Sooooo Creative!”

This wristlet is sooo creative and wonderfully made. You can tell the talent that went into the making of it by looking closely at the stitching and intricacy of the details. Loved it enough to give it to my daughter as a gift!

I love this wallet/purse”

Sadly, my first wallet which was almost identical to this one was stolen....I think I was more upset about losing my cherished wallet than I was about the cards, license, and cash in it. I was so happy to see that I could replace it! My original was at least 5 years old and had held up very well. Its unusual and very functional. Great craftsmanship!
