Story Leather! Review

I received a beautiful product from an online store by the name of Story Leather. This is a company that makes some beautiful leather products such as phone cases and bags and a few other small items. I have never owned anything that is real leather so I am thrilled to be sharing this product with all of you guys today.

 

The first thing that totally caught me off guard is that everything comes in small boxes, which are super well packed. I was honestly a little surprised by this. It's not many companies that take the time to nicely ship things. So it's extremely nice that they take an extra step to make sure that your product will come in perfect condition. Another awesome thing about this company is that they make custom phone cases! If they don't have something you like listed on their webpage, then have no fear. You can design the perfect case for you. Your able to choose which design is best for you, along with the color, and the texture of the leather too. The possibilities are truly endless and that is so awesome. It's not everyday you find a company like this. To be honest I don't think I have ever found one that makes custom cases like these ones.

 

Each product is also wrapped in a piece of super soft fabric to prevent your case from getting damaged as well.

 

 

 

This is the case that was sent to me to try out. I can 100% say I am in love with this case. I have been on the hunt for this wallet style type of case for a pretty long time, and I haven't been able to find the right one for me until now. I think having a wallet style case is super convenient for running into the store or just going shopping with because you don't have to worry about carrying a bunch of things, all you need is your phone and then you are good to go! I have had this case for a few days now and I have been using it everyday. I can not even remember the last time I have been this obsessed with a phone case before, which is really surprising for me. I used this case this past weekend when I went to Disney and let me just it was life changing to say the least. I didn't have to worry about carrying a wallet. Everything was with me and it made going to the park so much easier.

The first thing I have to say about this case is that I am in love with the color of it. There are many color to choose from, and instantly when I seen this color I knew it was the one for me. As you can tell from my blog pink is my favorite color. It's kind of rare to find this perfect bubblegum pink on anything, so when I see stuff in this color I have to have it! lol.

 

Incase you are wondering the model I got is for the iPhone 6 plus. Also is anyone is an owner of an iPhone 6 plus you understand the struggle in finding cases for it. Let alone finding a cute one at that. I am really excited that they carry  case for my model of phone. They offer pretty much cases for all types of models, which is extremely awesome if your having a hard time looking for a case for your phone.

 

I am in love with this design of this case. It truly is perfect for me. It's short and sweet and right to the point. I didn't want a big bulky case for my phone and this one if perfect. It has three card slots, which is the right amount for me. I have carrying a million cards around with me so this makes it super easy to down size a little. Also another hidden feature is that there is money slot behind the cards. It actually took me a few days to find this to be honest with you lol. I love how this is hidden just because if someone were to pick it up, they wouldn't see your cash right away.

 

This case truly fits my phone like a glove. All my buttons are super accessible which is really important and the camera hole lines up perfectly with my phone as well. I know with some cases sometimes they cut outs for the buttons and camera can sometimes just be off, even in the slightest and that always drives me nuts! But that isn't the case with this.

 

 

This case has magnetic closure which makes it super easy to use. It makes this perfect if you only have one free hand as well.

 

Everything about this case is perfect. I am amazed with the quality and detail put into this case. Ever stitch is perfect, there truly isn't any flaws in this case at all. I love the design of the case. I love the color of this case. Is there anything I don't love about this case? Nope I don't think so. If you are on the market for an awesome phone case that is going to last you Story Leather is the place for you to find your match. I highly recommend these case and I can assure you that will be in love with these cases and that's a promise!

JewelsForHope On Etsy! Holiday Gift Guide Review!

 

I received a gorgeous bracelet from a shop on Etsy by the name of Jewels For Hope!

 

 

The bracelet that this shop has sent me to review is absolutely gorgeous! I couldn't find the exact link to the same identical bracelet that they sent me, but I included the link for the closest one. The link below is for the same style, the only thing that is different is the color of the beads. The one I received has almost like a purple and green shine to it, as far as the one listed below it is just plain black. Either way both of these bracelets are gorgeous, and personally I would wear both of them.

Retails:($28.00)

 

 

As you can see from this picture it shines beautifully in the light. At first glance this bracelet just looks like it would be black, but when you take this into the sunshine you will see the true beauty. I love how the colors really pop. It shines with gorgeous shades of pink, purple, and green. I know its hard to see in this picture but it really is gorgeous in person. The actual cord itself is made out of leather which is pretty cool, that makes this pretty durable. I also like how this piece is pretty unisex as well.

 

My favorite thing about this bracelet is the closure on it. It is so simple! It's just a simple button, and button loop, which makes this really easy to put on and take off. I also have a hard time with putting bracelets on and off, but I know for a fact I wont have that problem with this one which is awesome. I love the simplicity of this bracelet. I'm the type of person who likes to stack bracelets on the daily, so this is going to be perfect for me. The color as well also makes this really easy to wear. This will go with pretty much any outfit, its simple but pretty which is pretty hard to find.

 

Overall I'm super impressed with the quality of this bracelet. I think this is going to be a bracelet I will have for a very long time. I will for sure be getting a lot of use out of it and that's for sure!

 

I think these pieces of jewelry would be a great gift for anyone really, they have a huge selection and they all are at great prices as well which is really nice :)

Provincial on Etsy! Interview :)

My name is Nancy Ellis. I'm from North Salem, NY, about 50 miles north of NYC.  I am 64 years old. My shop is Provincial.etsy.com and I named it that because my style tends to be Provincial but I have since evolved a broader range of style that include a more Bohemian, modern look. Artists tend to grow and develop different styles as they learn more. I opened my shop in 2009 and I opened it in Etsy because I love handmade items and I always shopped there.

I am retired and it started as a hobby to keep busy. I have made so many pieces of jewelry and I needed a place to sell them!  I sell comfortable jewelry to wear with all types of clothing looks from jeans to dresses. Some are Victorian inspired, some are modern and Boho. I loved beading and I do lots of leather too. Basically I make what inspires me. I make lots of necklaces, bracelets, and rings using brass filligre pieces I buy in Rhode Island that come from antique molds. Originally, I purchased a beaded ring in a market in Southern France and that started my whole love for making jewelry. It can be very time consuming and therefore not very profitable.

My favorite piece, if I had to choose, is a wrap bracelet made with leather, natural stones and an antique button that is such a well made, durable design.

Retails:($64.99)

In the future, I would like to sell a few things a month.....a comfortable pace to fit my lifestyle. I would like to offer items that I love to make with the same thought as to comfort, durability, and unique style..

I want my customers to know that I will work with them....giving them honest value for their hard earned money and that I feel communication is of the utmost importance. If the customer wants a variation of my product, I will accommodate them and work with them to accomplish that finished product.

In this shop my favorite item has got to be this adorable bow necklace.

I'm a huge fan of bows in general and this piece is adorable. I love how delicate and simple it is. I don't typically go for gold, but in this case I do lol. This would go with a lot of different outfits.
