Big news! My new leather riding gloves have finally dropped! This has been another year long project which I’m not complaining about at all. It’s worth it to get the perfect leather and the perfect hardware!

I designed them to be riding gloves, for horse or moto. They feature reinforcements on the side of the index finger and palm. They’re unlined for summer riding and deerskin is naturally strong, stretchy, and breathable. With some conditioning and care these gloves can last a lifetime.

Available now for pre-order!

Ok I’m gonna hit you all with a bit of honesty here. I know I have been mostly inactive on Instagram for the past month and it’s because I’ve been too busy to breathe.

I work in a 100 year old mill building that has my shop in the front and 16 art studios with community work space in the back. About a month ago I was basically given the choice to either take over the whole building or loose my shop and workspace as well as spaces for all the other artists. I decided I had to try to run the whole space. It is deeply important to me that art spaces continue to be available for artists. I would never be doing what I’m doing if it wasn’t for being convinced to join a community and studio space 10 years ago. I made friendships there that have continued to be the strongest in my life. And I was given the opportunity to learn my craft without judgement only encouragement. So for the past two weeks I’ve been trying to scrounge together a studio for these artists and fill spaces with the no money I have (it’s mostly set up for ceramics so I need to find equipment and pottery wheels for teaching classes, but it’s open to all mediums too). Unfortunately my dear friend who moved out, who set up and ran all the studios, took everything out and also left on sour terms. That’s been really hard for me to understand and take. I feel totally heart broken that he doesn’t want to be friends anymore. I considered him like a big brother. These past few weeks have been the most stressful time in my life. My body has shown stress responses I didn’t even know were a thing (like all of my finger tips peeling?).
Luckily all the artists remaining in the studio have been incredible, they’ve been supportive and understanding and excited for the future. We all see the potential in this space. I want to create a space that is comfortable for everyone to be in, where people want to be. Where we can have events and workshops and gatherings. I want to create a space people are inspired by. And everyone wants community. Continued in comments....

Still freaking out over getting that pattern lined up! 🙌🏼💙 also all these cute succulents from are available at 🌱
