One of my favorite things about this business is designing the products, mostly different kinds of bags - like our every-popular cross body slouch purse or our little minis, perfect for keeping everything from makeup to pens to coins to keys - it's our "whatever" bag.
With the help of my interns, everything that comes out of the studio is carefully designed. We have about 2000 ties to work with right now, which sounds like a lot (and it is a lot, thanks to the wonderful people who donate ties to our project!) but it takes a broad palette of colors and designs to put together a really beautiful bag. I've been known to get stuck with a design and spend WAY too much time looking for just the right color of blue or a tie with just a touch of bright pink or whatever. I absolutely love doing this because the ties are always beautiful. Believe it or not, I never get tired of working with the ties. Which is a good thing, yesterday I shipped off 70 POUNDS of Ties That Matter products. They'll be on a great website called Globalgirlfriend.com. check it out! P.S. We ALWAYS need more ties so if you have some to donate, send them to : P.O. Box 11914, Atlanta, GA 30355.
