Get To Know Don

Donald Dodson, Jr.

That’s me. I am a life-long artisan who loves sharing my passion with others. I am most passionate about creating someothing that is not only artistic, interesting an dcreative; but something that has an inherent practical use to the client.

Functional art at its finest.

Quite simply I love making cool, creative stuff that makes people happy!

With decades of experience in the creative sphere I like to bring those skills to everything I do.

In addition to leather working; woodworking, painting, jewelry making and metal-work have all been known to make appearances in my creations. I focus on creating a quality product of which I can be proud. That pride extends to not only WHAT is created but HOW it is made. The creations are hand-made from start to finish with a focus on the details. From tooling and hand-dyeing the leather to stitching the finished product by hand, the focus is on the processes that go into a quality product that will be around for years to come.

Quality is not a product of speed, but of care.
