Temple Bags

bag1Steve Opperman of City of Others has been making one-of-a-kind bags in his LA apartment. Using found, donated or old beat up materials, he calls them Temple. He’s made some beauties, like the one he made for Alex Beh, who, you may recall, sat down with me for a Ten to One in January. Check out Steve’s bags, and check back in a month or two. Steve’s working on something for all plaidout that will be out-of-this-world cool.bag2
