Article: Inside the Collections: A Look at Our Hand-Painted Tote Bag Lineup

Collage of hand-painted best-selling tote bags from Dana’s Uncommon Glass featuring stilettos, sunflowers, wine glasses, and girlfriends at the beach.

There’s something magical about finding the right tote bag — one that speaks to your personality, makes a statement, and adds joy to your everyday.

At Dana’s Uncommon Glass, each bag is hand-painted, heart-filled, and designed to be as uncommon as the woman who carries it.

Over the years, my collection has grown to reflect everything from stilettos and sunflowers to beach days and holiday cheer. Today, I’d love to give you a peek behind the paintbrush — and into the heart of each of my collections.

I am a proud owner of a few of Dana’s bag and I am never disappointed. I don’t think you will be either. I do have to tell you that photos do not do these bags justice. Treat yourself, you will be happy you did.
