Introduction, Hello Everyone! 😊

Hi everyone! I’m so glad to join the Learn Leather Now community.

I’ve actually been surrounded by this beautiful material my entire life. My parents have been in the leather manufacturing and supply industry for over 25 years, so growing up around the workshops gave me a deep, early appreciation for the craft.

Lately, I've been channeling that lifelong exposure into building my own brand, Bucklayer. While my day-to-day work usually revolves around handling finished leathers and navigating the relationship side of the industry, my real goal here is to dive into the artisan craft. I want to learn more about hands-on leatherworking, connect with fellow makers, and see how you all bring different hides to life. The talent I've seen here so far is truly inspiring!

I’d love to know—what project is currently sitting on your workbench, and what is your absolute favorite type of leather to use?
