Emma Purse

Emma had just turned two when I made this purse.  It is one of those alterable wooden purses you find at a craft store.  I painted it and embellished it with butterflies...painted ones and sticker ones.

The pic is of Emma in her flower outfit she wore at her garden themed second birthday party.  

I used this purse for the longest time.  You can see a few nicks and scratches here and there, but I think it held up amazingly well for the treatment it got.  

I have put the purse up now.  I have some writings I did when I was pregnant with her that I will bind and put in the purse and give to her for a future birthday.  I think it will make a special gift.
