Hi there, I'm Bendi Woods and I'm here to introduce you to a fabulous new product just out on the market.

 

ARTRAT BAGS

http://media-files.gather.com/images/d184/d471/d745/d224/d96/f3/full.jpg

this one is peachy and holds a good amount with a nice wide strap without being too big.

This one is great for those cutie little pastel sun dresses for the spring.

Looking for something to dress up your Little Black Dress?  Try this HAWT little number that has a fuzzy red border to accent your trendy red shoes.

Feel at home with Mother Nature when you sport this subdued, yet visually textural pouch.

When the going gets tough, I like to hide my valuables in this camo camera bag.  As you can see by my drop foot, Art Ticulated and I are a perfect pair.

Help save the environment by using this tote as a Green Grocery bag!  It's the ethical thing to do.

Need a nice bag for those weekend getaways or perhaps just a quick trip to the beach?  This large crocheted tote will get you there in style.

http://media-files.gather.com/images/d191/d471/d745/d224/d96/f3/full.jpg

This tote bag will sure make it easy to take Art Ticulated to the hospital after one of his many adventures and still leave you room for your books and snacks.

So you too can be stunningly fashionable with one of these one of a kind handcrafted bags by ARTRAT artist C.C. Miranda

I'm Bendi Woods and thanks for tuning in.

I have got to have the red and black one ~ how much and do you accept PayPal?
April H. Jan 29, 2009, 5:50pm EST
Love them!
Vicky Duggins Jan 29, 2009, 5:55pm EST
What wonderful models for your bags. I can see why they talk about models should eat more, however.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 5:59pm EST
gather mail me for more information on how you can get one, so i don't violate TOS.
Marianne R. Jan 29, 2009, 6:01pm EST
Quite the spokes model, lol. Nice work. You made these?
The textured one?! I adore it! It's gorgeous!
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 6:05pm EST
yes marianne. it's what i do when i can't stand at the easel.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 6:05pm EST
that was the first one i made joy. i love how that one came out too.
Fran S. Jan 29, 2009, 6:17pm EST
these are really pretty!!
Grems 'gremlin' Jan 29, 2009, 6:22pm EST
Bendy and Art: Great job with the presentation.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 6:29pm EST
thanks.

grems, it's Bendi (with an I)

she's the strong one in the relationship. apparently Art likes a woman who can carry him when he's hurt on assignment.
Grems 'gremlin' Jan 29, 2009, 6:33pm EST
so sorry Bendi, I understand wanting ones' name spelled correctly.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 6:40pm EST
grems, you know those girls who spell their names with an I at the end are usually pretty specific about that.
Chris E. Jan 29, 2009, 6:42pm EST
Those are really nice!
Grems 'gremlin' Jan 29, 2009, 6:48pm EST
I hope I did not incite a hissy fit with a hair flip, and eye roll and a foot stomp! Oh wait, no foot stomp and that would mean she would drop Art.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 6:52pm EST
it would also mean she would need hair.
carmel m. Jan 29, 2009, 6:54pm EST
Does the last tote come with an Art Ticulated?

Love these bags. Especially the fourth one down.
Sandy (Site Psychic™) Knauer Jan 29, 2009, 7:12pm EST
The bags are cute as can be, and the presentation perfect.
ack! You have peeples in a bowl!
*Carol ~Bronx Southern Belle D. Jan 29, 2009, 7:39pm EST
I hearby accuse you of being a La La Land whacky whack-o. Want the job? It's yours.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 7:40pm EST
carmel, no Art Ticulated is not included in purchase
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 7:40pm EST
thanks sandy.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 7:41pm EST
debra, i saw your comment and it took me a moment to figure out what you meant. tee hee. my house is full of odd stuff like that.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 7:41pm EST
carol, does it pay well?
Aniko   Jan 29, 2009, 7:46pm EST
I like the "Mother Nature" one too. (I don't own a little black dress or red shoes.)
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 7:49pm EST
aniko, i kept combining varying colors of yarn in that one at random to get that effect. it was a great way to use up the smaller balls of yarn.
I just stuff everything in my bra. ™

But you do good on them bags.
Roy ☯ Hilbinger Jan 29, 2009, 8:01pm EST
Given the disparity in sizes, is Bendi or art the freak in their world? Either Bendi is freakishly tall, or Art's a midget!

