Everyday Object Handbags

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

These Creations from Etsy User Krukrustudio Are Simply Enchanting

— May 25, 2013 — Unique
Using a watering can as a purse might not be a realistic option, but the one offered by Etsy user Krukrustudio is perfectly suited to holding your belongings. Specializing in quirky bags that look like everyday objects, the expertly crafted purses come in a variety of styles including -- just to name a few -- a boxing glove, a violin, the Instagram logo, a Rubiks cube, a gasoline can, a carrot and even a jar of jam.

Made of thickly cut felt, the bags by Krukrustudio are definitely high on the impact level and can best be described as a statement piece. Some might find them a little bit eccentric, but this over-the-top quality is what gives the bags their distinct flair. What's more, the attention to detail is nothing less than impressive, which means sacrificing style for quality isn't an issue.
