songlines ... bags with a story

on my journey to find pre-loved fabrics with an australian story, to create bags with a story that will then continue with the buyer

    get the hoses out

    sometimes you can find inspiration in the most unlikely of all places. in this case a friend spotted these bags while we were walking around in the rain in nürnberg, germany. they were on display at an optometrist in some hidden corner of the city.

    http://www.feuerwear.de transforms old fire engine hoses into awesome bags. i have seen the same approach in the uk. great idea!

    once i have managed to get my current prototypes up and running this will be the next material on my to do list. reckon there will be a work cover issue again with using the material .. new challenges all the way!

    ps: a BIG thank you to all the friends who help me find cool inspirational bags all over the world :-)

    crafted from re-used australian materials, songlines' products inspire you to explore their past and create their future ... bags with a story. the start of the journey.

    the name 'songlines' was inspired by the dreaming tracks of indigenous australians, which are invisible paths across the land (or, sometimes the sky) which mark the route followed by a localized 'creator-spirit' during the dreaming. The paths of the songlines are recorded in traditional songs, stories, dance, and painting ... I want my bags to pass on similar stories :-)
