Sky Path Design

Sky Path Design Designer original leather and tapestry handbags and accessories handmade in the beautiful and still Lots and lots. And lots . Or a Park Ranger.

Using my own Name-Pat Halpen-for my business name-I have made lots and lots of leather purses over the years. The whole time i was doing that, I wanted to be an Impressionist Artist. How to make (which one??)happen? Seemed like a good idea to just keep making purses. Eventually I realized I could satisfy the Park Ranger urge by living way out in the country. And I could satisfy the Impressionist A

rtist urge by adding lots of color and texture to my purses. Each one could become a unique little work of Art. So the -mostly leather-purses and accessories you'll see here and in my Etsy Shop come with the energy of the wild nature that surrounds my hilltop studio. And they are completely unique Designer Originals-no one else makes anything like them. And I gave my new work a new business name:Sky Path Design. Remember that I have made lots and lots of purses-so even tho they are little works of Art, they are made to be practical and functional for everyday use. Hope you will find one or two that you can't live without! And if you don't see one you like today,keep looking-colors and styles change constantly.

When I looked out the window I said WHAT ARE THOSE! Two Tom Turkeys trying to get a girl🤣She keeps walking away. They keep fanning their feathers for her. If they come up closer I’ll try for better pics!

If they were eating in my flower bed I would be banging on the window not taking their pictures!

Just today I came across one of the first Medicine Bags I made…back in 1994! It was pretty beat looking-it went into many many Sweat Lodges with me! Only Sweat Lodges run by Native Elders,by the way….I hung my old pouch out in a tree. The Spirits will eat it eventually.
Here’s a newly made version with a bit of Turquoise and a Handcarved Bear. You can see it in my Etsy Shop “SkyPathDesign”.

Fresh Tapestry Bag-just made today! The fabrics are “Finds”from my local Upholstery Shop.Sometimes I get lucky and find 2 fabrics that go together perfectly on the same visit. These are Classic Colors and the Fabrics are Gorgeous. I was able to get 4 Bags out of this combo….so they won’t be available forever! Check out my Etsy Shop: SkyPathDesign to find them.

SHORT Chandelier Earrings. Dangly and Spangly but not too long-just right for Everyday Wear! And why not wear Intense Metallic Jewel Colors Everyday? No one (who matters)says you have to be boring…And why wear plain old earrings when you can have unique Metallic Leather in Peacock Blues? Just posted in my Etsy Shop: SkyPathDesign.

I LOVE a Snow Day. I can stay home and MAKE STUFF all day long whilst watching the snow fall. So cozy.And I don’t have to feel like I should be doing something else because MAKING STUFF is my Business ,my Job and my Life! (check out my Etsy Shop “SkyPathDesign”)
If you don’t like snow,you should get a dam Hobby. Then you will appreciate the snow time to do what you enjoy doing!

The snow has thawed on the south lawn where sunlight radiates off the house making a not-very-nutritious-feeding lot for my four-legged neighbors.
And my gray kitty has not set foot out the door since the beginning of November.🤣Delicate little fluff,she is!
