Ok, how great is this...an international company, Global Upholstery who makes most of the office furniture we buy worldwide is off-loading their large remnants to our little cottage industry company. We're always looking for eco-conscious donors to join our current roster Robert Allen Fabrics, Ethan Allen Furniture & Taylor Robyn Originals who all believe in passing on great sample fabric and off-cuts to us to divert the landfill. Once again we've hit the jackpot when we got a call from the manager of Global's Toronto plant back in December '07. We met this January and are astounded by the amount of fabric we now have at our disposal to turn into our handbags & totes. Cool vinyls, industrial strength upholstery weights that lend themselves to durable, long lasting products. The blend of all these company's fabrics are beautiful and our retail prices are obscenely affordable because the savings are passed on to the customer. It's win/win/win down the line.... the environment, our eco-donors, our Canadian business and finally YOU! Enjoy our cool new offerings as they launch in our almost 50 stores across Canada 4 e-tailers and our own webstore this spring.
