Gone To The Dogs


We all love our dogs, they are more than just dogs, they are members of the family. They make us laugh, greet us with such joy when we come home, and no matter how many mistakes we make on a daily basis, our dogs still love us.

 Bags By Hags has created the perfect Tote Bag for dog lovers everywhere.
Made from a recycled dog food bag, this tote is perfect as a market tote, or great for everyday use as well!


I lost the best 4 legged companion I ever had almost 2 years ago. I still miss her. Her favorite treat was bananas, just the other day I was making a Banana Pudding and while cutting up the bananas I started to cry, I always saved one banana for Cookie Monster. Her paw prints will be on my heart forever.


I am also a big advocate for adopting/rescuing dogs from a Shelter, especially older dogs as they seem to get overlooked because everyone wants a puppy. I saw this daily as back before I became Bags By Hags, I worked for Animal Control in Fairbanks, Alaska.

So love those dogs with all your heart, they sure love you! And please if you are thinking of adding a new dog to your family, visit your local shelter first, your best friend may just be waiting on you!


P.S. Please don't tell the cat about this post!

Keeping Your Sense Of Humor.....

Trying to have a successful business is serious stuff.  I am working so very hard to make Bags By Hags  a success, it is my dream - My Handmade Dream.  However I firmly believe you should keep your sense of humor, how can you go through the day without lightening up and laughing a bit? Especially at yourself sometimes.

Children know all about laughing and playing (we could learn a lot from children) this is my middle granddaughter Anna.  She is such a little cut up always giggling and laughing, yesterday she decided to put the strainer on her head to look through the holes and giggle.
I laughed and laughed at this photo, laughter is good for our soul!

Sewing is also something that soothes my soul, I love to design and create unique items, yesterday I took a lightweight denim jumper, designed a tote bag and came up with this.
This is my Americana Tote perfect for the Summer! 

I hope you do something today that soothes your soul, especially laugh!  I know I will be going back to look at that picture of my granddaughter to get me a good giggle for days to come!
