About Loddelina

Sales 215
On Etsy since 2009
  • Loddelina is a one - woman - brand of handbags and purses for every occasion
  • My favourite materials are upholstery fabrics and faux leather that I decorate myself with embroidery and applique
  • Every project starts with a fabric sketch, I lay out some materials and start matching colours and textures
  • One of my favourite items is tiny house brooch and I love crocheting little flowers to decorate my bags with
  • I collect buttons and trims, old ties and all sort of scraps that can be reused

Loddelina handbags and more

It all started in 2001, a few years after I graduated from fashion and textile design at University of Ljubljana.
It suddenly occured to me that the most common item in my closet were not shoes like in so many women's wardrobes, but handbags!
Somehow I have managed to bring home a handbag, purse or a tote from every holiday and trip I took. It was time to start making bags myself...

I prefer using single colour fabrics of different structure and feel so I can decorate them myself - with beads, lace, applique or freefoot embroidery, not appearing randomly but following the shape of the bag.
I love fabrics and will also use printed designs when I can complement them with my own hand work. I have recently started adding some small home decor items to my shop, like little fabric house brooches and ornaments.
