5 out of 5 starsThis is absolutely gorgeous! I have been looking for an octopus handbag but of course you can't find ANYTHING remotely unique in a store anywhere. The octopus is very cool. Beautiful colors. I love the shape and size of the purse. This is fantastic for anyone who loves creative and unique handbags. Your work is amazing! Now I just need a matching wallet! And I appreciate the very fast shipping too!

5 out of 5 starsI admired this purse for almost a year. I am so proud to own this original art. The packaging and wrapping was gorgeous. I do not have the words to describe how beautiful this purse is in person. Thank you for this beautiful creation. Much continued success!

When Art becomes a Passion and a Fashion
One warm evening in August of 2012, Shirley, our friend, a Fine Arts professor and a master jeweler, informed us that a space next to her gallery in San Diego was available and ready for us to move in! Without a second thought we jumped on it. We worked very hard for a couple of months, creating art pieces, and many other handmade items, preparing our storefront for opening. After endless days of hard work and long nights (along with our day jobs), Artful Ruins had its grand opening on October 4th of the same year and ever since we couldn’t be happier.
Shortly after our grand opening, a customer and friend told us to try ETSY so our beautiful products could be reached by people that are not in San Diego. We created an ETSY account on 2013, but we actually started our Etsy store on 2015, with our amazing hand painted wallets and purses which had become well-loved and quite popular in our shop as well as other hand painted and handmade items. Shortly we will be opening our second store on ETSY, with our own handmade natural soaps and other skincare products from our line called MORTAR AND PESTLE SKINCARE, which features our awesome handmade natural soaps, facial masks, lotions, shower gels, etc. all handmade with natural and organic ingredients, Cruelty Free, NON GMO, Paraben and Sulfates Free.
Meanwhile, we take custom orders for hand-painted or penned calligraphy, hand-painted signs, furniture, reprints and other specialty jobs, and of course purses and wallets!
Our shop & art gallery is located on the north end of 30th street at Adams Avenue in the Antique Row area where University Heights, Normal Heights and North Park meet. The neighborhood is unique and special for so many reasons, and well worth the visit. For those who can't make it into the shop we have provided some of our awesome handmade products here on Etsy!
