The bags we choose to carry make a statement about how we feel or what we think is funny, beautiful, silly or serious. We take them to the beach, the grocery store, to work and to play. I have created a wide variety of tote bags, messenger bags and wristlets for my Zazzle stores, Bebop's Place and Bebop's Weddings, using my original photographs and designs. I am also constantly amazed at the gorgeous bags available from the rest of the Zazzle community and want to share this creativity here! I am hoping others will enjoy this blog and even be moved to purchase some of these lovely items for gifts or just for the pleasure of having such beauty around.
