Totes Everywhere

I have put together a few totes that I have worked on recently, I love shades of brown and how they work with just about every outfit. There is nothing like a easy tote that's minimal and sleek. I try to create pieces that are simple and clean and will add to your look. These lovely handmade, one of a kind, recycled leather bags are available at my Etsy shop: www.treefairfax.etsy.com

Sew It Is

Just got this lovely tote in the mail the other day, created by Yokoo who has an amazing shop at www.yokoo.us When she first posted the picture of her new line of tote bags I knew I had to have one. I can't wait to carry this bag around everyday, currently I have it stuffed with recycled leather and it's already in good use! Check out her shop! Happy sewing!

Chocolate Peanut Butter

So, this lovely tote was once a couch. I love to work with recycled leather, lay out the pieces on the floor and let my imagination go to work. The leather I have is so limited and I am unable to mass produce but I think I kind of like it that way. Thankfully I had enough of this peanut butter leather laying around and was able to make the straps. I am in love with the chocolatey brown leather and the richness of it. You can find this one of a kind tote on my Etsy shop at

At Midnight


Went thru a pile of leather pieces and found this great textured black leather I had hidden at the very bottom. Whipped up this little fold over bag and used the extras to make a lovely tiny pouch that is now a necklace. I made the bracelet a few years back from a vintage skirt I bought at the Goodwill. I think all of these lovely pieces work well together.
