Artisanat d'Art Made in France

One evening, an order came in for the “Albatros” mini travel bag in its “Signes” version.
🥳 After a little happy dance, I prepared the package for shipping the next day...
But the following morning, an email arrived: order canceled 😢. After double-checking, the bag turned out to be too small.

No problem—I replied to Charlotte that I completely understood and told her about my custom service in case she wanted a larger version.
Bingo! She sent me her baby wrap to transform, and while waiting for it to arrive I suggested several “travel bag” models, just to be sure. In the end, we decided to stick with the original design.

When the wrap arrived, we held a video call so I could show her the complementary materials and hardware that would pair well with her wrap. We selected a few, and to make her decision easier I took plenty of photos and videos, both in sunlight and in shade.
I even made a photo montage to help her visualize the materials layout.

Finally, I got to work, sending her photos of the progress along the way, and even proposed an improvement over the original design: a sleeve to slip over suitcase handles.

Just before the holidays I shipped her bag, ready for all her travels.
After the summer break, she sent me photos of it in use and left me a message that warmed my heart:

I thank Marie a thousand times for the custom travel bag she created from a keepsake baby wrap.
She was very attentive to my requests, adapted to my needs, always offered solutions, and responded very quickly! The finishing is of very high quality and I will not hesitate to call on her again if the desire arises 😊
