Customize Your Fabric with a State Map and Color Theme

I have a sweet friend who is completely devoted to her family. Many years ago, her son got a new job and moved his family 700 miles away. My friend couldn’t live without her precious grandchildren, so she sold her house and moved to the same town as her son. My friend, Grandma, was there for every baseball game, every dance recital and school play. Now, one of those precious grandchildren is about to graduate from college. But it’s 2020. The pandemic has made graduation ceremonies virtual at best. Grandma is heartbroken that there won’t be all the pomp and circumstance that goes with such a tremendous achievement. She really wants the graduation memorabilia. That got me thinking….

I made a special bag for her using the school colors and a state map. I placed a little graduation cap on the map where the school is located. Then I added the date of the graduation for her. I made a second bag for this picture, since I can’t sell official school merchandise. I think you get the idea. Here it is:

Do you have a special occasion coming up? Maybe a graduation, wedding, or family reunion? Do you want to remember a special family vacation you took? It could be a trip along Interstate 1 on the California coast, or your favorite getaway on Lake Michigan. Do you tailgate at your son’s high school football games or get together with your old college roommates for homecoming? Zinnia’s Closet can help you make those special moments even more memorable. We can design fabric with your favorite colors, location, and message.

We can’t wait to hear from you!

Wine Bags Are Now In Stock

Zinnia’s Closet is now offering a new product: wine bags!

Have you ever been invited to a friend’s or colleague’s home for dinner? You feel like you should bring something as a small gift. Maybe some flowers, a nice dessert, or a bottle of wine. You could carry that bottle of wine in the brown paper bag you got at the liquor store, or you could wrap it in a fabric bag.

Product Details: The bag is large enough to hold one bottle of wine. The handles are handmade with fabric. There is even a small pocket on the inside to hold a corkscrew.

Here is a picture of the first wine bag that I’ve made. Look for more bags in the coming weeks. Let me know what kinds of patterns you’d like to see on them in the comments section.

Wine Bags?

IMG_20180302_0002

I came across this fabric the other day with funny wine sayings on it. “I make wine disappear, what’s your superpower?”, “Wine makes me awesome”, “Wine a little, you’ll feel better”, “Wine, aerobics and repeat”, “My doctor says I need glasses”.

It got me thinking about a new product line: wine bags! I started working on the design of the bag.  How to place the handles, how much of the wine bottle should be covered, how long the handles should be, possibly adding a pocket for a corkscrew. It’s coming along. I hope to have a bag ready in the coming weeks.

What do you think? What kind of fabric designs would you like to see on a wine bag? Do you like wine related designs- grapes, wine bottles, wine glasses? Do you like holiday themes? Pretty florals? Comment below!
