basket look of some handbags, which can often make for fashionable, as well as beach friendly, accessories. Some of the common design techniques used in making a bag from hyacinth include two-tone weaving, as well as the making of color stripes.
Accessorizing allows a girl to emanate her personality and character through choices she makes with regards to her bag and her outfit as a whole. We understand the world as humans, by all accounts, in a primarily visual sense. If this is the case then the look you have goes a long way to putting you on show to the rest of the world. Who are you and how do you want people to see you? When it comes to the embellishment of a handmade piece, designers often use beads, faux jewels, gold or metallic accents, as well as other inviting colorful details to enhance the appearance of a handbag. These additions allow the product to take on a life of its own.
Handbags come in all shapes and sizes. If you are keen on keeping up with the latest in handbag fashion, then you may already know that big is in. For once, fashion has merged with practicality, as larger handbags are currently more desirable than their smaller relatives.
In the past, handbag colors were restricted to monotonous tones of black, brown, tan and occasionally cream. Today, bags are represented by every color under the sun. With a handmade silk handbag, you can express yourself in a multitude of ways through vibrant shades of all the colors of the rainbow. You can always be assured of finding a style and a color to match whatever you are wearing. Through winter, spring, summer and fall, handbags made from silk are breathtaking, especially when fashioned from revered Thai silk.
