Trunk Show: Two Oaks Trading
Al’s Showroom welcomes Two Oaks Trading Bags & Totes!
FRIDAY November 20, 3-8
SATURDAY November 21, 10-3
Handmade in Scandia MN from American waxed canvas, Two Oaks goods are functional, durable and HANDSOME. Katie Faragher makes messenger bags, totes, diaper bags and especially clever lunch sacks that are a pleasure to carry and use.
Katie says, “Waxed canvas, or ‘tin cloth’ is tough wearing and waterproof. Wax fabrics have been widely and successfully used by workers, explorers, and outdoorsmen for many years. Like leather, it develops a certain ‘patina’ with wear and tear. The particular fabric I use is woven here in the US with cotton that has been coated in non-hazardous, environmentally friendly wax in a process perfected in the 1930’s.”
Join us in Center City to meet Katie and see and shop these locally made, quality pieces.
