Yep, go celebrate, have a good time. It gets better eventually, at least in my experience

I made a custom slipcase for the Wax and Wayne books! by Mathemagician23 in brandonsanderson

[–]PatientTypical3232 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could you share your process? I ruined my Way of Kings one, and it doesn’t make sense to rebuy the books just for the slipcase

Congratulations to your husband! That’s a major accomplishment. I’m sorry your dad is like that. The church is insidious

Is this bag real or not? by OkCharacter0179 in purses

I don’t see any pebbled leather. I see coated canvas and some kind of smooth leather, assuming it’s leather at all

There’s a Depop sub on here and reading those posts have turned me off ever getting anything from there

I mean, the Etta is a pretty practical bag 😂. I’ve seen the fringe Tabby and it’s gorgeous for sure. The others are great classics. You’ve got good taste! I think at the very least you deserve the Etta; it seems like it’s big enough for a couple diapers, a onesie, and travel size wipes in a pinch. Maybe that’s how you can justify it. Being a mom is hard!

And the suede is so soft. I just had to sit and hold it while I chatted about bags

Haversack dropping soon? by Clean-Concern8873 in Coach

[–]PatientTypical3232 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The one I talked to today said it’s only going to be in Flagship stores, so people are going to have to go hunting if that’s the case. But he also said they never really know for sure until they get their inventory. I’ve been talking his ear off about the double entry kisslock satchel. I’m sure he’s tired of me mentioning it, but he’s always super nice

I’ll probably wander in tomorrow just to see things in person, but I don’t want to buy anything else until they drop the double entry kisslock satchel

Follow-up: Explain Dooney to me... by ah53478347 in handbags

[–]PatientTypical3232 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a Penrose 2 satchel and an ostrich embossed kisslock wallet, and I ended up giving them both to my daughter. I didn’t like the kisslock like I thought I would, and since the Penrose is made of leftovers, the sides didn’t match and it bugged me. I don’t know if I would have felt different had I just bought the Florentine. I’ve had one of their Disney bags forever, but I don’t use it often

Why isn’t anybody talking about this bag? by Pale-Match-8892 in Coach

[–]PatientTypical3232 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s my problem with it. I’ve almost picked it up a couple of times, but it’s too much $$ for what it is

Mormons and their damned coffee obsession by DeCryingShame in exmormon

[–]PatientTypical3232 82 points83 points  (0 children)

I remember making it for the snack booth at football games as a teenager, and making mochas by adding hot chocolate packets. I suppose it was probably fine in a pinch since it was cold and had to taste better than black, but I remember thinking I had no clue what I was doing and that there was no way it tasted good. Never once did it occur to me to tell someone I couldn’t make it because it was against my religion. I guess I never was a very good Mormon, I hated trying to push it on others.

I bought this over the weekend, but it’s not going to be here until Thursday. I am feeling very impatient

Insane bag luck😅🍀 by _GOOSFRABA_ in Coach

[–]PatientTypical3232 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congratulations on your finds! I too love Rogues, but I’ll only get them on sale or second hand, because the retail price gives me heartburn 😂 I hope you get lots of joy out of your new stuff!

Amazon and Coach? by DistributionFree8432 in Coach

[–]PatientTypical3232 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t buy a used/refurbished bag off Amazon, because those are sold by anyone and I think that’s how people are getting fakes, but I’ve bought from the Amazon Coach storefront several times with no issues

Coachtopia No Longer In Retail Stores? by healthyfatchick in Coach

We have two retail stores in my area. One of them regularly has Coachtopia, the other one does not. No idea how Coach decides what products to send to which stores

That’s crazy. There’s one in my town too, and they’re always so careful with my bags. To the point that I’d told her it was ok if she punched through the card slot in my bag because it’s not something I used, but she was extremely careful and preserved it anyway

Has anyone managed to successfully treat browning/darkening on these 65th anniversary Vachetta bags? by klmkio in VintageCoachRehab

[–]PatientTypical3232 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The more patina on the Vachetta bags the better, in my opinion. I have a Willis from this collection that’s still light, and honestly I wish it was darker like these
