handbags and gladrags

I plan to sell handbags in my site but I don't know how to present them in a way that the client will also like the packaging. (simply wrapping it in a clear plastic bag and shipping it off won't make clients feel special) Ü

they should feel special enough getting one of your bags...don't go too over the top....often, a too-pretty package indicates not much inside. let your merchandise speak the loudest. but, if you want to do something a little extra, hand-write for:_______, enjoy your ______ handbag....later on, you can have your shipping dept. do it for you. :) good luck.

You can put them in a box that fits the bag. I dont really know.

Anyone can put a handbag in box or gift bag. Make the handbag itself the gift presentation. Use matching colorful gift tissue or cellophane paper, beads, large glitter square/shapes (tiny ones would get all in the handbag), small stuffed animals, shiny wrapped candy, matching faux designer logo key chains or other small accessories, fancy feather pens etc. Be creative! People will love the little extras that come with the bags (don't forget to include the extras in your price). You could also make the bag into a gift basket by putting filler tissue in the bottom, placing a stuffed animal or something on top and covering the entire bag with clear cellophane and a bow. Hey! How about a bottle of moderately priced wine or champagne, with pretty silk flowers in the gift basket handbag? I think that would be cool!

put it in a box!!!!!!!!!!!

Surround them in colorful tissue paper and place them in a nice box. I would be satisfied with that packaging if I purchased a bag.

Good luck with your business!

I'm planning to sell contemporary designed handbags hand woven out of pandanus leaves. Will this sell well online?

As long as they are stylish you shouldn't have a problem, but you have to do lot's of marketing for people to visit your website. Maybe you could give afew away for free to get a buzz started.

I love Coach, Dooney, Kate Spade, etc. handbags and I would love to find a place to be able to buy them discounted, even if they are last season's. I buy some on ebay but wondered if there were other places.

Yes, of course! Always check with your nearest outlet malls. Most of them have these retailers and when you catch them going through a good sale, you'll find great deals. Also, try Designersimports.com and if you have a Filene's Basement close by, that's a good place to look too.

i like target for kathy bags and ebay for others check it out

outlets

maybe marshalls

There is a website where you can actually rent upascale handbags if you want something new regularly. Much cheaper than buying! I dont remember what the website is, but you can Google it.

TJ maxx, oh and on dooney they put their on sale purses under specials on the website it's the very last thing to click on the toolbar. Outlet malls are alot cheaper, i got a COACH tote for 80$ in season, hope this helps.

omg i just got a very cute coach bag origanally 125 for 45 dollars at tj max!!!!! GREAT store

i know a few upscale second-hand shops, they're not the dusty kind & they only accept top quality items...you could try to find one near you

Coach has factory outlets at outlet malls. Check the Coach website.

Dooney has a big sale at its HQ in Norwalk, Connecticut in December and June for some serious discounts (75%).

Look here for Dooney specials:

http://www.dooney.com/OA_HTML/ibeCCtpSctDspRte.jsp?section=10028

I would look up any outlet stores in your area.

bluefly.com runs really good bargins, you need to sift through them though.

I got a great bag long ago at Ross... worth checking if you have one.

If you want to buy those expensive bags, you need to go to a real boutique and pay the really expensive prices. No matter what any seller says, "cheaper" versions of the bags are typically fake. Chances of getting a real authentic coach for cheap is unlikely.

macys. look up for dooney and burke or kathy von zeeland. or something.

i got and ah-dorable coach purse for my bff for her b-day

and we arent all that rich and my dad let me

it was like 30 dollars

although it was used when i got it in i thought it was brand new

I have so many purses/handbags and bags in general, and I'm looking for an inexpensive and space efficient way to store them. Right now I have them in a big gray rubbermaid container, but that makes it difficult since I can't see all of them and never know which one I'm looking for. I want to be able to see them all but in an organized manner. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance :o)

hummm... here are some ideas:

hang them in your closet on hangers; just like your clothes. Not enough room in your closet? sort them by color- put smaller bags inside of larger bags matched by color, and then hang them in the closet.

get coat hooks and hang them all along one bed room wall; it could be considered a new & funky way to decorate.

got a shelf above your closet? empty it out and store them there. I think it would look quite tidy; a closet with bags on the top, clothes on the hanger, and shoes in the bottom.

