Heyo! I finally got around to updating the online store. Check it out if you’d like. Or, better yet, take the money you might spend on my work and donate it to your favorite mutual aid group. If you don’t have a favorite mutual aid group, find one. ✌️

There are still some really nice (in my humble opinion) pieces up for grabs at the Holiday Sale. The sale runs through next weekend and is the last chance to scoop a piece from me before the holidaze. ✌️

I’ll have a fresh stack of the Tate Field Notes/passport covers with me this Sunday at the Handmade-Holiday popup at the Knickerbocker/Lahr Atrium. The event runs 3-7 and is all ages on the Atrium side. Hope to see some familiar faces!

Edited to add, the pictured Tates aren’t finished quite yet. Those edges will be beveled, sanded, and burnished in time for Sunday. Don’t want anyone thinking I’m slacking over here.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by the this weekend! I had a blast chatting with y’all and am especially grateful to all the fine folks that showed up with the well-loved BIT pieces they scooped from previous markets. I loved seeing how each piece has evolved over time and am over the moon that so many picked a second, third, and even a fourth piece to take home. I couldn’t keep making these silly little leather things without your continued interest and support. I’m forever grateful. ❤️✌️

PS. If the person who put their marbled cardholder through the wash (second piece in the photos) is reading this, shoot me a DM.

Scooped a Shell cordovan crust from and made attempts to batik and emboss it for some smaller pieces. The results weren’t quite what I was aiming for, but I don’t hate it. Anyways, here’s the first finished piece, paired with some Badalassi Carlo Pueblo. ✌️

Edge binding could have been cleaner and I really wish I included some sort of handle, but the bag is done. Now I just need to decide, leather or cotton webbing, for the strap.
