Bags That Carry Stories— a legacy lovingly carried forward.
This piece was crafted from the leather briefcases of someone’s late father.
Worn by years of work, held by hands now gone — every detail carries his presence.
Now reimagined into something new, this bag keeps his memory close, every day.

Last week this leather XXL treasurebook found it’s desitination. The father of my dear brother in law had a beautiful portfolio and curriculum during his life, which must be saved in a special place with other special memories. The result is exactly how we had it in mind. It Brinta so much joy and satisfaction to create something beautiful and contribute to the memory lane of beloved ones.

Wat een fijne samenwerking met hart for her Almere! Vandaag hebben we met een heel fijn clubje kerstornamenten gemaakt van, uiteraard, oud leer.
Morgen mogen we weer!

Een keer iets anders dan sporten! Samen gezellig kersthangers maken onder begeleiding van Femke Mostert van lafemmequirit.designs. Soms serieus maar vooral ontspannen en veel gelachen. De mooiste creaties werden gemaakt. Genoten!

Last week my neighbor came to me. ‘Femke, my wife’s birthday is next week and I want to give her something valuable, can you make something from her father’s miter box? A pen holder or something? It has to be a bit rough, because he was a rough man.’

My neighbor’s father passed away. She couldn’t get rid of this miter box yet. That thing, which some people don’t know what it’s for, was an important item in this man’s toolbox that screamed for a ‘purpose’.

Not too long ago I provided someone’s leather chair (also a chair with emotional value) with a ‘new’ piece of leather. I definitely kept the old separated piece.

What a gift that my neighbor had this assignment, because that harness leather was exactly what I needed. That rough leather embodied exactly what was needed to make the miter box a treasure.
Telling stories, that’s what you do with history.

And that is exactly what La Femme Qui Rit does.

Everything has value. As long as you keep your eyes open.
