Every clutch carries a story…

 
 

Are you the sentimental bride that gets teary-eyed just thinking about walking down the aisle? Do you hold onto a special scarf or stuffed animal once given to you by a loved one? Do you cherish family photos more than anything?

We understand, and when your wedding comes along… it can feel like love, gratitude, and emotions run over like the champagne in a glass at your engagement party.

We want to create something for you that is

as meaningful as it is beautiful.

Our signature “heirloom clutches” are hand-crafted with a piece of your past in mind and fond memories at heart. Made from old materials (your mother’s wedding dress, grandmother’s veil, grandfather’s tie), these clutches are beautiful as they are meaningful. A unique gem that can serve as a nod to the ones you love whether they are in the room or in your heart. Our heirloom clutches hold on to the memories of your most treasured day and carry them as you use it after your wedding and pass it down to your daughter.

Love, Amarie also creates bridesmaid clutches made to coordinate with the bridal party dresses and stunning custom-designed clutches made from non-heirloom fabrics of your choice to coordinate perfectly with your’s. The perfect match if you covet romantic pieces and desire to pass your own legacy on and start a new family tradition.

The details

 

Style Choices


Louise

The Louise, named after Andrea’s mother, is our signature style. It closes with a metal kisslock frame and has an inner pocket and a 2 inch depth which makes it spacious enough for all your wedding day necessities.

Florence

The Florence, named after Andrea’s grandmother, is one of our original styles. It lays flat with rounded edges. It consists of a zipper closure that is adorned with Swarovski crystals with the option of pearls.

Theresa

The Theresa, named after Andrea’s grandmother, is elegant and timeless with a metal kisslock closure and a chain strap that can be cross-body, or shoulder to hip length. The chain can be put inside or detached to go from shoulder bag to clutch.

The process

it’s all in the details

one

Design questionnaires/ consult

We discuss the style, colors, and any design elements that you would like to include in your clutch via email and questionnaires. (Video/call option available upon request). You can have as much say as you’d like or just let me run with my design expertise! At this time, I will send you a proposal, we will finalize the details and I will add you to my design and production calendar. I try to accommodate by wedding or bridal shower due date.

Dress & Material shipping to me

If you are getting an heirloom clutch in which we use family fabrics, when you have all the materials you want to use gathered, you will ship them to me and I will send you a confirmation when it is received and in safe keeping.

Design & construction

I study the fabric’s details, configure multiple layouts and decide which is the most beautiful and best fitting for the delicate fabric. I then strategically cut, remove, manipulate, overlay, and hand-stitch and sew the clutch together. The entire clutch body is made by hand from start to finish! I also add any upgrades, like hand-embroidered wedding date, to the lining at this time.

Wedding ready

Once the design and constriction is complete and I give it a keen look over, I ship the clutch to you via USPS insured priority mail in our gift box with protective dust bag.

  • please note, due to the nature of time and details that go into every design, we can only accept a certain amount of custom orders per month on a first come, first served basis.
