steveb leatherworks: the blather

Warning: rant mode on: so the holidays are coming and the shopping season is revving up into high gear.

Now I know that many of the gifts we get for folks are “must haves – like droopy drawers”, but in the instances where you are buying a discretionary gift – please consider voting with your wallet for the American small business person and hand craftspeople who depend on your vote.

Support craftspeople not because you feel pity for them in their “David & Goliath” battle for your wallets attention in the shopping season,  but because you want to give a high quality, unique, handmade gift, that is made right here in the USA, by an American’s own two hands
Buying unique gifts this way does a lot of good for all involved and you can be assured, at least from me anyway, that you are getting my best effort and that I will work with you to insure you are happy – and most of all, that the recipient of the item I make, will be thrilled.

Screw Walmart and the “made somewhere else” shit we’ve been taught to buy and accept. Support American, support the crafts and support, the talented people that will bust their ass to make sure you are happy, and appreciate the hell out of your support.

ok, that’s that – so anyway……..

 
The Holidays are coming and here is a reasonably priced gift idea
This is a unique, one of a kind belt/key fob.
You can attach wallet chains, key rings or other stuff to it.
It’s a nice and highly stylish change from the “norm”.

The Long Brown One has a one of a kind brass domed skull concho, that you will not see anywhere else, the attachment for the solid brass D-ring is a red latigo leather that has been wet formed and glued/stitched, The Long Brown One is a nice looking accessory for your belt – different enough to be noticed, very useful and cool enough to be distinctive.

I also make knife and tool sheaths from heavy weight vegetable tanned cowhide. I’ve made guitar straps, leashes and wristbands – all with a different look and design as your commonly used to seeing. If you’re looking for something you don’t see, ask. I am always up for a challenge, within reason.

I have happy customers, please take a look:
