I am a designer/maker of leather bags and accessories. Open to commissions. Visit my website on www.devinesdesign.com

I mainly work with lambs leather and cow hide making leather bags and accessories, working from home and Manchester Craft and Design Centre, Studio 9. I continually update this page with new work and ongoing projects and you can also view my range on www.devinesdesign.com and www.seekandadore.com/devinesdesign.

It was a bit of an everything over the past couple of days. Some orders to make & starting to relook at my website which always seems like a headache but , like a tax return, is always better once you get into the groove of it and quite cathartic. It’s a feeling of getting organised and doing the grown up tasks when you’re a crafter! I’ve added a new header on my site for ‘products in stock’. It’s going to take a while to upload everything but there’s one product on there so far!
Slowly getting through this dining room of items to sort out from moving out of my studio, had a satisfying tip-run and taking time to find a proper place for things as well as putting things on ! Maybe by next Friday it might be a dining room again!🥴

I managed to squeeze in a sunny local bike ride yesterday. Great places to pause and take in the winter sunshine at the top of the beautiful & .

👋 My first day back to a kind of normal. Meaning school/work is back and I’m on my first real day of being home alone. It’s ok though, I have been adjusting slowly to life after the Craft Centre and I’ve managed to sort LOTS of stuff out (hard to believe what you have in such a small workspace) and I am set up at home and actually have quite a bit of sewing to do today which is nice 😊. Still a lot to sort out but one 🦶 at a time.
I will be updating and having a re-jig of my website starting this week too and have taken lots of photos of my current stock to add to there. So I will post on here when I have some more updates.

We’re almost there. Just a couple more days to go (1.5 really). I’ve been finishing off a few bits of work and this was one of my last Christmas commissions completed yesterday.
We’re open today as normal 10-5.30 then Sunday 11-3. So if you’re out and about pop in to see us before we close. 👋

These little Truffle and Sky Blue Essentials bags are ready to go in my cabinets at studio 9 .
It feels like we’re nearly there but not quite as we’ve a couple of big shopping days left until we close for Christmas. Our studios have still got lovely things on offer (I know some people I speak to are only just starting their Christmas purchases). It’s our little escape from the hectic high street .☺️

Last few days and last few makes. This is one of my cute mini two tone bags which I make in different colour combinations. This colour way was chosen by a customer and turned out 👌🏻.

We are still here making until 3pm Christmas Eve so you can escape the high street (& the windy weather).😉

A circle of leaf purses…
These are cute little change purses or a purse to hold other items. Stitched and appliquéd by me. Available from studio 9

My favourite colours in my mini pouches. People have bought these for all sorts of purposes. Originally they were for sewing items but they’ve even been bought for holding a roll of dog bags! Anyway, they have a handy trigger clip attached to them so could be for EarPods or other essentials and come in a variety of soft lambs leather and suede. Available from studio9 .
We are open 11-5pm this Sunday.

This mini two tone bag went to a new home last week. The colour is called ‘ Luggage’ with a highlight of ‘Lemongrass’. These mini bags are so handy and fit just the right amount of stuff in them.
More to be made when I’m back in the studio today. ☺️

These are my popular Travel Pouch for Earrings. I have them in various colours, so many and always changing so they’re not on my website at the moment as I wouldn’t be able to keep up with all the colour ways! They hold up to 3 pairs of small stud earrings. A handy little pouch for the gym, travelling or gifting. Available at studio9 or by contacting me direct.

Available from studio9
