Environmentally-Friendly Monogrammed Bags

bagOk, fashion divas . . . this bag has your name written all over it (literally)!  However, these bags are not your average fashion statement - they are also a mission statement! Queen Bea bags are woven from a plant that kills the rivers in Thailand, and thus the eco-system of the area. More importantly, these straw bags are made by Thai women who have taken the opportunity to improve their weaving skills and financial independence without leaving their communities. So you see, this is a gift that keeps on giving.

 

 Confessions of a Customer

No matter if she is looking for the perfect gift or planning another great event, Susan Chagares knows she can count on the helpful staff at The Dandelion Patch for all her needs. "I always know they will find exactly the right invitation or show me the perfect gift whether it is for a birthday, baby shower or wedding".
dabneyRecently, Susan was hosting a Bridesmaid's Luncheon and wanted to incorporate an image of the church where the wedding would be held. The staff was able to recommend their "go to" for cute, custom drawn paper goods and sent the picture to Dabney Lee to replicate for both the invitations and luggage tag favors. The images were "such a hit" that we also had the image blown up so that the bride could have a custom keepsake.
Thank you for all your support Susan, we can't wait to see what we get to design next!
