I LOVED mermaid's dream on facebook and fell in love with the Empress Silk Brocade Peacock Clutch in particular on her etsy site. <br /><br />As a woman in her late 30's who gave up everything when left in post viral severe chronic pain and cogntive dysfunctions that may or may not be MS after suffering an almost fatal case of viral pneumonia, I turned to crafting to make spending money and found true happiness. <br /><br />I am now a potter, a mosaic and stained glass artist, beadworks artist and felted handbag maker and the style of my favorite clutch is in tune with my latest goal to be pretty and ladylike now matter how i feel when I get out of bed. <br /><br />In the end, it makes me feel better all around. <3Alanna Janehttp://www.alannajane.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6190258529969238606.post-75047105848235939422011-08-14T18:52:14.587-04:002011-08-14T18:52:14.587-04:00And I would LOVE one for my Sept. 23rd wedding - p...And I would LOVE one for my Sept. 23rd wedding - possibly as a gift to my amazing Maid of Honor.

I ...I love this interview & her beautiful work! I have recently fallen in love with clutches. I used to be a big bag person. They both have their uses, of course, but when a person's whole body hurts, like many of ours, having a light weight purse that holds just the essentials is perfect!<br /><br />I liked Mermaids Dream on Facebook!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07810736265869305528noreply@blogger.com
