Review on 👛 5 Yards 10mm x 2mm Genuine Cow Hide Flat Leather Strip by Glory Qin - Real Leather Craft for Jewelry Making and Leather Rush in Brown by Dawn Fischer

I only give this product one star because of the nice color. I received this in a clear ziplock packaging and the color was amazing. This is where all the fun ended. Upon opening the package, the room was filled with a burning musty smell. I use this type of leather for bracelets. I can't sell bracelets that smell like this. I tried everything to get rid of the smell but nothing worked. For my last attempt, I soaked it briefly in alcohol because alcohol kills mold. It also killed that beautiful color. Now I'm left with a moldy, tan piece of leather that I must leave unused. Also, before I even opened the package, I smelled mold while it was still sealed. After opening it was 100 times stronger. Someone should have sniffed it out before sending it. Very dissatisfied. I am sorry