Or is Art still just a little kid and Bendi's his Mom?
Roy ☯ Hilbinger Jan 29, 2009, 8:02pm EST
Actually, until I saw Art in the bag farther down the line, I thought Bendi was Art doing drag.
James s F. Jan 29, 2009, 8:09pm EST
while the photos are cute, I think you need to add a wristwatch as a bandoleer around the mannikin,
or a dollar bill folded as a hat or scarf to give some scale to the bag sizes.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 8:12pm EST
roy, did you not see Art's other adventures? He's an adult. Bendi just happens to be a bit on the zaftig side. I think she's from the Amazon.com region of the butcher's block.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 8:13pm EST
admittedly, while Bendi is rather tall, she's lacking in the bust area.
flit . Jan 29, 2009, 8:14pm EST
those are great
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 8:17pm EST
thanks flit.
Sue * Jan 29, 2009, 8:40pm EST
This post turned out great, as are the purses.
Kimber L. Jan 29, 2009, 9:30pm EST
I think they are neat!
Cholette W. Jan 29, 2009, 10:03pm EST
Those are great!
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 29, 2009, 10:12pm EST
thanks sue, kimber and cholette
they are beautiful must have my daughter look and make me one
Connie C. Jan 30, 2009, 1:45am EST
Wow CC You are one talented lady. I love them.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 30, 2009, 1:46am EST
thanks connie.
Lyn Owen Jan 30, 2009, 2:20am EST
Cool bags.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 30, 2009, 2:46am EST
oh look, i've been flagged for something. i wonder if someone feels threatened by yarn?
Sandy (Site Psychic™) Knauer Jan 30, 2009, 2:53am EST
More likely threatened by talent.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 30, 2009, 2:55am EST
most likely Sandy.
Ann M. (Site Scryer) Jan 30, 2009, 9:36am EST
Hmmmm. I love you bags, but I'm not seeing a lot of surrealism here.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 30, 2009, 12:13pm EST
ann, did i accidentally post to that? sorry.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 30, 2009, 12:15pm EST
Padre, I think someone either has a fear of yarn and all things creative, or a phobia of bendable wooden figures.

perhaps someone is jealous of the attention that Bendi gets?
Katherine M. Jan 30, 2009, 1:21pm EST
Very nice job!!!
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 30, 2009, 1:51pm EST
thank you katherine
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 30, 2009, 3:24pm EST
HOORAY FOR GATHER! Thank you for removing the pointless flag!
Jen G. Jan 30, 2009, 7:06pm EST
I like the earthy one.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 30, 2009, 7:57pm EST
Sandy Knauer, your status message about not being scared of handbags is great!
MrsRoad Runner Jan 31, 2009, 12:00pm EST
Can we say Oregon Country fair....these would sale like hot cakes!
MrsRoad Runner Jan 31, 2009, 12:14pm EST

CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 31, 2009, 12:56pm EST
MrsRoad Runner, i've never been to Oregon, i wish i could afford to go.
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Jan 31, 2009, 12:56pm EST
thanks sharon
Ellie !. Feb 1, 2009, 1:44am EST
I have a thing about bags...and shoes, too. Maybe it's because they never make my butt look big...hahahaha! I like the black and red, and the Nature Girl ones best...I haven't crocheted a bag in years...I wonder if I still have my patterns from the early '70s...I think I'll have to look. I know I still have my baby booties, panda bear and granny square vest patterns if you're interested!
Ellie !. Feb 1, 2009, 1:45am EST
I wish you could afford to come to Oregon, too...you would fit right in. And not just in Eugene...Portland has it's arty side, too.
charity kimball ツ Feb 1, 2009, 11:41am EST

alicia h. Feb 1, 2009, 1:09pm EST

Kelly K. Feb 5, 2009, 1:10pm EST
Cute bags!
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Feb 6, 2009, 5:00pm EST
ellie, i'd love to be able to go to portland.

thanks everyone.
Trish A. Feb 7, 2009, 2:52pm EST
CC, art just spews out of you!
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Feb 7, 2009, 3:10pm EST
i'm making my dad a blanket for his birthday. i need to get more yarn for it though, but it's coming along quickly.

thanks trish. the crocheting is really helping me keep sane right now.
Sheila Deeth Feb 8, 2009, 1:05am EST
Such fun. And great models.
sharon SugarMomma is a wise woman, Feb 8, 2009, 5:25pm EST
I just got my bags. CC, they are beautiful and so well made. The material is gorgeous. Groceries will not be going in these puppies. These will carry things for meetings and extras when I'm doing events.

I thought Bendi would be pleased to know that he represents a quality product.
Michael the #2 Ninja Kitteh Feb 10, 2009, 11:17am EST
I love 'em! I gotta send you a picture of 2007's Ugliest Garage Sale Item Ever-- a flurescent green macrame purse... I want to see Bendi modelling THAT!
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Nov 5, 2009, 11:44pm EST
she is intrigued.
Mariana T. Feb 14, 2009, 2:46pm EST
CC - great presentation! Lovely colors and very unique! Salud
APE 131313 Feb 19, 2009, 4:13pm EST
I am here to help you reach your Gather goals!
Cortney R. Mar 15, 2009, 5:51pm EDT
Those are really cute. I love the peach one. You sure are talented.
THE REVEREND CRIPES Dec 20, 2009, 5:34pm EST
totally love the black and red one...i would totally wear that with my silk teddy
CC Miranda the artrat (or am i?) Dec 20, 2009, 5:48pm EST
that would look fabulous together. ;P
elizabeth e. Dec 20, 2009, 9:05pm EST
What a great way to hock your art! My favorite is the grocery tote...it's just the ethical thing to purchase!
