ABOUT PANDAS

Panda Purses are designed and created by me, Susan Stockton. They are named Pandas because they are made of bamboo. I designed the original panda purse after seeing a bamboo placemat and thinking that, combined with beautiful cotton/batik fabric, it would make a striking purse. After that, I began getting requests from others to make and sell my purses. Since that time, Panda Purses have been sold all around the country and in some parts of the world. The line has grown to include Panda Purses, Panda Satchels, Panda Travelers, Panda Valises, Panda Pockets, and E-read covers. The nice thing about Pandas is that no two purses are alike. So no one else will have a purse exactly like yours. The exception are the themed purses--musical and puppy pandas.

 

 

 

PANDA PURSES

The main idea behind the Panda Line is easy access. Therefore, each purse or satchel will have outside pockets for cell phones, i-pods, etc. Plus, inside dividers to separate the clutter of coupons, lipsticks, combs, etc from your wallet. It's surprising how much will fit into a Panda. The handles on Panda Purses are long enough to carry over-the-shoulder, yet not too cumbersome to carry at your side. And they are well balanced to fit comfortably under your arm. Of course the bamboo and cotton construction make them extremely lightweight--which is less stress on your shoulders and neck. The flap on a Panda Purse closes with a secure magnetic snap.

All Panda Purses, Valises, Satchels and Travelers have protective feet

 

PANDA VALISES

Panda Valises are the largest of the Panda Line-yet the cotton and bamboo construction makes them very lightweight for their size. Pockets span the perimeter outside and inside. And the structure keeps the inside contents in full view for easy access. Handles are long enough to carry over your shoulder or by your side. And the flap stays close with a magnetic clasp or turn lock.

 

 

 

 

PANDA TRAVELERS

Panda travelers are the perfect size satchel. They open up completely so you can see virtualy everything in your purse at a glance. Pockets span the perimeter of the inside and outside to hold everything you need to get at quickly--phones, pens, business cards, etc. The strap is long and lightweight for a comfortable fit over your shoulder or by your side. And every Panda Traveler features a cute little lampwork panda with a colorful, coordinating tassle.

 

PANDA POCKETS

This fun-size purse is small and extremely lightweight with an adjustable strap that can be carried across your body or shortened to carry by your side. Two outside pockets on the back will hold a cell phone or i-pod. The inside has pockets that span the perimeter like the traveler. Perfect for quick, hands-free shopping trips.

 

 

 

PANDA E-READER COVERS

These e-reader covers were designed for the Nook Color, but will fit many e-readers of similar size. Made of the same lightweight cotton fabric and bamboo and are padded to protect your reader. The cover can flip around for reading and secures with a magnetic clasp.

NEW PANDA JEWELRY

To complete your look, I've added unique hand-crafted jewelry. The Viking Collection is a beautiful, intricate wire weave that was used by the Vikings centuries ago to construct their armor. The Jungle Collection features the popular animal print bracelets and earrings. Plus lots of gemstone necklaces, bracelets and earrings in beautiful colors. There is a selection for ages 5-95. And the price selection will meet any budget with peace-sign, gemstone panda and turtle items beginning at $4.00.

 

PANDA CARD HOLDERS

I love everything about bamboo. It's lightweight, yet durable. It's renewable and lovely to look at. So it only made sense to add bamboo card holders to the line. A simple, yet effective way to hold business or credit cards in an assortment of colorful Panda cotton fabrics. The flap stays secure with velcro.

 

 

Thanks to all of my wonderful customers for loving the Panda Line as much as I do. And especially for taking the time to tell me how much they enjoy owning a Panda. I sell Pandas to fund my love to make and design more. I try to keep Pandas as affordable as possible, but as they are all one of a kind, each fabric and embellishment is individually selected and not bought in bulk. I'm always on the lookout for antique buttons, costume jewelry, gemstones and materials that want to become part of a purse in their next lives.
