Pretty Sensible Stuff Product Descriptions
Sling Sack:
The sling sack is a fully lined fabric bag designed to have no seams in the shoulder strap to prevent early wear to the tote's life. The sling sack holds an amazing amount of stuff. It is great for traveling - lightweigh, collapsible, and easy to acces the contents. The one-of-kind painting on the art pocket gives you extra, easy access storage and the bag a personally as individual as you.
Hanger Pocket:
The Hanger Pocket is a fabric envelope that folds over a wooden coat hanger (included) to embrace your treasures while hanging in the closet, traveling in your suitcase, or taking to the gym. The hanger pocket can be used to hide money or documents, hold a sachet to freshen or jewelry to coordinate an outfit or just keep your pantyhose from running. They are great for traveling – they pack flat in your luggage or pair the hanger with your prepared outfit for that big meeting in the morning.
Messenger Bag:
The Messenger Bag joins a hand painted canvas front flap, charming print fabric, and a unique fastener to construct a truly one-of-a kind city bag.
The artsy bag is fully lined and each is augmented with a specially selected fastener. The closure reflects the personality of the fabric & the exclusive artwork and secures the contents. The purse is designed to be worn across the body when a hands free bag is needed. It is perfect for a day at the county fair, a night at the amusement part, or just to slip out to the coffee shop.
Tote Bag:
The ToteBag is created by incorporating a hand painted canvas pocket, attractive print fabric, and a unique fastener to produce a truly one-of-kind tote bag.
A skillful painting is brushed in layers of translucence watercolor, gouache, and or acrylic pigment onto a fabric pocket then sealed with a clear matt acrylic to protect the paint. Each piece of artwork is hand-painted and is a different design than any of the other pieces making the painting an original piece of art. The art pocket is sewed to the front of the bag for easy access to small items such as keys, cell phones, or ink pen.
The bag is constructed from Lynne’s original pattern and drapery, upholstery, lightweight cotton fabrics or a combination of two or more fabrics and textures. The tote is fully lined and is stitched with a comfortable strap that wraps around the sides of the bag creating a solid handle that will not break off.
Each fabric bag is embellished with a different closure to reflect the personality of the fabric and the distinctive artwork on the outside pocket of the bag.
The everyday tote makes a great eco-friendly tote to take on your errand running trips around town or weekend adventures away from home.
Mini Totes:
Mini totes are smaller versions of the fabric bag.
Created to carry:
more than a hand full, but less than a bag full.
They are great to carry a home-made lunch, to recycle a few paper back books, or to keep your hands free while doing a short errand.
Seashell Collector Bag:
The Seashell Collector Bag is a miniature version of the fabric bag. The handbag is designed to carry your treasures found on the beach. The front art pocket will carry a small item separate from the sandy shells or sea glass.
Wine Bottle Bag:
The Wine Bottle Bag brings purposeful art to the table. The hand-painted design adorns the front of this wine bottle bag and makes a great gift. It provides frameless art to the kitchen without the need for wall space.
Artful Apron:
The Artful Apron combines charming fabric with a useful art pocket and a convenient ribbon loop to hang by. The apron can protect your clothing in the kitchen, at the grill, or in the garden. Its painted pocket can give you that extra hand to hold needed tools when your hands are full and decorate your space when not in use.
Blank Journal:
Each journal is graced with a hand-painted, one-of-a-kind, rendering on the cover. The painting is paired with a delightful fabric to create the journal cover. Inside each journal is filled with lots of spiral bound, blank pages and one page is penned by artist, Lynne with one of her original poems. Each journal has its own unique poem and original painting making these journals truly personal.
Throw Pillow Covers:
The throw pillow cover is constructed with Velcro to easily recover an exciting accent pillow or new pillow form. Simply slip it over a 16”x 16” pillow form and seal the Velcro for an instant update. Each cover is embellished with a one-of-a-kind, hand brushed painting masked out on the decorator fabric. The artwork is inspired by the fabric print and is sealed to protect the painting from the everyday elements. It is a sensible way to display original artwork without nailing any holes in the wall.
Vicky Lynne
Her home studio is located on 5 secluded acres in a lush, hardwood forest north of Raleigh, North Carolina. Vicky Lynne paints each unique piece of artwork to incorporate into her original designed patterns of tote bags, hanger pockets, aprons and pillow covers. Her paintings depict things found in nature, beach and gardening still life, and all stuff pretty.
