Now, on to other things I did in Rome today...
I browsed a leather shop, where the bags, belts, etc. are designed by the daughter and made by her father, right there in the store.
The leather workshop.
Finished products!
Also, I've started a collection of empty cigarette cartons sporting very explicit warnings against smoking. This is something my Disease in History professor did in France throughout the years. According to him, the only thing that effectively decreases cigarette sales is raising the tax on them. I've seen near 5 between today and yesterday.

Smoking kills.
Smoking causes fatal lung carcinogen (cancer).
Smoking when pregnant harms your baby.
Well that is one way to try to deter smoking.........can't be any more blunt in the translations.
ReplyDeleteDoes the leather store do custom bags? Worth looking into.

Yes they do custom bags. One person in the program got one - they'll have it in 10 days! I'm going to try and get a bag in Florence this weekend.
