Confessions of a Fiber Leaf Bag Maker: How to Love Your Bag (Without Breaking It)

Hi there! I’m the proud creator of your unique fiber leaf bag, and let me say - you’ve got excellent taste. Handmade, sustainable, and elegant. But here’s the thing: just like any relationship, you’ve got to show your bag a little love if you want it to stay as stunning as the day you first met.

As the person who weaved it with my own hands, let me share a few tips to keep your bag looking beautiful.

Rule #1: Don’t Roast It Like a Marshmallow

The sun in Aruba (or wherever you’re flaunting your bag) is glorious. But here’s the thing - the fiber leaf bag doesn’t need a tan. If it gets wet, dry it naturally in the shade. No sunbathing allowed, or it might warp faster than your patience at airport security.

Rule #2: Dust Is Not a Good Look

Your bag is like that one friend who always looks amazing but secretly hates dirt. A quick dusting now and then with a soft brush will keep it looking fresh.

Rule #3: Coffee and Bags Don’t Mix

You might love your morning latte, but your bag doesn’t. If you spill coffee (or anything else) on it, blot it gently with a dry cloth. There's no need to rub it like polishing grandma’s silver; a soft touch is all it needs. Think of it as a diva - it appreciates finesse, not force.

Rule #4: Be Kind When Storing It

When your bag isn’t out making you look fabulous, give it a cozy home. Store it in a soft cotton bag, and make sure it’s somewhere it won’t get squished.

Rule #5: It’s Not a Gym Bag

Please don’t overstuff it. It’s a handcrafted masterpiece, not a bottomless pit.

Final Words of Wisdom

Your fiber leaf bag is more than just a bag. It’s a piece of nature, a little slice of craftsmanship, and a whole lot of love. Take care of it, and it’ll be your loyal companion for years to come. 🌿
