Add a touch of vintage charm with Blue Dog Avenue's custom-designed cork and cactus leather bags, all meticulously crafted by hand. These bags are not only stylish and eco-friendly, but also durable and easy to care for, making them the perfect choice for sustainable fashion.
Meet the Maker
I'm an artisan sewist creating custom-designed, environmentally-friendly bags and accessories with a vintage vibe, made with cork and cactus leathers. These incredible leather alternatives are sustainable, durable and water-resistant.
Inspired by vintage bags, my Blue Dog Avenue line offers a contemporary take on classic designs. Every bag is handcrafted solely by me from start to finish, including the creation and designing of my patterns. All of the materials are carefully cut by hand and then individually sewn in my home studio, giving the utmost attention to each and every detail.
In my design process, I strive for a perfect balance between aesthetic appeal and functional performance. I view my pieces as much more than mere bags or accessories but rather an intersection of art and design. To me, each piece is a wearable work of art and is crafted by hand with the care it deserves.
How it’s Made
I handcraft every bag from start to finish, beginning with the creation and design of my patterns, which reflect my passion for vintage bags. Next all of the materials are carefully selected and cut by hand. Each piece is then individually sewn in my home studio using professional techniques and equipment giving the utmost attention to every detail. I take great pride in creating wearable works of art that are made to be stylish, durable and can be cherished for years to come.
