Love seeing the stock pile grow. 😍

I put sooo much of my heart into each bag that it is really hard to let them go! 😅

Another one barely off the work bench and it's already been snapped up. Already winging it's way to the Far North.
Got to be quick with these bags folks, they don't tend to hang around long.

This large tote bag went to its home yesterday.

This was commissioned as a special gift, from a favorite saddle and incorporating the browband from their favorite bridle too.
It's such a cool feeling seeing people so excited when they collect their saddles back from me once they have been 'reimagined' into a useful bag or other item that will last for years to come.

Check it out, check it OUT!!
Just look at the Beautiful patina on this beauty.

THIS is the forgotten Bird Pooh covered saddle that was destined for a farmers burn pile.

Measurements:
25cm wide
21.5cm tall
9.5cm deep

Featuring a genuine lamb skin covered top flap.
Underneath this you will find a card holder and then a generous sized interior main pocket that will fit all your necessary items, phone, keys, makeup, spare un**es or whatever else you want to carry with you.

The lovely soft leather shoulder strap is from an old set of reins and can be adjusted perfectly to fit your preference too.

Isn't it incredible how this one turned out!! Photo of the original saddle included at the end.

Now I just need to take some final photos and it will be listed for sale, or alternatively, you could message me if you want to make this beautiful bag your own. What do you think of the lamb skin flap?

Getting in that groove again.
I love that this once discarded saddle is soon going to be ready for a new life as a handbag that will last for years to come.
