Handbags serve a practical purpose

easy to carry storage for all the bits and bobs needed throughout the day.

For such purpose, utility is key.

Meet Kathleen Dustin, internationally recognised polymer clay artist.

inspired by the natural beauty of the

New Hampshire landscape  (where she resides)

and images from her world travels.

designer, Kathleen Dustin
