My New Wallet

Isn't it a sad thing when a wallet dies? I've had this wallet for years now and it finally died a couple weeks ago. I had to draw the line when my credit card finally fell through the bottom.

When I met Rawbean we even bonded* over our wallets. We didn't have the same wallet, but they were made by the same company.

Wallets are such a personal item and it's hard to find one that will really work for you. I was dreading the search until I remembered Etsy.

I found this shop right away and instantly fell in love with my new wallet. I put a heart next to it and looked some more but couldn't find anything nearly as nice. Taking that step to the larger style of wallet was a big one for me, but in the end I'm completely in love with my new wallet - check it out!!

*Actually it was more like me exclaiming "Our wallets - they're the same! It must be a sign!"
