"I took this pic of the bag this morning on my way to work in SF to show my friend and thought I would share it with you!! Gosh I love this bag!" -Cindy
"Hi, I bought one of your first Bennett bags. I'm still using it and love it so much. Very comfortable to carry even in warmer weather. I happen to love the clip closure just for a little extra security. The bag is wearing beautifully. I'm so happy I was able to get it. It's made so well I don't think I'll ever need a new one!! Thanks again so much for my bag." -Jill
"I have been collecting leather bags for almost 8-9 years now...If I could make my own bag the way I want it, it would be exactly what Heidi would make. I was one of the lucky ones who snagged a Bennett Bucket in Timber when she first launched her website. I am so happy I did because it is everything I had hoped for. Quite honestly, I have been shopping for a bucket style hobo-like bag for awhile now. Nothing seems to meet my expectations...if you are someone who loves leather, loves to squeeze them, hold them, pat them, rub them, stare at them, sniff them, smell them, then look no farther! Heidi's bags are the way to go!" -Sandy
"To be honest, you've ruined me for other leather companies. Nothing else compares to the Bennett bucket." -Laura
"OMGoodness girl u are absolutely amazing!" -Sherry
"She is just gorgeous! This leather is fantastic and the bag is so lightweight! A lifetime bag for me." -Susan
"I am totally in love with my new bag! I can't believe you actually do all the stitching by hand! Incredible! Your craftsmanship is exquisite." -Valerie
"Such a great bag-the Bennett Bucket!
And, Mocha is such a cool leather. Very unique, compared to the many other leather bags I've owned.
Hand stitching is the mark of a true artisan. My mom hand quilted-a lost art. She spent hours and hours hand appliqueing onto her quilts, fingers bleeding and all. One quilt took over a year to complete! True commitment to the craft.
So, big shoutout to Heidi-you have my respect. Your efforts show."-Amanda
"The leather is amazing, the hardware is substantial, and the stitching is amazing. I cannot imagine doing this by hand! The care and effort the family puts into these is evident at all the tiny things you see...how the rivets are done, the tassel included. My first impression is a very good one. I am glad I set an alarm to be ready to snag this bag after a couple failures because they go so quickly. It is worth it to keep trying!" -Debra
"I received my fabulous red Kodiak bucket and she's definitely a beauty. She came in beautiful packaging as well! I definitely think she's a bit of a chameleon on color, depending on the light. So well made and beautifully stitched, Heidi! Just gorgeous." -Amy
"I wanted to say thank you soooo much for my Timber Bennett Bucket Bag! This was my first purchase from you and I am in awe of how beautiful and well made this bag is! I'm in love with the Timber leather too! I can't wait to buy more beauties from you in the future! Thank you sooooo much!" -Eliza
