Where did you get that purse?!? That's what everyone will ask you when you acquire a Thomsina bag. These are more fun than earrings, more fun than shoes -- really. What do you see all day? What do you use all day? Your purse!

Thomsina bags are hand-made, one-of-a-kind, sturdy, and practical -- in short, works of art. Gayle Thomson makes each bag herself, either designing a ready-made bag you take one look at and decide you have to have, or working with you to custom-design a bag to your precise desires and specifications.

Most Thomsina bags are 100% quilt-quality cotton, lined with lofty batting for strength and stability. Some are faux suede or vinyl, but every Thomsina bag comes with its own jewelry. Most purses have a glasses or cell phone pocket, magnetic keyholder and a semi-rigid base. There are sizes ranging from evening bag to overnight totes -- and every one in between. Think about a bag custom-made for that festive outfit. Or a bag with your very favorite theme. The possibilities are endless. Or, just pick from the current, eye-catching stock.

Here on the Thomsina website you can see the bags currently for sale on Etsy.com, at street fairs listed on the site, and other venues as they are scheduled. The Gallery page allows you to browse previously designed and purchased bags. A great way to get ideas and see the vastness of her creativity. (Well, maybe not vast)

Gayle Thomson is an artist, jewelry maker, and creator of much wearable art over 25 creative years. Thomsina brings all this talent together so you can have your very own piece of wearable art.

Prices are surprisingly affordable. Similar bags (well, nothing else is quite like a Thomsina bag, but...) sell in New York for thousands. Thomsina bags are all under seventy-five dollars, most under fifty.
