About


I started leather working in 2017 when I made a collar and leash for my dog, Murphy. I was hooked. I love creating things that people would use with my own hands. I started making other things, like fly fishing gear, wallets, tote bags, purses and more. I started a small Etsy store to pay for materials and named it Bird Dog Leather after the dog that helped start it all. 

Eventually I started a new hobby: DnD and tabletop gaming. My leatherwork shifted to dice bags, notebook covers and trays.

The things I love most about leatherwork are making things I use everyday, the process of constantly striving to improve, and the great community of other leather crafters.

If you want to see what I'm working on and how it's made, you can follow my shop on instagram.
