Hi, welcome back everyone. We had a great weekend raising money for the Red Cross downtown at the Raleigh Convention Center. We raised over $300 to support Japan 

relief which was awesome! I am editing pictures to post in the next few days. Today we are discussing custom wallets. The idea for this sprang out of a lunch discussion one day over what  makes the perfect wallet. We all went around the table listing different  things we loved in a wallet. The perfect number of pockets, the right  color, the weight, photos of loved ones, slices of memories

 folded into  each layer. The  interesting thing was at the end, while many people agreed on the  important features for them and many of them overlapped, they weren't  the same. It's often easy to find the right style or the right  fabric/print, but not both. And preferences tended to change based on  what you wanted to use your wallet for.

We  all concluded that the perfect wallet is one that fits a person's needs  and it was why many people spend so much thought on a piece that  ideally lasts them years. 

It was also why over time, a person's perfect  wallet may change. Some similarities emerged, a perfect wallet must have  enough pockets, be lightweight and easily fit in a back pocket, be  durable, and fit the personality of person involved. At the end of the  lunch we all laughed, Matt and I thought this was too fun of an idea not  to make real. After all, we are in the business of making dreams real  everyday. He can print anything on fabric or leather, and I can sew it. Now you can own one.
You can purchase one as a reward on our Kickstarter campaign for $50.00: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lisashay/walking-in-your-dreams
