I'm kind of upset that I'll never live to see the year 2525 because I really liked that show Cleopatra 2525 when I was younger. Anyone know what I'm talking about? I mean when an exotic dancer is cryogenically frozen in the year 2001 then is accidentally thawed out in 2525, adventures are inevitable! The theme song is still stuck in my head!

Anyhow, the point of this article is to talk a little about the new something somethings I've been making recently. Some of you were skeptical it was too much of a stretch from bag making but it all worked out! The following account is based on a true story. Cue the fog machine!

Letting that glue cure!

Letting that glue cure!


The year was 2020, a young vivacious woman paced her workshop
thinking of what to make next. What would please people? What would draw them in? Thunder cracked beyond the windows that shielded her from the outside world. She sat a moment in her brown leather wing back chair, her palms pressed firmly against her head and cried out "I shall make button covered earrings!”. Wolves howled in the background as she began cutting scraps of fabric. Leftover pieces from bags she had made flew wildly in the air, from her cutting station, as she created the vision in her mind. Lightning momentarily illuminated her workshop as she brought life to a new project. She told herself this was a great way to make use of every little piece of fabric.Would the people like it? Would they wear them? All questions she pondered but chances were taken and she is now posting them on her Instagram. Bada bing, Bada Boom! Big Bada Boom!

So that's pretty much how it went down. Clearly, I'm the vivacious woman! I have so many little bits of fabric left from cutting bags that this seemed like the best use for them! I think they are pretty cute and a lot of you have commented lovely things about them as well. It's important to try new things as a business. Freshen things up every 13 years or so ( I started Sour in 2007)! Always be thinking and using that noggin' to develop new functional ideas.
