Some good news. And some bad ones.

Greetings all!

Yes i know that it's been a while since i've updated or made new bags or replied emails even. But the good news is that i'm starting this thing back up and by next week, i'll be ready to release a new set of bags :D:D so sorry for the long wait by the way. After my exams were over, the holiday fever kicked in and the malas disease plagued me so i couldn't update then. And when the new year finally rolled in, preparations for a new semester took most of my time.

But now that im settled down and have a bit of time on my hands, i can start doodling again :D:D so yeahh. Updates will be a definite thing next week. As for the massive amount of emails that i have not checked, im so sorry but i dont think i'll be able to reply them all. To be honest, i havn't read any. Lol. But fret not! I'll check on my inbox as soon as this blog is updated with new goodies :):)

The bad news is that, as you can see, the pictures on this blog is all messed up and unavailable for viewing unless you click on it. And since i'm not a tech expert, i have absolutely NO IDEA on how to fix it. So the website will be in this very ugly state for the time being until i figure out how to get my away around this glitch :/ suggestions are very much welcomed. Just drop a comment at the cbox. Please don't email me yet.

So yeahh. That's all the update for now. You'll probably see a gradual change in the layout of this website while I experiment on the various ways to fix the problem; so bear with me yeah?

Once again, so sorry for the delay/lack of response from emails and man! Does it feel good to be back :D:D

Lotsa delayed <3,
So Random
xoxo

WARNING!

1) due to the fact that we are very very new at this stuff, there will (inevitably!) be mistakes or flaws in the workmanship. therefore, these bags are NOT for fussy buyers. although, constructive criticism is very much welcome :):)

2)we will not be responsible for any damages incurred when the bag arrives through post or for any lost parcels. however, we will, of course, provide the tracking number for each parcel sent to monitor these parcels. but we do highly recommend customers to use 'pos laju' instead of 'pos ekspress' as it is safer.

3)these bags are for serious buyers only. so those of you who have reserved a certain bag but suddenly disappear or backout at the last minute will be permanently blacklisted.

therefore, please please think it through first before placing your order. and if u're no longer interested in an item, just tell us, (we won't bite!), but do not just disappear and leave us hanging.

oh. and questions/inquiries are very much entertained and will not be considered as an order, so don't hesitate to ask alright? :):)

SO HOW DID THESE BAGS CAME TO BE? :):)

well. simply put, it started out with two sisters who loved to doodle, had nothing else better to do and who wanted to make random bags for all the good random people out there. the fact that they also had a mother who loved to sew helped a lot as well.

thus, this website was born :):)

and yes. everything is handmade. hence, the handmade pledge above is present :D so yeahh...to answer the question posted above, let us see what was needed to make these bags :):)

MATERIALS USED

first of all, we basically used fabric dye to colour the designs on the bags after first sketching the illustration on the fabric with a normal pencil. and since we're using fabric dye to paint these bags, THE COLOUR WOULD NOT COME OFF after a few washes. believe me. we've tried. especially when we made mistakes with the painting. O_O

secondly, every bag also has our logo at the back for advertisement/promotion purposes.
(lol. yeahhh. sorry about that. we are DESPERATE for customers).

thirdly, we used a type of fabric called 'cotton calico' to make the bags. it's basically 'kain belacu' and it's pretty hardy. it's not stretchable but its durable enough :D it's also not that sheer and has a very grainy feel to it.

and when it's done, it'll look like this:
tadaaa!!! x)

size chart!!! ;D;D

yes. our bags actually have sizes :)

and they are basically divided into 3,

---------------------------------------------------------------

the first size would be size L.
it's about 19.5 inches in length and 15 inches in width.
the L size is special because it's the only bag with sharp edges. so it sorta looks cooler. XD

size L bags are selling for,
rm25

--------------------------------------

the second size would be size M.
it's about 17 inches in length and 13 inches in width.
the M sized bags are different from the L sized bags because they do not have the sharp ends at the bottom like the size L does. these blunted ends provides more storage :D

size M bags are selling for,
rm 23

----------------------------------------

the last and smallest size would be size S.
it's about 13 inches in length and 10 inches in width.
it also has blunted ends instead of sharp ones and its straps are about half an inch longer then the other sizes.

size S bags are selling for,
rm19
