New shop and studio location!

So I’ve made some big changes in the last year…

First, my work is now available exclusively through Smith & Trade Mercantile!

After my art fairs last summer, I felt like it was time to explore other ways to present my work…less “selling” and less physical labor in unpredictable conditions. Right about that time, I found out that Smith & Trade Mercantile (Stillwater) was opening a new location in Crosby, MN. I knew I needed to apply! Within a few weeks, I dropped off my entire inventory in Crosby. It’s been such a great fit for me! (Bonus: My husband also loves the mountain biking in that area!) Eventually I added inventory at the Stillwater location as well. My work is available in the stores, as well as online through the Smith & Trade website.

Second, my studio has moved!

Over the last couple weeks, I’ve relocated my leather studio to the Smith & Trade store in Stillwater! I have a dedicated studio space upstairs to make my goods. Working right in the store gives me the opportunity to demonstrate and talk with people about the process of leather work. Eventually I’ll offer hands-on opportunities and classes. This is something I’ve been dreaming about for several years!

Please note: I’m currently making some updates to my website to reflect these changes. I will change from a “store” to more of a gallery format. My contact page can always be used to inquire about a specific piece or ask questions about my work. I take a very limited number of custom requests.
