Handmade Handbags, Homewares & Gifts

Based in the heart of Jane Austen country, just a stone's throw from her home at Chawton, in Hampshire, From Rags To Bags offers an eclectic range of handmade handbags and home wares. All the items are created from clothing, fabric remnants and vintage buttons where possible, together with some new fabrics. The majority of the handmade handbags, together with some of the home wares are one off designs, as the materials used are in limited supply.  

Buying a From Rags To Bags product helps to recycle unwanted items, in turn, helping the environment.  Charities also benefit, as much of the fabric is sourced direct from charity shops. 

New stock is being added all the time, so please bookmark the site for future reference.  If you would like more photos or details of any item, please let us know via the contact page.  Why not add yourself to the mailing list to be kept up to date with offers and new products? 

International buyers may prefer to buy items in US dollars or Euros, so please follow the links to our Etsy and Dawanda stores on the Postal Rates, Terms & Links page.
