Italian Leather Handbags

We've been working on this for a while but haven't been able to say anything. We started a little company with Tim and Cathy to sell Italian leather hand bags. The companies name is Pelletteria - which means Leather Shop in Italian.

Alisha and Cathy both have purses they got while in Italy and are constantly getting compliments on them. That got us thinking that we should figure out a way to import them and sell them. The plan is to sell them online, at boutiques, have purse parties and to friends and family. We are working with an importer to bring them into the US straight from Italy. These are exactly the same purses and handbags you see in the leather shops in Florence and San Gimignano. These are not the ones you buy on the street from the guys that run away when the police come. These are the real deal.

Here are some pics of our first batch of handbags. The prices vary. So if you want one or have any questions let Alisha know.

A Bunch of Nataly Pics and A Couple of Videos

Visit with the girls and the kids

I headed out to Lake Elmo to get together with the girls from high school. It was a blast. 5 girls and 7 kids. yikes! We even managed to get a photo of all the kids. Crazy times but it was a blast. Lots of playing and running.

Trying to get a picture.

Finally got an ok pic

Besties hang out again.

Here are some random photos I found I thought I'd post.



What do you think Nataly is doing?

Yup, trying to poop.

Baptism

A belated thank you to everyone that was part of Nataly's baptism. Thanks to everyone for braving the weather and coming together for Nataly. A special thanks for those of you that got stuck in our neighborhood and made a day long event out of the baptism.
