the story
BAG CRAP was founded by Amanda Marcuson, a lifelong collector and lover of all things vintage, quirky, and unique. Her love for treasure hunting grew over the years as she spent countless weekends at estate sales, thrift stores, and flea markets in search for unusual and nostalgic items. This fascination with unique finds eventually inspired her to launch BAG CRAP in 2024, a brand dedicated to offering one-of-a-kind, vintage bag charm packs sourced from all over the world, crafted and curated in Dallas, TX.
Marcuson’s eye for style is sharpened by her professional experience in the luxury fashion world, where she worked with some of the best in the business. Her expertise has been honed through roles at Allure Magazine, The RealReal, and Heritage Auctions, where she specialized in luxury handbags and accessories. Drawing from her background in luxury, Marcuson curates BAG CRAP’s collection with a discerning eye for quality and uniqueness. Each charm in the curated collection is a rare find, often only available in limited quantities, or handcrafted and customized by Marcuson herself.
