I posted a new Lawrenceville Sleeve today.  It's called Drops of Jupiter.  I had the idea for this one for awhile so I'm glad it's finally up! Here's a link to the posting and take a look at the pictures of it below!

Well, now that you've seen the Hazelwood Messenger... I'll tell you what you want to know about it.


I really like this bag because you can use it in a lot of different ways.  You can throw it on your shoulder as a tote or wear it as a messenger.  I wish I had this bag when I was in school.  It'll fit your day's worth of books.  But please, go back to your dorm and take a nap between your classes.  Just because you won't have to go back to your room, doesn't mean you shouldn't.  Hahaha.


It has a large exterior pocket for the items you want at you finger tips.  This pocket snaps closed with a single snap.  The main body of the bag closes with two snaps, also.
The interior of the bag has LOTS of pockets.  Several for your pens, pencils, and highlighters.  There are pockets that'll be perfect for your phone, ipod, calculator, and other gadgets!  I put a key clip in there, too!


The bag is available in all my canvas colors.  If you don't see a listing for the color you like, just ask!  You can get it as all one color, or in two tone.  And it's machine washable!!!


If you like specifics here are some measurements... Bag Measures approximately 20x5x16 & Adjustable Lobster Clip Strap Measures 1½' wide & adjusts between 29'& 55'.  Approximately.


I really love the minimal design and lines.  But the thing a love the most is its functionality.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

The long awaited Hazelwood Messenger is here!  Just in time for Back to School.  Check it out over at my Etsy Shop.  And take a look at these pictures.

Here's your next clue for the new item that's coming to Erika Elyn Creations!

I made a couple more Lawrenceville sleeves.  They'll make an appearance over on my Etsy shop sometime this week.  The first is based off of Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are.  The second is an embroidered sleeve.  It is a simple design that emphasizes the colors I used.

Take a look at these excellent treasuries.  Here's a Treasury done by Steel Town Etsy that featured my Red Shadyside Satchel...

That's right.  My birthday is nearing.  I'll be 24 on the 22nd.  I often find myself surfing Etsy for what I will get myself for my birthday.  But, since I have no money, I made this Wish List instead...

So every month everyone in the Handmade in PA Team is to make a treasury.  Take a look at mine for July....

Birthday Party Treasury!

I found this article on NPR today.  It's about a book that was written about E.B. White, the author of Charlotte's Web.  Looks pretty interesting.  Should I add it to my "To Read" List???
