Imagine the satisfaction of toting a sophisticated, premium-quality leather bag and saying, “I made this myself.” Or giving a self-stitched leather piece as a truly personal gift. 

Perhaps you're looking at crafts for Mother's Day gifts but your young-at-heart mum is not quite ready to start crochet. Your partner, wife or mum will love making it herself or won't quite believe it when you tell her you made it with love for her. 

J Tanner's shoulder bag is a truly personal birthday, thank you, or Mother's Day gift and was designed to bring classic flair to a modern lifestyle. With an adjustable leather shoulder strap, classic brass metal hardware, one large compartment for storing your goods, and a quick access pouch on the back (perfect as a small cardholder, or for slim documents), this shoulder bag is built for life on the go.

Choose between a luscious brown or go for the purity of the Fora Studios exclusive Natural vegetable-tanned leather option.

The simple, minimal aesthetic of the designs shows off the quality of the vegetable-tanned leather. And your brilliant handiwork, of course.
