ladybucket went to Argentina


im not one to post testimonials, but this girl is too much fun and she owns the
mushedclutch. she sent along an email the other day that i felt worthy of posting.

My ladybucket went to Argentina for a couple of weeks. Even though it was semi-business, it managed to enjoy the vineyards of Cafayette and make some senoritas jealous of its strength and capacity combined so artfully with its delicate lines.

Couple of things:
1. Men LOVE the ladybucket. Even caddish, rough miscreants with little regard or taste for a handbag. Many, many male comments.

2. Sorry, Lincoln, your lady friends led you astray. Everyone LOVES the name ladybucket.

the last bit refers to a debate that has been running about the name 'ladybucket'. if you have any comments on the name 'ladybucket' please let me know leather@fiveleft.ca

my new client/sales person sherie

wow, this was fun,

i hear from favourite gifts that someone bought two fiveleft bags, one for herself and one for a relative...cool...

then i get a phone call (while trying to recover from being away for five weeks) from sherie...

we meet at the studio and and instead of taking home one bag, she walks away with five of the best bags i have on hand, including the first ever prototype of the 'new girl' bag, and a ladybucket (carryall) that i made for myself...

here we are (and the bags) before she heads back home.



thanks sharie for not letting 'awkward-just-coming-of-vacation-guy' (me) get in the way of the bags you wanted and helping the people you were picking bags up for...
im sure this adventure is not over...
