Custom Leather Masterpieces! Review & Giveaway!

LovejoyCreations is a "husband and wife team who make custom, hand tooled leather purses, clutches, wallets, belts and scrapbook albums." And may I say, they are good! The talented Brenda sent me a lovely hand tooled "Owl Family" pouch to review for her. The craftsmanship in this product is simply amazing. And anything but simple! The detail in the leaves, acorns, and branches is astonishing and takes you back to a place where things are peaceful and serene. I really love this item.





A little background from their site:

"We are a husband and wife team who make custom, hand tooled leather purses, clutches, wallets, belts and scrapbook albums. We also do other items, just ask!

Brenda is a native Arizonan, and let me tell you they are rare in these parts. Ever since she can remember she has been creative. She drew on anything she could get her hands on. Horses were her absolute obsession.

John is a very talented songwriter. He also enjoys drawing old trucks and cartoon characters."






When I first visited LovejoyCreations website, it was the Tree Of Life wallet that caught my attention. I love anything with the Tree of Life. I think it is a beautiful symbol. After browsing some more, I found an Owl Key chain!!! And if you know me, you know I love owls! When I contacted Brenda about doing this, I had mentioned the owl key chain, seeing as it is a STEAL at $8.50, and was very surprised when she offered to make me a pouch instead! Surprised, and delighted! I was in the market for a new wallet, so what better timing?


The sizing is perfect, I can put my cash, cards, ID, and change in here, toss it in the diaper bag (as if I use a purse anymore... yeesh) and I am ready to go! One of the best things I love about this item: the quality. This leather is REALLY meant to last. And that is good, because my 6 month old teething daughter seems to like it as well! Though I manage to weasel it away from her, it's good to know it can stand up to her!





They have some really beautifully branded wallets, clutches, and belts as well. Here are some of my favorite things from their Etsy shop:

  13. The most signifiсant іssuеs I've with abx procedure with strep are: one. Docs usually give without culturing 2. Abx are held hostage by docs wanting to make a buck. My family does not have insurance, so when we now have sore throats with low to no grade fever, we just have to wait it out. I are unable to afford $120 per spouse and children member to be examined. There really should be OTC tests after which you can, meds could be released. I won't bе аble to tell you how quite
    a few peгiods ωe haνe beеn within a dοc offіcе for about 10 min examinаtiοn afteг whiсh you can left ωіth
    a $300 bill for thгee peгsons. It сan be οutrageοuѕ.
