WELCOME to our ANCESTRY Project.

Do you have a leather item with strong sentimental value? Is it hanging in your closet, or sitting in storage? Perhaps it's from a time, place, or a part of history that you cherish and need to hold onto. Allow us to help you preserve your most treasured leather item's sentimental worth via our Ancestry Project. We repurpose your item, creating a one-of-a-kind bag, allowing you to carry and share the history and tales behind it with future generations.

THE STORY...A beloved hide.

Another satisfied customer-

My husband and I bought a hide decades ago in South America. He surprised me with a visit with Betsy who created an amazing bag from it. He wanted me to remember the good times, he has since passed. What a great memory.

THE STORY...Cowgirl Boots

Another satisfied customer-

Grandma's cowgirl boots hold so many memories for me. I just couldn't keep them in a box stored in my attic. Together with a complementary leather jacket and horse reins Betsy created two Ancestry Bags; one for my granddaughter and one for me! What an amazing opportunity to let the memories live on, one generation after another.

THE STORY...LOVE jacket & gloves

Leave a comment

Another satisfied customer-

My mom absolutely LOVED this jacket and these gloves.  This black fringe leather jacket was one of her favorites for hitting the town. The gloves were everyday work gloves but I never saw her without a pair. As a tribute to her memory I ordered three (3) Ancestry Bags -one for my sister, one for my niece and one for me.  We now get to carry a piece of one or two of her favorite things and honor her every day.
