This story is probably only funny to Brian, me, and the other Fibrenew franchisees out there, but I’m telling it anyway.

Brian sent me this Before picture of a small hole in a leather couch.

I thought it was a good idea to put the dime in there to give me an idea of scale, but I was confused by the damage.  I could see the tear, but I wasn’t sure what the outline was around the tear.

So, I said to Brian, “Hey, what’s that outline around the tear?”  He said the owner had put a band-aid over the tear as a temporary fix.  I said, “Oh, that’s kinda weird.”  And he said, “Yeah, but she’s a nurse.”

I LOL’d.  Really struck me as funny.  Maybe she just did it until the bleeding stopped.  Like I said, probably only funny to me and other leather fixers.

He’s the After picture.  Nice fix.  Took me a while to find it.

So, if this happens to you, make your First Aid a call to Hepler Bros!
