Oh - that is really cool. I have been contemplating doing something like this...also contemplating distressing a tote, but have not found the right one to practice on yet!
Portland Leather Goods and all their goodies. Anyone else a fan?

I have just started getting into rehabbing leather bags, and am very interested in learning more about it. Reading as much as I can, and did try dunking a vintage Coach that seemed to work pretty well.Np, hope it was helpful! I am in the process of sorting through some of my vintage as well, seems I had hidden a pile of neglected rehabs from myself
Yayyy, I’m so glad you got one!! Hope you love it
Where do you divest the ones you decide to let go?

It is very addicting! It’s amazing what a dunk and some conditioner will do, glad yours turned out well! I’ve done both eBay and Poshmark, both have their pros and cons. Posh I’ve found to be simpler in some ways.
Love that combo!! That strap might look great with my papaya mini...what is it called?

I actually bought it to go with as many of my bags as possible.
They are under a pound and a half. I am not able to carry anything to heavy.
The color is pretty. I adore all your other goodies too. If you don’t Love it I bet a zipped tote in Kiwi would sell quickly for a good amount in the FB group.
Thanks. If it had been up to me, I would have gone with a more neutral (brown) color, but I actually wear a lot of green and think this will get good use. I didn't even know Portland Leather Goods made a tote in this color. To be fair, I have more than enough brown bags already. I like the accessories too - all except the giant tassel, which isn't really my thing, but might be a fun accent on my beach bag. This was overall a good experience. I might even ask for another mystery tote for my birthday or Christmas.
I have been wearing my canyon bags for a few days. It is the most worry free bag I have ever owned. I think because it was not perfect when I received it ,so I don't worry about it. It was premium and is pretty but due to the distressed look it makes it so easy to wear.
