I am here for Friends

About Me

Made from vintage textiles such as 1960s Airstream trailer upholstery, 1940s German mattress ticking, and English drapery fabrics, these bags are either one-of-a-kind or incredibly limited edition. By limited edition, we mean an edition of four or less bags, not five hundred. This ensures that Cahooties will not leave a party crying in embarassment because someone else is carrying their handbag.Cahoots believes in high-quality handmade items, in working our fingers to the bone instead of the child workers of Southeast Asian countries, and in providing fabulous vegan handbag alternatives for the animal activists of the world. We believe in combining things that are old fashioned, such as buttons and classic form, with unusual color combinations and textures to turn the heads of handbag enthusiasts of the world. We believe that a handbag has the potential to replace the security blanket of your childhood, and that making you think of your grandmothers couch and apron and tablecloth is the nicest gift we could give you.www.cahootshandbags.com
