FUNCTIONAL ART


This is not my skirt but rather the awesome bag my cousin gave me for my birthday! She actually got it from an organization here that recycles tents into these wonderful little things.
The designs, which vary by bag are beaded by hand rendering them even more valuable. They're cool, artsy and easy to wear. The artisanat in this country is just out of this world!
I get comments from both men and women when they see it. If I'm out for a long day, I can easily throw in my notebooks, lunch, shoes, etc. Perfect!
