The winner of the customized clutch at Prom Mafia was Piper!

After she had realized that she had won, she was so excited, that she actually sent me a collage that she made of what she wanted her clutch to look like!

Here it is:

And this is the ending product!!

A couple of weeks back, I posted about a contest over at "The Bright Side Project" where upon answering a question, the participants had a chance to win a Davie & Chiyo Clutch. The question was: "If you won, what would you like your custom clutch to look like?"

We got a ton of answers, along with many new ideas for clutches.

This is the answer that we chose:

"I once heard that a woman need only space for a lipstick and a one hundred dollar bill in any bag. This sentiment comes from a time before keys, iphones, and credit cards- but I still love the sentiment.... I love the time it inspires.
My custom clutch would take me back to that time:
a two-tone out side with a horizontal seam just above half way. The top half would be a beautifully rich red damask, reminiscent of flocked Victorian wallpapers. The bottom half, a gathered cream duponi silk whose vertical ruffles carry under the clutch. why cream? Because it's never touching a surface- this thing's staying under my arm the whole night.
And when I open it up to get my lipstick? Black black silk, like the secrets it holds inside."

And here is the result!

Miss B. over at The Bright Side Project just did an amazing feature on us!

She talks up our bags like they are the next best thing! And to top it all off, if you answer her question, you may win a clutch, fully custom designed and custom made by us!

After I posted the entry about sending in some of your wedding photos in exchange for a store discount coupon, I emailed all my past customers letting them know about it.

The emails started pouring in immediately! It was very close as to who actually became the "first three" to send a photo in for the free clutch that I promised. Here are the lucky three:

1. Danielle Maksimow
2. Maria Soldo
3. Jeanne Baby

For the rest of you that participated, rest assured, you will still be receiving a 50% discount coupon (via email) to be used for any clutch in the shop! (And to those of you that are planning to do so in the future)

Thanks to everyone who participated! The section "Once upon a time ...," displaying photos of my past customers will be up and running in the web-shop soon. In the meantime, here are some of my favourites:
