Thank you for sharing! Enjoyed it and I may reconsider the five year journal now. I like the idea of writing it all in the same place. I also do some short journaling and had been using my techo planner as more of a journaling of the day/ memory keeper. I bought the common planner TN compact version this year - and love the size. Gives me a little more room to write. I want to hear more about these fountain pens. I love fountain pens too and interested to see what you think!!
I discovered KMM&CO several months ago and am obsessed. These bags are absolutely fantastic and I have bought a few. I think the mini travel tote is my favorite, I have it in Autumn harvest and olive cypress and just ordered it in black kodiak. The Autumn Harvest has a hint of burgundy to it and the pullup is fabulous. I also have the new Green Cheaha mini tote. That leather is just awesomely soft and has great pullup. Every bag I have bought from them is absolutely gorgeous. I got my sister the petrol bison mini tote and she loved it. The quality and workmanship is some of the best I have ever seen.
🎉Cat, not only do you put a lot of thought into the leathers, fabrics, zippers and quality hardware that you select for your beautiful bags, you take the time to ensure your bags are well made. Next, you test run each style and size of your bags, even as far as sewing those comfortable and often adjustable straps with details like a tail keeper,included. You take (and make) time to consider the whims and ideas of your customers and do not hesitate to reply to gmails and questions. Shipping the bag, a long distance and even International? Here, you also shine: you wrap the bag in brown paper packaging, tied up with string and carefully placed into a sturdy box.....straight from the Song, My Favourite Things from, The Sound of Music! A note card with your handwritten thoughts plus, an assortment of treats are included as well. Customer Service? Cat, you're excellent!! 🎉
This is a nice modification! I do not like two sets of straps on my bag either. I only like the longer shoulder/crossbody strap and not the smaller tote straps.
I love that you are willing to support and talk about a direct competitor. I just purchased your natural horween Sara bag probably because of this video. I was hesitant to hit buy earlier because I was worried about the strap being too short (I’m round and tall). But I decided to take the chance because…Karma.
Beautiful horween bag! And I LOVE the braided strap, it’s amazing. Also, you were a genius on adding the rivet onto the last hole of the tail like you did. That idea is everything!!!!
Congratulations,Cat! Your Fiance is a very lucky guy! Your purse designs and the leathers you use are very thought out and well made, the quality is top notch, too! Added pluses, are : how knowledgeable, creative, enthusiastic and easy you are to work with!
Did you decide which one to go with? I dipped my toes in with a vacation wristlet with crossbody conversion, now I’m wanting to try one of the cross bodies. Outer stitch looks roomier, but I think the whiskey color would look better on an inner stitch. Not sure if I want to go with the larger one or not.
I watched your last video and was slightly disappointed when you didn’t go into goals. Very excited to watch this one. I have never been a goal setter but it is a priority for me next year and I have the same planner in passport size ordered. It was so helpful to see how someone else used the goals section so thank you so much for sharing.
Love your designs. What is the name of the brown lamb bag? I just love this design and it looks like it would not be heavy to Carry and would be the perfect size. (What are the measurements?)
Thank you so much. I just call my cinch bags, cinch bags. I need a cute name for that design 😅 sizes of all my designs can be found on my website buttonrockleathers.com
From one maker to another, I have to say your designs and craftsmanship have really evolved! I bet with the new strap style and cinch bag strings, you are so happy to have a sewing machine now 😀 Keep at it!!
Cat, I always look forward to your videos. Your designs,refreshing honesty,attention to details and enthusiasm for leathers and all the nuances are bar none! You are absolutely right about your sewn straps vs the bridle straps,too!
Your positivity ,enthusiastic detailed leather and bag descriptions are so refreshing to listen to and watch! Really enjoying your videos! Your bags are truly one of a kind and your carefully chosen leathers plus, wool,canvas and fabric combinations contibute to the unique, one of a kind personality you give to each and every bag you create! The quality of your leathers and work shines! Button Rock Leathers truly Rocks!! Keep up your excellent work!
Your bags are gorgeous but I absolutely love watching your videos where you talk so lovingly about each one ❤️. Super interesting to hear how they are created!
First time viewing. Gotta admit, I heard you say you liked the Wonderland Planner more than I heard you say you liked the Common Planner. Made me wonder why you were changing.
Not at all. I love both for different reasons. I am highly adaptable, but tend to like simplistic. Un-stacked weekends and half year books are big for me. But I'm trying to persuade ppl not to overthink or freak out over something as simple as a planner. Because the common planner is sold out and I know some people are making too much of a big deal about it.
