Becky, Marcelena (Marci), and Rosie |
Custom made gift for famous ex-President |
Hand stitched card holders |
Inspired by the need to NOT lose a passport while on a trip to Europe |
Oh, yeah--did I mention they do hand carving as well |
I am so glad that great craftsmanship is alive and well--stopped in to visit my good friend Marcelena Recatune, owner of Larru Leathers, and had the pleasure of making 2 new friends--Becky Spicer and Rosie Delbosque. Marci is a master with anything leather, and is the go-to person in Dallas for high quality leather tooling. Her and her team can do just about anything custom that includes leather--Check out her work at www.larruleathers.com. Becky Spicer is a custom upholsterer and pattern maker. She, too, works with some of the biggest names in the Dallas design world--her site is www.beckyspicer.com. Rosie Delbosque is also a master pattern maker and clothing designer. She and Marci have collaborated on a line of custom handbags, ties, etc.....And, as for the meaning of the title of this post--I just happened to catch them on their way to, I'm sure, a great Mexican food place...since we do have some of the best in Dallas.
Thanks for the props!
ReplyDeleteTo clarify, I slipcover, but do not upholster...

Becky
You're welcome Becky...sorry for the mix up on wording--we even discussed doing a leather slipcover, didn't we....
