Everything about this before bag makes me smile- I’ll never forget how excited and terrified we were to make this happen for our friend. - - I smile because two years ago, we had no idea we would still be here making pretty little leather things. No business plan, large investor, savings or even a trust fund as a backup plan. - - We had a dream and now here we are living it, working day in and day out to find ways to make this dream come true. Giving it all we got for as many of you as we possibly can. - - What no one told us was that sometimes you have to dig for that smile and realize it’s okay to cry first and then smile because you have no idea the real reason you were crying. - - Looking back at this picture made me realize there is nothing to cry about- I’m human and can only do so much- AND THAT’S OKAY. It’s the little things that we are doing for our friends and customers that are without a doubt something to smile about and be very, very proud of. - - So here I am smiling as I say, I know I’m a terrible business woman (friend, daughter, wife, human) who doesn’t call people back or remember to text you on your birthday but I promise I’m loyal and will always have a smile on my face for you and whatever leather dream you have! - - - #throwbackthursday #louisvuitton #couleecreek #custommadetoorder #welovewhatwedo #friendswitheveryone #longxtradingco #longxlife #nodramallama #boutiquehub #rfwa #paintedfeathers #momsbasement #wherewestarted #tooledleather #justforyou #customcarved #handdrawn (at Mandan, North Dakota) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpFiF9xH_KV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=je9j02659sz3
