ShabbyBabyBags opened eight years ago when Owner, Karen Vaughn from Ardmore, Oklahoma
first began with purse designs of patchwork and various upholstery fabrics. One year after running across some scraps of tufted chenille she envisioned a shabby chic diaper bag, a baby shower gift for her niece, Emma.
Satisfied with her creation, she fashioned more and traveled local area craft and trade shows. The business expanded to other baby accessories, she now continues to customize baby designs one item at a time.
Karen says, "my first objective is to construct them well...tenaciously making them long lasting and durable:..
Currently in her eighth year of designing she says she loves every minute, scrap and thread of it.
Making certain each bag will hold up through the tests of time, double, and sometimes triple stitching, the stressed areas of each bag.
Construction:
Most of our items are constructed with new fabrics.
We sometimes use vintage chenilles and carefully examine
the items for wear and thread loss.
Sizes/Dimensions:
Internal Design:
Each bag is made with solid coordinating cotton fabric.
Each bag has three inside pockets constructed with coordinating
cotton fabric and backed with a clear layer of vinyl.
More pockets can be added on opposite side as an option,
as well as vinyl lining for soak-proof /antibacterial resistance.

Vinyl:
A clear layer of vinyl is also sewn on the bottom of each bag and
inside the pockets to protect from dirt and bacteria.
Velcro Header Instructions:
If you have purchased a bag from one of our retail stores,
one side of your bag may have a velcro strip and paper backing.
After embroidery is done:
1. Push lining in all four corners of bag to re-align the interior,
2. Peel velcro backing from top header, gently pressing flat against lining
(being careful not to let velcro touch any vinyl, until straight and smooth).
If you have a mishap, a dap of wd-40 on you finger, will help remove adhesive.
A stain/water repellant spray is used
to make each bag soil and stain resistant.
Washing:
Dry Cleaning is recommended!
The bags without fringe will wash on hand or gentle cycle in the washer.
The fringe does not wash well, so if your unable to take to the cleaners,
soaking, then hand washing is recommended..
Soak in a tub of water using gentle soap (preferably liquid). Spot treat and hang
to dry. Iron on low setting using a press cloth and completely avoid touching the
vinyl areas. (An iron will melt the vinyl)
