The eldest daughter graduated from elementary school this spring. Even though I was like an angel until recently, but it grew up in no time. The school bag that I had been carrying for 6 years seemed to be huge when I was in the first grade, but at the end it was just the right size. Children grow really fast ...
The school bag is no longer used, but I'm reluctant to throw it away as oversized garbage. It was a gift from my parents, but for six years, She continued to walk and use it on rainy days, windy days, hot summer sun, and cold winter sky, so she have a lot of feelings for the bag. My wife said, "Why don't you remodel it into a small school bag?" But honestly, I rejected the small school bag because it has no use other than decorating and is just an obstacle.
It's been a while since I was wondering if I could make a wallet or other miscellaneous goods that I could actually use. At that time, I met Mr. Yuki, a leather craftsman, at Zoom. He make original bags, wallets, key cases, key chains, accessory cases, etc. I was just thinking about replacing the key case, so I bought the key case immediately.

After that, when my wife saw the key case that arrived, she said, "I want it too!", So I visited the workshop directly, chose leather, and ordered a completely original key case. This is a very nice feeling.

When I went to make this, when I asked Mr. Yuki "Can I transform my school bag into a wallet?", I immediately answered "I can do it", so I have a school bag again in Suzuka. To the workshop. Since the leather used for the school bag is used, the color cannot be specified, but the overall design, fasteners, sewing thread color, etc. can be selected, so I was looking forward to the completion after a brief meeting. At that time, my dauter were very satisfied with the experience of making leather ribbons.

And three weeks later, her wallet was sent to me. The box is fixed with a rubber band with a ribbon, and I feel that I am particular about this, although it is a little bit. Here is the wallet that came out with my daughter while being excited.
Oh! Very nice! The color is dark wine red and it is a mature color, so it has a calm atmosphere and a sense of luxury. The fastener is an L-shaped type. I think this is the easiest to use. This type of wallet is also used by me.
Inside the wallet, the pink leather used inside the school bag is colored in places to accentuate it. There is a coin purse with a zipper in the center, 12 card holders, 2 spaces for bills, and 2 free spaces on both sides, which is enough capacity. Very easy to use.
My eldest daughter is still in the first year of junior high school, but if she don't lose it, she can use it for a long time. I decided to put a tile inside to prevent loss. With this, even if you accidentally forget it, you will know where your wallet is.
The school bag that is no longer needed has been transformed into a super-nice wallet. The price is 28,600 yen including tax. Very reasonable considering that it is the only wallet in the world. By the way, a paper pattern is made from a school bag like this and it becomes a wallet.