think they'd fit in a shoe organizer? an over-the-door organizer would be great, i think... but i can't find one that will organize bags. here is a shoe one:

http://www.tvoverstocks.com/shoes-away-shoe-organizer.html

here is one that hangs in the closet for sweaters:

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41Dw1xJe41L._AA280_.jpg

or, here are some stackable bins that could be sat anywhere... i have seen something like this at the dollar store; but the ones i saw were white and rubbermaid, but these will give you the idea:

http://www.davisbaconmh.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=131

you may try buy handbags or bags in my site:http://www.hihandbag.com http://answers.yahoo.com/question/accuse_write?qid=20080125042143AAIeeLy&kid=BYRQWkXaD0dUWdUdj6wv&s=comm&date=2008-07-04+01%3A39%3A53&.crumb=

There was and may still be available a hanging organizer for shoes that can be used for purses. It made of plastic and hangs from your closet shelf rod. WalMart carried it. Also,can use either a 3 or 6 shelf book case and just stand them up like books.

they have over the door racks or closet organizers for purses...check walmart or taget, on-line too

Sort them by use, by season and/or by size and then put them in smaller, clear plastic storage bins which you can store on the top shelf of your closet.

If you are still not satisfied that you know exactly which bags are in which container, take a snapshot of each bag and attached the photos to the front of the container, showing you, at-a-glance, exactly which bags are in each container.

I don't know how to sew, but I am learning so I'm a beginner. I want to start designing handbags and am looking for a great beginner sewing machine for a good price (no more than 200 dollars) that will help me to start. Any suggestions?

Website links would be nice.

For most handbag fabrics, you're looking for power, and I can't think of a new $200 machine that will give that to you. You'd be far better off with a good used machine. Be sure, when you're shopping, to bring samples of the sorts of materials you want to sew.

http://www.cet.com/~pennys/faq/smfaq.htm

What I want for beginners in sewing:

- a machine that doesn't scare you

- a machine that isn't balky (cheap new machines are often very

balky or need adjustments often and are rarely repairable --

just too frustrating to learn on!)

- very good straight stitch

- good zigzag (4-5 mm is fine, more than that is gravy)

- a method of making buttonholes that makes sense to you

- adjustable presser foot pressure (which helps some fabric

handling issues)

- accessory presser feet that don't cost an arm and a leg

(machines that use a "short shank foot" typically handle

generic presser feet pretty well. Some brands of machines use

proprietary or very expensive presser feet)

If the budget stretches far enough:

- blindhem and stretch blindhem stitches

- triple zigzag (nice for elastic applications)

- a couple of decorative stitches (you won't use them nearly as

much as you think)

- electronic machine because of the needle position control and

because the stepper motors give you full "punching force" at

slow sewing speeds -- mechanical machines often will stall at

slow speeds.

Please go to the best sewing machine dealers around and ask them

to show you some machines in your price range, *especially* used

machines you can afford. You'll get a far better machine buying

used than new, and a good dealer is worth their weight in sewing

machine needles when you get a machine problem -- often they can

talk you through the problem over the phone. While you're trying

things out, try a couple of machines (sewing only, not combo

sewing-embroidery) over your price limit, just so you can see

what the difference in stitch quality and ease of use might be.

You may find you want to go for the used Cadillac. Or you might

want the new basic Chevy. Might as well try both out.

Suggested reading: John Giordano's The Sewing Machine Book

(especially for used machines), Carol Ahles' Fine Machine Sewing

(especially the first and last few chapters) and Gale Grigg

Hazen's Owner's Guide to Sewing Machines, Sergers and Knitting

Machines. All of these are likely to be available at your public

library.

Used brands I'd particularly look for: Elna, Bernina,

Viking/Husqvarna, Pfaff, Singer (pre 1970), Juki, Toyota

New "bargain brand" I'd probably pick: Janome (who also does

Kenmore).

Our Replica handbags are becoming more and more popular as women around the world try to achieve the latest fashion look without paying thousands of dollars for one designer replica handbag.

Hi, future handbag designer extraordinaire!

The best way to find the machine that is right for you is to go to as many dealers as you can find.

Ask if they have a machine within your budget and do they have sewing lessons.

They will give you a demo and let you try your hand at running the machine.

A brand new machine will come with a manufacturer's warranty and a free "introduction to the machine" lesson. There is normally a charge for any other lessons.

You may get a better machine if you purchase a gently used machine that the dealer knows (sold it and serviced it). It should have a limited warranty from the dealer.

