Melissa’s creative talent was apparent at a young age and her mother adeptly harnessed this talent by teaching her to design and sew at the age of six. A native of Richland, Washington, Melissa was later drawn to the Wenatchee Valley with a fast pitch scholarship offered by Wenatchee Valley College. After completing her business degree at Eastern Washington University, she returned to the area and began sewing and designing bags as a hobby. When demand for her creations grew, she began selling her products online and doing home parties.
When not designing and sewing bags, Melissa can be found tackling many of the business functions behind Borsa Bella, or on the ice, lending her athletic ability to the Wenatchee Banshee’s ice hockey team. Melissa also dedicates volunteer hours to her son’s classroom and enjoys scrapbooking, making jewelry, quilting and cooking.
I tried out one of her beautiful Go Bags which retail for $38.00. I have been using this a TON. Now that I am carrying a diaper bag I have been using this for my money, cards phone and change. I can easily pull this out when i am making a run without the baby so I don't have to carry the whole big diaper bag.
If you prefer to carry only the necessities while maintaining your sense of style, then the Go Bag is for you. This petite bag serves as the perfect multi-function accessory. Borsa Bella® Go Bags are made with a little extra padding and a cotton fabric interior ensuring its durability is on par with its sense of style. Here are just a few ways you can use it:
Unhook the swivel and attach it to the other side where a D-ring has been artfully added so it can attach to a stroller, belt loop or Borsa Bella® handbag.
Or keep the hook attached to the zipper pull and use it as a petit wristlet.
Another option is to use the adjustable strap it comes with to attach to the bag. Now it’s a purse that can hang on your shoulder or length the strap and sling it across your body to free up your hands.

It has a front zipper area and this is where I have been keeping all of my appointment cards and discount cards.
You have to look thru her store and see all that she has to offer.
