Happy Canada Day!!

I spent my day golfing in a little tournament with Beth and some of the ladies from her course. I wasn't on Beth's team-unfortunately because Beth's team won. They must have cheated. :) It was very hot on the course and I came home with a migraine. I'm going to write about a few things we received this week and then head to bed. A little nap and I will be feeling much better.

With my shipment of bags came some information
Recycled Leather is produced in a similar way to Recycled Paper
It is made out of Leather Scraps from the wastage of other Leather manufacturing processes. These scraps are ground into a fine pulp, mixed with water and other binding ingredients, and then formed into sheets. The sheets are then mechanically processed for size, colour and texture.
Our Recycled Leather is made from 100% Leather Fibres with no paper, wood or other fillers. This helps to give it the aroma, look and feel of natural leather.
All our products are certified by SGS, have been awarded Green Mark Certification and are free from harmful chemicals. 
We have bags in Fuchsia, Tangerine Orange and Violet. There are iPad cases in these colours as well.

The bags sound totally cool - do they really look & smell like leather?
