Keleen Leather Introduces the Best in Distressed!

“Worn Out” was named for its incredibly distinctive look.  It is an extreme pull-up meant to look like it has some miles on it.  What might typically be thought of a flaws is NOT a flaw – marks are what make it look unique and are an amazing characteristic of this leather.  It has warmth & personality.  The pull-up on the leather allows the beauty to flow from the hide.

“Worn Out” is also available as an embossed pattern and is called “Rough Night”.

Making it Easy to Do the Right Thing

Kudos to Reynolds Consumer Products Company; the makers of Reynolds Wrap Aluminum foil for the kitchen. On a recent trip to the grocery store, I found a Reynolds Aluminum Foil product made from 100% recycled aluminum. The quantity was the same and the price was less than the store brand, making it easy to do the right thing! In addition, they utilized water based inks and 100% recycled paperboard for the packaging.
Let’s hope more companies follow this lead, making it economically feasible to choose recycled over virgin materials.