Major brands (Bernina, Husqvarna/Viking, Babylock, Brother & Janome) do not normally advertise their suggested price.

But, some of these companies have certain models that are sold in fabric stores. There is no support, the machines are just merchandise.

You can get the prices on-line for Kenmore (Sears & K-Mart) and Brother models that are sold at (Walmart, Costco and Allbrands). These machines come with the manufacturer's warranty and that's it.

Stay away from any Singer built after 1965 - the company is no longer up to the standard they once held so high.

Best wishes for finding a good machine and for much success in your future business adventure.

PJ

You're going to need a sturdy machine, like the answer above me points out, handbags often involve heavy fabric and lots of layers. Depending on your materials, you may also want to invest in a leather needle and a good zipper foot.

Luckily, $200 is plenty for a good beginner machine. I'm kind of partial to Brother sewing machines personally but you might find another brand has the features you want. Check your local yellow pages for a sewing machine shop. They tend to have better service, and you won't just be standing in the aisle wondering what to get, like you would at Target or a place like that.

If you are going to be doing bags you will probably be using heavier fabric and at times, several layers. I would go with the best basic model you can afford. Start with one that does straight stitching, has a reverse, has zig zag and does buttonholes. Check with your local sewing machine store. Most have good used machines people have used to trade in for new ones.

Great!!

Or not spending a lot of money. I have all kinds of authentic handbags that I would like to sell either to individuals or boutiques. I don't want to use ebay or craigslist. Can you help me out?

you can advertise at yahoo and google with free.I have a $100 yahoo advertising coupon and $50 google adword coupon.I give you for free.Increase your product sales with that coupon.i have a $100 face book advertising coupon too.If you want,i sell to you only $5.If you buy it from me,i give you 1 more $100 face book advertising coupon for free.Contact me at my profile or

Well, I would go to a small clothing boutique or even one of those Hallmark small stores and ask the manager if you can have a display to sell your bags and they would get a certain percentage of the sale. You provide the display. Also, go to a consignment shop. Each consignment shop is different so it is best to find the best one with the most shoppers.

I'd love to see what you are selling!!!! I could be a potential customer if your bags are authentic and current in style!

Why don't you want to use ebay? For what you want to do it would be the best option :)

If you want to get more serious, you could design a webpage, put the pictures of all the handbags there and promote the page heavily (you could use e.g. http://adtactics.com/s.php?krzys

or http://www.easyhits4u.com/?ref=krzys and obviously get as many links to it as possible.

I still think that ebay would be the best option for you.

I work at a retail as manager and I am currently one of the top in the incentive program. I want suggestions on how to improve my business. How would you sell more handbags?

Advertising. Online, flyers, newspapers, etc. Big signs offering a great price on handbags in your shop window.

Try to think of unique features the handbags have compared to others and include that information in your advertising.

Good luck!

you should talk directly to the customers, make some calls, give them your website and tel # so they can see the merchandise and if they like what they see they will sure place an order and refer others. that simple. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/accuse_write?qid=20070826220918AAePUPO&kid=F6xVXkPpFnHPKXGHiHeI&s=comm&date=2007-12-29+13%3A25%3A32&.crumb=

10. Why does it always rain on me

(Just a fun exercise, not home work.)

SLEEPING IN SEATTLE

“Why does it always rain on me?” wailed Charlie. “I dunno,” replied Alice. “Maybe because we live in Seattle.”

“Oh! Yeah! Isn’t it great?” asked Charlie. “What say we have a fun weekend, Alice?”

“Sure, I heard there was a wine and cheese tasting party tonight at Ye Olde Wine Shoppe,” offered Alice. “Who’s In?”

Charlie volunteered, “Only, little old wine drinker me! I’ll just run next door to my apartment, and change out of these wet clothes. Back in a flash!”

“That’s one advantage of living next door to Alice. I don’t have to go far to take her home,“ said Charlie to his cats, Handbags & Gladrags ("Bags" & "Rags".) “I don’t know why we don’t all just move in together and save the rent.”

Charlie let himself back into Alice’s apartment with his key. He then suggested, “Hey, Baby! Since the rain let up, wouldn’t it be fun to go up to the observation deck of the Space Needle, and look out over the city?"

Alice agreed, “OK, as long as we go to the wine and cheese tasting party later. I have a gift card I want to use.”

