| Your baby's picture on a handbag! Look at what my husband got me for Christmas. He got a picture of Winston painted on a handbag for me. The artist's name is Judith. Here is her website: http://www.garnettaart.com/ You pay for just the handbag and she'll paint your baby's picture on it for you. Look at the comparison between Winston's picture on the bag and the print. All my friends think I'm nuts... but I know you'all would think it's great.... |

| Thank you. I thought Judith did a great job too. I love the purse. It's an Etienne Aigner leather purse. She has lots of handbags, checkbook cover, wallets, etc. We paid for the full price of the purse and shipping & handling. |

| This gal is really a good artist and her prices seem very reasonable for the quality of her products and especially for the quality of her work. I'm so impressed! |

| I have been saving my money to get a wallet and purse with my girls on it. Looks like this lady does beautiful work, I had someone in mind already to purchase from but I may have to rethink who I am going to buy from now. |

| I really am very happy with Judith's work. Not one person that saw the purse questions that it is not Winston. She captured his expressions and coloring. I am hoping to get a checkbook cover to match. |

| I am a painter and I have to say that Judith does a very excellent job! It is not easy to paint on a surface like leather and she really did it well! Winston definately looks like Winston, and thats hard to capture too!!! The handbag looks like nice quality too! Kudos! Do you know if she uses acrylic paints? Will it rub off over time or is it treated with something to preserve it? I'll look at her website, thanks! I like! Might have to get one too! By the way, you must have a great husband too. My husband would never think of a gift like that, unless I handed him the info. Very nice!!!!!

| I think she used acrylic paint. It doesn't rub off. We actually met Judith at a dog show in Anderson, SC. I choose the bag but Robert did the rest. So it is not totally his idea.... he did insist that I get it. I was feeling so guilty spending over $90 for a handbag so I told him to give it to me as a Christmas gift.... You have no idea how much stuff I've been buying since we got Winston last May. It is really a sickness. |
