❄️Anakin’s Stain ❄️
Did you know that even our edge stain is handmade! I took a video for a friend to show my mix methods to try- hopefully I look like I know what I’m doing! It also highlights how individual each maker can be- everyone has their own take on a recipe 🤩

We’re delighted to return again this year to @giftedrds with an even BIGGER stand. So many of you want to see what we can make and create first hand- well then this is your time to do it. With show special prices, free shipping and no obligation repair consultations- why not come and have a nosey. We’ll be surrounded by some of the islands best makers (and chatters) around so if you need a days Xmas shopping so call along.

A short(ish) update on where I’ve been…..but TLDR
1) My workload went bananas,
2) I ripped my hand open
3) I lost one of my dogs…..
Things are always evolving and changing- but one thing will always stay that same- always, always hug your dog ❤️

🌟 MMTM- Vision 🌟
I’m sure many of you think my goals involve being on screens (in front or behind) and that I spend my time chasing these opportunities and you couldn’t be farther from the truth. I don’t really care about any fame or prestige- I just want to make stuff and have a happy life. Sure when I get asked to be a part of them I always say yes- spread the word of saddlery and leather at all costs- but at the end of the day I don’t want to be a personality- I wanna be a saddler. Here’s a little snippet of ‘Oul Treasures’ on BBC1 NI (you can catch it on iplayer) where a number of items are restored to former glory and a number of skills and trades are shown through out.

🌟 Making ‘The Moses Basket’ 🌟
What you see vs what you didn’t see- oh man I’ve over 20 hours of video watching me gradually descend into madness- there would have been more but I ran out storage on my phone 😅. Yes there’s a million things I coulda, shoulda, woulda done but here we are! Thankfully even after all this I still really want to learn and improve on those rawhide skills!

🌟Bedside Valet🌟
Talk about catching up! Made for #beta saddlery competition a year(?)ish ago? Sleep health is so important! Featuring a covered clock- stop watching the hours tick buy, a carafe to stay hydrated throughout the night, a jar of nighttime gummies for that extra kick and a mouth guard jar to stop any teeth grinding whilst dreaming.
