I make these leather wallets by hand and sew them by hand. They are my own unique design. They have slots inside for your credit cards. Plenty of room for cash or even a cell phone… If there is a certain color that you're looking for I can send you samples photo of my leather.

For Cufflinks ProjectThis is the first time that I used the custom made website and it was a fantastic experience. The cuff links that Maria made are gorgeous and it was such an easy, simple experience. What a joy to support independent artists !
Frank Ramos
For Frank's BraceletMaria Varnalis is an outstanding artist. I needed a duplicate 'VI hook bracelet' made as a gift for my girlfriend at the time. Maria was incredibly reasonable with the price and budget. Constant communication throughout the whole process. She made me feel comfortable enough to send my bracelet as a reference.The final project was perfectly priced, arrived early and crafted beautifully. I don't think anyone else could have done a better job.
(I didn't end up with the girl, but I'm sure the next worthy one, will love it :) )
Thanks again for everything. Very professional, highly recommended.

For Necklace gold ProjectI saw the movie Last Vegas and loved a necklace that one of the actresses in the movie wore. I googled it and searched everywhere but couldn't find anything satisfactory. Then I discovered custom made and within 24 hrs after I submitted the project idea , Maria contacted me and it couldn't have been easier. I sent her a pic from the movie and she gave me multiple ideas and options. I couldn't be happier with the final product. Thanks Maria !!

For Gold Q pendant ProjectVery happy with the final product. Maria worked with me very closely, carefully explaining each individual step of the process and fielding my numerous questions. The final product was exactly what she promised, and excellent for the money spent. The whole process was painless. Highly recommended!
