Canvas & Upcycled Leather Bags

After more than 10 years of designing and developing individual upcycled leather bags from outdated leather garments in New Orleans, Sandy relocated to a sunny beach town on the Gulf Coast of Florida and expanded her line to also feature durable canvas beach bags and canvas totes. Clients now enjoy shopping for both small-batch canvas designs as well as a continually rotating boutique collection of original upcycled leather redesigns.
