2025 Wrap

The shop is home for the season (although you’ll be able to catch me helping out the one and only Paulo Garbanzo in a special appearance for the end of GA Ren Fest Fall Fling) and it has been one amazing 2025 thanks to all of you!

From the winter fairy ball at Mythicon (yes, I’ll be back in ’26!) all the way through to Delafaire y’all have kept the magic alive for this little leather shop. I can’t wait for next year!

This year isn’t entirely over- if you’re on my list for custom work, I’ll be in the workshop all this and next week. Everyone who currently has an order in should have that order by Thanksgiving, or immediately after. Orders placed in the next week should be finished and ship in time for Christmas, but ONLY if you get those orders in within the next week. Leather takes time and while I’ll certainly work on it as fast as I can, I can’t promise it for Christmas after that point.

Keep an eye on this space for upcoming events, new items, and more over the winter break. The test batch of chain belts sold faster than expected so they will soon be a regular item. I’ll also be expanding the size range for my fantasy armor as I remain committed to the idea that Fantasy is for Everyone.

The holiday season is upon us and I know that, to put it mildly, many of us are not feeling all that festive right now. I’ve been trying to come up with a more polite- or at least professional- way of saying it but honestly, screw the corporations, shop local this season. The reality is that many of us are not cheaper than the corporations, but our quality is unbeatable and we stand by our work in ways that they never can.

I sincerely wish all of you peace, contentment, warmth, and comfort this season, and I’ll see you all in 2026.
