Just a little highlight from yesterday at The Artisan Show Staunton Harold Hall. The sun is shining again today so if you’ve not come across yet I can’t think of a better way to spend a Sunday.
Hope to see you later - we’ll be here between 10-4

Just love cutting leather straps! There's something incredibly satisfying about turning a simple piece of leather into beautifully finished tack, all cut by hand and made to last. It's one of those small details that makes every rocking horse feel truly special.
