Hi, guys.
I want to share today my Kickstarter project.
http://kck.st/1QVYcmR

I couldn't justify paying thousands of dollars for a handbag. It inspired me to create my own.
It is a hand stitched bag from premium european shrunken calf and goat leather. The design is minimalistic and neutral palette of colors makes it timeless.

For our pledges besides the bag we decide to make card wallets and passport covers from French goat leather and in various colors for as low as $25 for early bird which I think is a steal.

We got funded 33% in the first 2 days. We asked a lot of our friends to pledge $1 and share it on their social media.
Some of backers were following us on instagram and were waiting for us to launch a kickstarter. Thank you good people. ;)
And also a lot of our backers surprisingly came actually from Kickstarter.
I'm right now working on contacting media different blogs and magazines to cover our project.

Please let me know what you think because all opinions matters.
Thank you
Maria

Hi Maria

I'm one of the sites you "reached out" to. BUT....you submitted your site in the wrong section. We have a paid section on our site, but you bypassed it by registering and the submitting. We need actual live products before we'd consider adding it to the site.

If you want us to help you promote, sure - but we'd prefer you do it on the advertising page.

Really nice looking bag. Good work. I think you will have no problem getting funded.
Also, I like how you have included a photo of the leather purchase receipt. That says to me, you are serious about this project and meeting the March shipping/delivery.