Charlie and Alice were soon riding up on the elevator at the Space Needle, when all of a sudden it STOPPED!!!….. “Oh! No! I’m stuck in the middle with you, and we don’t even have any elevator music, complained Alice.”

“Not a problem,” laughed Charlie, “Do I love you, my oh my. Yeah River deep, Mountain high, yeah, yeah, yeah.”

“On second thought, maybe I could think of something else to do!” Alice said sensuously. “C’mere Charlie!” And--that is where they fell asleep--well NOT right away.

Next morning, the elevator repair man pried open the doors, and said, “Hey you two, “Morning has Broken, and you don’t have to search for the hero ‘cause I’m right here in front of you."

Alice said, “Why, you’re like one of the knights in white satin.....er, in shining armor." "Or, blue cover-alls," laughed the elevator repair man.

“See, Alice, didn’t I promise you a fun weekend?” asked Charlie.

Alice replied huskily, “You’re a fool if you think its over.”

You gave me some good lines to work with. I had fun with it. Thanks for pts. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/accuse_write?qid=20071013144137AAAyb6s&kid=NplsIUTqOGoXTPOeHke.&s=comm&date=2007-10-15+00%3A32%3A58&.crumb=

My 40th High School Reunion

Oct. , 1873

"Sunshine's High School Reunion"

Subtitle...."The Best Is Yet To Come"

Hello. Sunshine MacGillicutty, here. I left Dodge City a couple of weeks ago to attend a reunion with my old school chums in Virginia.

(1) River deep mountain high......Nothing would have stopped me from reconnecting with the dear friends of my youth. My boyfriend, U.S.Marshal Matt Dillon, came with me.

On Friday night we attended the reception. (3) Handbags & Gladrags...... Man oh man........Everyone was decked-out for this most gala affair.

Matt looked marvelous. As he walked into the room, I heard one of my classmates say,"WOW!! Talk about your (4) Knights in white satin.....Ol' Sunshine did quite nice for herself. Yes sir.....Hmmmm....QUITE nice!"

Her husband poked her in the ribs with his elbow, annoyed at her outburst. She just looked at him in and muttered....."You search and (8) Search for the hero all your life......humph!! And here I am......between a rock and a hard place, (9) Stuck in the middle with you!!"

I giggled and held on tighter to my gorgeous one as we weaved our way through the crowd, straight to the bar.

(5) Little old wine drinker me just had to have some Asti Spumante to get the dust from the road out of my mouth!

The Friday night reception was wonderful but it was the Saturday night dinner dance that was the highlight. By the time we arrived the place was jam-packed. We weaved our way through the crowd and took two seats at a table. We were soon joined by our tablemates. Dinner was delicious and the conversations were pure delight! We laughed and laughed at all our recounts of a time in our lives when we were mere teenagers, ready to conquer the world. After dinner the band started playing and the dancefloor was flooded with smiling faces and happy feet. Everyone danced with everyone. At one point, three of my girlfriends and I were hugging and swaying to the BIG HIT of our senior year........

" I Wanna Steal Your Attention Like A Bad Outlaw."

♫ " I cain't rope me a wild steer. I cain't sit still that long.

I cain't shoot me a bad guy. I'm not brave or that strong.

I'm just a regular fella. I got my strenghts and my flaws.

I wanna steal your attention like a bad outlaw. ♫"

When the song ended and the dancing stopped, we cried like babies. I walked over to Matt and dissolved in his arms. He asked what had happened. I told him that I might never see these people again....These wonderful people who I grew up with and that all the good times were over.....Gone.

He looked down gently in my face as he wiped a tear from my cheek and said, " You'd be a (2) Fool if you think its over, baby. Don't you know, SunnyMac....The best is yet to come."

Why does it always rain on me when I am stuck in the middle with you. Living next door to Alice with her stupid handbags and gladrags was driving me crazy. Little old wine drinker me who's morning has broken was upset. I told Alice's husband, fool if you think its over I will search for the hero and bring my knights in white satin. As he gave up I and Alice crossed the river deep mountain high!

Morning has broken and we are in Search for the hero. Living next door to Alice is like Knights in white satin. We had Handbags & Gladrags And I was Stuck in the middle with you, Why does it always rain on me, I just feel like a Little old wine drinker me. You'd be a Fool if you think it;s over,cause it's over the River deep mountain high

Its A Poem ....

