Christopher Straub didn't win "Project Runway," but he continues to make a name for himself in the fashion world.

On Friday, the Shakopee resident's collection of accessories will debut on ShopNBC. The network will feature Straub with his wallets, handbags and studded cuffs during the 8 to 10 a.m. show and possibly again in the afternoon, if there is anything left. Prices will range from about $31 up to $300.

It's a homecoming of sorts for Straub, who previously worked at the Eden Prairie-based network as a set designer.

"It's a full circle," said Straub. "I'm most excited for Friday. I'll have a national audience for my designs. Some of them are very limited-edition that people will have to move quickly."
