Post your Ella bag designs here!

[firsttimemommy]

Wow, everyone has GREAT designs! Makes me want more than one! I have some ideas for a fall bag now!! Here is what I have so far - I managed to narrow it down quite a bit, but still have a few decisions to make :)

Style:
Elaine or Lily (need to measure my current one that is just a bit too small) with button or snap closure

Bottom:
Dark Denim (for sure)

The Rest :
Top pink twill with paisley custom made band (if possible) between pink and denim, denim and paisley strap, interior pink
OR
Top in very stripe watermelon with pink piping, denim and pink straps, interior pink

Extras:
the paci pouch OR small makeup bag in paisley or very stripe

I'll look at it again tomorrow to see if one of the combos looks better then - right now I am leaning towards the first one.

I wasn't thinking about the flora but the caroline which is smaller than the Elaine. DS also does not long to be out long but now I am thinking I will probably get the Elaine....he is getting older and it can only get better right??? How old is your DS?

I have to say, after perusing that page for about an hour, that I really, really like the toile backpack without the feathers.

I swear, I never liked toile, but after I got the toile Zolo, I have a whole new appreciation for it, and that backpack is just elegant.

I still need to add my name to the list - but this was what I was thinking about:
Elaine bag; extra pockets; key loop; possibly paci pouch

Body: Geo Squares - Black
Base: black twill
Custom band - hot pink to divide base and body
Interior - Hot pink circles
Strap: Geo squares black / hot pink.

This is a major departure from my usual minimalist look!! :) But at least it isn't a lot of money.

Please reassure me that it isn't too much!! SOMEONE???!!

Debbi,

I'm emailing you, too - but my emails have often got lost. So could you please add me to the list?!!
Nita, email is obedcocker @ yahoo.com (delete spaces, of course!!)

I swear - I dreamed about these bags last night - during the 45 minutes DS let me sleep.

Thanks!

NIta I had dreams of the bag too! I just can't decide which one. :)

[houseof3boys]

I'm doing Geo Squares too but I'm still deciding on the rest. I THINK I am going with red where you chose pink but the rest is the same except I might do red inside since the b/w circles are on back order.

Good choice Nita!!!!!!!

[cchavez]

That sounds great! But if you wanted to do "less" you could get solid pink inside. hth

[nitaghei]

I was debating between the red and hot pink. And I looked very closely at the b/w circles!! :) Are you thinking of a solid red interior?

The weird thing is - I usually detest pink and circles. But hot pink is a whole different color, right? ;) I've been feeling so drab and down, that hot pink might be the shot I need!
