Good Evening All!!
Everyone has been so wonderful, helpful, and tripping over themselves to help me that I decided that I would make an offer for anyone that wanted it.
I have done this for one other board (my other secret and learning life) and if anyone wants, they can have.
I work for a company that makes custom upholstery for european cars. These are to factory specs.
I have, get all I can lug home ... leather scraps and pieces from hides used in these orders.
We use only quality hides and when the cutting is done for the jobs all scrap gets tossed unless I take it home. And yes I have quite a bit at home and more to add. I am trying to do my part in "using the whole animal". Some pieces are small and some are good sized. I have black, tan, brown, grey, some red, and every now and then some funky green.
If anyone wants scraps or pieces, different colors... I will send.... free of charge a box .... 2-3 day priority. I do not pay for any of the scrap I take home, therefore I charge nothing and love getting it to those that can use it.
Let me know ..... right now I have 3 trash bags full sitting in my very small living room. Kind of like a cow exploded in my living room.
Thank you .... each and everyone ....
Julie
ps ... I use leather to line some small flat baskets I have other stones in - leather is very soft

Hehehe I asked Julie if she could just stick a few small pieces of black leather in a regular envelope for me (to repair a couple small rips in a leather couch). Next thing I knew, I got a flat-rater full of all kinds of leather! Real NICE leather, too!
Thank You, Julie!

Owwww, I can't wait! I love the smell of leather, so I might put it all in a trash bag and tie the bag over my head!

Oh .... and as always ....
Keep an eye on your cats.... they love to hop into the box or bag and settle in ... it is the animal version of catnip to them. ;D

Hmmm, maybe I can use a few pieces and get back in the good graces of my CaliKitty. She has been seriously p*ssed since I adopted two little orphans from the Rescue Ranch. She doesn't care that these little dogs were abandoned and neglected, she just doesn't want them in her house! She seems to forget that she was once abandoned and neglected! llana
