My passion is for anything and everything natural. My first experience with leather came out of the blue. I purchased a simple leather clutch (not well made - not great quality). I loved it! It was the perfect size for the essentials … keys, phone, sunglasses, wallet, done! It was easy to grab and throw in a backpack, a beach bag, a shopping cart or simply under my arm. This clutch became a part of me, it started to patina, it got softer every time I opened and closed it and it smelled wonderful. Strangers would often ask me where I got it because they wanted one for themselves. This simple, beautiful, and useful piece of leather led me to where I am now.
My journey started by learning everything I could about leather and leather working. I was fascinated. The more I learned the more I wanted to learn. I’m so excited to share what I make for you to enjoy in your everyday life. I hope you fall in love with your new piece of leather just like I did.
In addition, I am a wedding planner in Hood River, Oregon. I am married with two teenage daughters. Everything is made by hand for you in my home studio in the middle of a pear and cherry orchard with views of Mt. Hood and Mt. Adams … I am grateful, humbled, and inspired by my surroundings.