There Was Once Knights in white satin looking down river deep stood on mountin high living next door to alice who was in search of a hero but she was stuck in the middle of you singing why does it always rain on me with her handbangs and gladrags fool if you think its over its not i still love you because morning has broken says alice..

Rod Stewart

"Handbags and Gladrags" is the name of a song written by Mike d'Abo of Manfred Mann fame.

In 1967, singer Chris Farlowe was the first to release a version of the song. It became a #33 hit in the United Kingdom for Immediate Records.

: )

Rod Stewart.

The Stereophonics did a cover of it, and that is the version used for the titles to 'The Office'.

Chris Farlowe did the original

Rod Stewart also covered it the the stereophonics

In 1967, singer Chris Farlowe was the first to release a version of the song. It became a #33 hit in the United Kingdom for Immediate Records.

Rod Stewart sang a later version, the version used as the theme tune for The Office was sung by Fin of Waysted fame.

I still love the song-Rod Stewart's version, of course!! However I never really understood the lyrics. Who is speaking??? What is the message?? Am I sounding too much like an English teacher ?? Can anyone enlighten me?

It was originally sung by Chris Farlowe in 1967 :)

It's about the girl taking everything for granted, and believing that having the latest clothes and accesories will make her fit in and get her where she wants to be. But she forgets that someone else had to pay for them for her, and that looking trendy will get her nowhere if she doesn't have an education.

Amazing how relevant that still is today!

He's telling the little rich girl that her fancy clothes and matching accessories won't get her anywhere in the real world so she'd better stay in school.

Its about a woman whos vain- note the handbags, she loses everyone around her- note the grandad!

It's a lesson in appreciating what you have, where it came from and not taking for granted those things which you have not earned yourself.

handbags are handbags - gladrags are your clothes

i think stereophonics sang it better

It's about a girl without a true sense of value. She's to wrapped up in herself to see what's going on around her.

Chris Farlowe did the original in 1967 and Rod did a version in 1969.

It was written by Mike D'Arbo who used to be the lead singer of Manfred Mann.

yup he did the original

Yes he did

yes

Rod did a version

sorry, jordan j, but the song was originally sung by chris farlowe in 1967.

Yes, he did. See web address for the complete "version history" for this song.

i think better, the first version of anything is usually better, but thats a matter of opinion, and thats mine

yes

Yes, he released it in 1972.

yh he sang the oringinal

Yes, in his hay day Rod Stewart was one of the best Rock/Soul voices of his generation.

What the Stereophonics did was a cover version of the Rod Stewart record.

That version is actually done by the Stereophonics. The song has a really interesting history, there must be like 50 different versions of it. Rod Stewart sang it when he was in the Faces or maybe it was the Small Faces at that point. The Stereophonics do a really great cover of it for the show. Search Stereophonics on altnet.com I think you can buy it there.

i know a song with this title but its by rod stewart;

ever see a blind man cross the road

trying to make the other side

ever see a young girl growing old

trying to make herself a bride

so what becomes of you my love

when they have finally stripped you of

the handbag and gladrags

that your granddad had to sweat so you could buy

once i was a young man

and all i thought i had to do was smile

you are still a young girl

and you bought everything in style

listen

but once you think you're in you're out

cause you dont mean a single thing without

the handbags and gladrags

that your granddad had to sweat so you could buy

sing a song of sixpence for your sake

and take a bottle full with rye

four and twenty blackbirds in a cake

and bake them all in a pie

they told me you missed school today

so what i suggest you just throw them all away

the handbags and the gladrags

that your poor old granddad had to sweat to buy

the song at the end of the show

Ask in the music section. They might know.

Rod Stewart

I believe that Rod Stewart sang if first, I might be wrong though.

Rod Stewart I think.

i know it was the theme in the office but thought id seen it in a film somewhere as well.

any ideas........

Sorry. But apart from Ricky Gervais' version, I've never heard it used in films. You can look up this song on wikipedia, and it doesn't list any movie credits.

Looking for who sings theme song in openning of the english show The Office. The song is Handbags and Gladrags.

The popular version you find on the radio is by Stereophonics, but the theme song version for The Office is sung by a band called Fin.

hi,,, it is a Rod Stewart song....

good luck

i think the credits read as the stereophonics sing it, but not possitive

stereophonics

In the English BBC show The Office, Handbags and Gladrags song is performed by Fin. Does anyone know where I can purchase this CD? I am looking for "Office" soundtrack CD, but can not locate.
