The New Life I Lead







Visit my website at http://www.froufrouagogo.etsy.com/ to see my latest handbag creations in upcycled leather. (I must be insane. It's gotta be the only explanation.)

And here's one of my latest upcycled bags, femmes.


Here's one of my latest bags - this one is made from a vintage men's bomber jacket. Hope you like. FrouFrou

Frou Frou Celebrates Earth Day











I thought I'd share some pics of my house, where 99.9% of my stuff is thrifted, then somehow repurposed for maximum froufy-ness.

I hope Cupid shoots his arrow at those of us who could use a little arrow-shooting, friends. Who knows, maybe today's the day...

Ok, I'm finally doing a blog (making a blog?) Everybody else has one, so here goes.

FrouFrou a GoGo is my little home biz - I design and create bags from upcycled, thrifted leather goods. Sometimes I paint the leather, which indulges my love of color. Believe me, it can get pretty boring sewing with black and brown leather only.

This blog is called a lifestyle emporium because I'd like my bags to reflect the way I need to live, and that's surrounded by color, color, color. Mustard and orange walls, hot pink painted-by-moi thrifted furniture, glass accessories in my favorite jewel tones, I love them all.

Fun - let's try to have fun, femmes. Start by carrying a Frou Frou a GoGo handcrafted, upcycled, and fabulously affordable leather bag. Shameless promotion, sorry. www.froufrouagogo.etsy.com

My first blog post ever. I wonder if I'll keep this up?
luv,
