so what’s new for 2010? a lot! we hope to reach out to new customers & create more environmental awareness through our product. we hope that you, our fans, will spread the word about who we are & what we do, to more friends & family. this year, we look forward to creating new bags that more people will fall in love with. in addition, we’re excited to take on projects that will help our customers’ vision for the “right bag”, become a reality.

we have some special new projects that we are currently working on right now, so check back with us to see how these custom orders unfold!

so happy new year friends! we look forward to meeting & working with new people. may 2010 bring all of you good fortune & happiness!

peace & love…

stina diane & tami elizabeth
