I love the way that leather feels and smells. My country roots always come out when I’m around leather and immediately want to grab my flannel shirt and jeans.
Leather is a wonderful material that is exceptional when compared to other fabrics.
- Leather is super strong and doesn’t tear as easily as other fabrics.
- Leather is actually more fire resistant than other fabrics.
- Leather looks great even when it gets old if it is treated properly and still looks wonderful when it is used in a rough and tough environment.
- Leather lasts forever! Well, not literally, but it does last five times longer than fabric.
- Leather retains its shape and doesn’t wrinkle especially when you compare it to something like linen! Yikes!
Leather is made from animal skins from such animals as:
- Cow
- Deer
- Goat
- Ostrich
- Buffalo
- Alligator
- Elk
- Lamb
- Pig
- Equine
- Moose (No! No one can have this kind of leather!)
Enjoy the beautiful leather items!

Hmmmmm…leather,
Hey Gal! I love those leather pictures (except for Halle Berry) She looked like she was fixing to "pop out" LOL! Anyway, I have a thing for Hair doo-dads, and the other flowers.
I also wanted to let everyone know that I started a Discussion called "Coffee Break" in my Community like your Daily Chat. Yeah, I know. I'm copying your idea, but consider it flattery ok? I just figured that since most of my discussions are spiritually directed, a Daily Chat would be good for those who don't really get into those discussions and maybe will even get variety of discussions going. Will it go continuously naturally or do I need to do something to make it continuous? Anyway, Yall come visit me and take a "coffee break"
Cream or Sugar anyone?
God Bless!

I have to rite a reply to this blog! Came over from Blogfrog.
I love leather. Last year I hit pay dirt at Goodwill. I now have ten leather jackets and coats, one an ankle length suede coat by Carol Little, that I got on Senior Day (God forbid I qualify for that discount, but it's cool) for $8.99 less 25%. My Carol Little cost me $30. I had more of a social life last year, working part time and dating. Wore a different leather jacket everywhere I went. Now I sit quitely at home riting my next book. But you've got me jazzed about leather again so I am going to get social and strut my jackets this season. Love your blog! Love your super attitude. Love just riting right!
Love the photo of the saddle! Nothing smells better to me than the smell mix of saddle leather and horse flesh…..ohhh, love that smell!
