Live Journal Frustrations [Apr. 24th, 2007|02:38 am]
[Current Location |home sweet home]
[Current Mood | frustrated]

Well, it has been FOREVER since I have written anything in this journal so hello out there to anyone who reads this! I am sorry for neglecting to keep up on this sight but I just forget all about it for a while and then when I try to post things I can't figure out how to do what I need to do! I need some Live Journal 101, for real!
Anyway, things are going well, my website has certainly been keeping me busy with custom orders and events. I love every minute of the whole process of creating something special for someone I may never meet. It is extremely rewarding for me to be able to produce that extra special gift or turn someone's concept into something tangible. I would love to post some pics of my favorite custom orders as I intended but this dang live journal will not let me! Does anyone out there know why? I have tried everything and keep getting different error messages !!Hopefully I will return soon with lots of pics : (

and another shape is born [Aug. 29th, 2006|09:40 am]
[Current Location |hurricane hide-out]
[Current Mood | anxious]

well, it's been a while since i've posted anything. i guess this is why i've never kept a successful journal! So here's whats happening in 'Sara Land'...

First of all, we are about to get nailed by a weak @$$ hurricane. I don't even think it's a hurricane anymore, just a tropical storm . Big friggin deal! People in South Florida are losing there minds! I couldn't even find 1 loaf of bread in the super walmart (by the way, I EFFIN HATE WALMART!!) So we'll all just have to wait and see what happens I guess. The storm,'Ernesto', should be getting here late tonight/early tomorrow. I really don't want to lose power cause its quite HOT outside!
On a happier note, I have created yet another clutch shape! Here are some pics for you


i hope you like them! I'll get them up on the website along w/ a few new bags a.s.a.p.! They will be $28 (including shipping!)
WHAT A DEAL!

newan bags and battle wounds [Jul. 30th, 2006|04:34 am]
[Current Mood | relaxed]

Lately I have been making alot of bags w/ my Newan the Deer applique on them and many have been curious about the name 'Newan ' and it's origin. So ,
this is the real Newan!

i met her at the wildlife hospital where Amy works and we instantly became the best of friends : )
and here is a preview of a new bag!!
I still have to photograph a few more !

oh, this one was maliciously attacked by my very hostile iron but is expected to make a full recovery

these along with a few more will be put on the site very soon!! I also have an kick ass photographer (and friend, of course) coming from Miami to shoot some bags for the website & new promo pieces. We even have models! Her name is Julie Dickinson and you can find some of her work @ http://www.juliedickinson.com. Check it out!
i am very excited!
words of widom
when you are too sleepy to see straight, STOP SEWING before you get hurt! here is my latest battle wound.

that iron really is hostile! its becoming a bit of a problem.

[Current Mood | distressed]

I watched War of the Worlds today and let me just say that is was effin ridiculous. Not that I thought it was going to be that great, it just happened to be on HBO, so you know. If anyone out there loved this movie, please tell me who you are.i am truly curious.

I mean, come on.

not much to say today [Jul. 23rd, 2006|02:38 am]
[Current Mood | lazy]

dull day. Although I accomplished laundry, today was creatively unproductive which means i am left feeling like a useless lazy bum at the end of the day. Also. i quit smoking (well, jump started the process) about 3 weeks ago and right now i am reallllllllllly wanting a cigarette. i am trying very hard not to think about it though so let me change the subject.
i call this
Fun with bread and bar garnishes
these creatures inhabited the restaurant i use to work at! Aren't they strange???
This one didn't have a chance.

Lake Worth=Shatangey! (oh and new bags ,too!) [Jul. 21st, 2006|03:53 am]
[Current Mood | sleepy]

First of all tonight me and Beckie went to the dreaded Lake Worth to see Jess's band Aquaphonics play. (Jess is my boyfriend and a fierce drummer whom I never really call 'Jess'. For some reason I am compelled to call him 'Minkus' instead.) Band was excellent, Lake Worth was straight up 'shatangey' if you know what I'm sayin'. It took us almost 3x as long as it should have to get home due to construction and the most un-excellent driving skills of about 90% of those sharing the road with us.Hallelujah to never going to Lake Worth again.

Now, on to more important news!!!

We are working on the website update. As this whole website deal is fairly new to me, it is often difficult for me to update as fast as new products are created! This would be one great benefit of reading my live journal (meaning I will be posting my new bags frequently w/o requiring help from 'web master extraordinare' so you will be the first to see them!!) Here are 2 new reversible tote bags...
I have been on a tote bag kick lately. You can use them for everything!

Entry #1 [Jul. 19th, 2006|08:32 pm]
[Current Mood | giddy]

Hello strangers!
My name is Sara Leigh.
this is me

♥♥I'm a 24 year old designer for my website Saraleighhandbags.com
. (that's handbags if you didn't catch on!) I've started this live journal for a few reasons (1) I am advised by my 'web-master extraordinare', Michael, to get as many links up to my new website as possible (2) I'd like to make additional information about my designs and my design process available to those who are interested (3) It's always nice to connect with those of like mind. Also, I have never really been a journal keeping kind of girl and sometimes wish I had been, so why not!♥♥I'll be posting pic.s from the website soon!
