Franbags
 
        The carpet bags of the past have always fascinated me. Carpet bags were made in all shapes and sizes from bits of old carpets. Everyone who traveled carried a carpet bag. They become the first suitcases.

        The Franbag was created as a whimsical 21st century carpet bag. The outer material is made from upholstery fabric of a contemporary design. Ribbons, beads and yarn embellish the outside of each bag. They are lined with cotton, silk, or rayon. The handles are made with bright colors that enhance the outer and inner fabric to match the lining.

    **Note: The items seen below might not be in my inventory. However, I can create the same styles with the colors of your choice.
