Thank you all for loving my bags as much as I enjoyed making them, from first sketches to the last embroidered details!
Loddelina “handbags and more” is taking a break for a while as I explore a different career - in illustration. I will not be adding new bags to my shop at this point.

5 out of 5 starsLoddelina's items are amazing, very unique, and beautifully made. I love my new pencil case - it's everyday things like that, that make days brighter, making art more fun, and are an instant inspiration. Don't hesitate to buy, her stuff will make your day!

5 out of 5 starsThis is a cute bag! It holds a coin purse, comb, phone, and several other small items easily. I like the divider that creates two compartments inside. I also love the colors and embroidery, and the nice extra work on the strap (usually wristlet straps are so plain.) It's a great little purse. And surprisingly fast ship. Recommended seller!

-
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.

Shipping
:: To keep the shipping cost as low as possible I ship all my items in padded envelopes via La Poste France priority airmail
- that means that upon arrival the fabric bags might require some light ironing and the faux leather ones need to be left out stretched at the room temperature, stuffed with some newspaper, to regain their shape.
If you have any additional questions regarding care, don’t hesitate to ask.
:: If you would like your package to be sent with tracking and insurance, please contact me for more information before purchase.
