I just want to let everyone know that Chi Chi did eventually get back to me as if the three weeks of silence never even happened, and everything seemed to sort of get back on track. They got labels made for the bags and then went right ahead to make the samples. Meanwhile, I did make a slight change in my plan, and decided to downsize the number of sizes from five all the way to one! In order to simplify the process in regards to the kinds of labels that needed to be made, the sizes of shipping materials to order and things like that, I thought it was best to just start with just one type of bag, and then later add on the others.

Chi Chi made the five classic clutches, took some pictures of them, and shipped it right away by fedex. I haven't received the package yet, although it should've been here about two days ago, but I did see the photographs of them through emails from Chi Chi.

Last thing I want to do is jump to conclusions, but I was not all that excited about these pictures. Maybe the quality of photography was poor which made the bags not look that amazing, but as of right now, I have big doubts that the quality of the bags are where I want them to be.

I will post again once I actually have these bags in my hands, but as of right now, it looks like we have to get busy and make these bags ourselves for a while in order to get some out there for Christmas!
