The Vermont Teddy Bear Co. will mail a new handbag catalog this fall, DMNews reports. The first The Gift Bag Boutique catalog will go out in late November.
“We are always trying to keep on top of trends and find the latest gift trends out there,” spokesperson Nicole L’Huillier said of the new catalog.
Handbags offer another gift choice for female customers while diversifying the company’s offerings so that sales are less driven by holidays such as Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day.
The 48-page catalog offers more than 80 handbags that are a mix of designer and private labels, as well as 120 accessories such as scarves, wallets and earrings. Prices will range from $39.95 to $300.
