Custom Eco-Friendly Leather Painted Whale Guitar Strap
This custom strap was hand cut from premium eco friendly leather. After finalizing the design with the client, it was then sketched out onto the strap, hand tooled, painted, and finally antiqued and waxed. The paint is completely waterproof and will last all of your guitar playin' days. These straps are very sentimental and are packed full of meaning to love for a life-time and hand down. This particular strap measures 3.25" in width and has an adjustable tail that weaves through the back of the strap. Watch how the strap was made: http://youtu.be/Y0F-MOaSt78

Before starting LK Leather, Linny had earned her B.A. in Music, studied Opera singing in NYC and Germany, worked as a horse Wrangler in Mendocino, CA and successfully rode her horse, Sojourner, 3,700 miles across the country from Los Angeles, California to New Hampshire. It was an 8.5 month ride.
Linny designs and creates art that is highly personal and unique, so that her pieces feel like another form of expression for the chefs and musicians she works with.
She began her business in preparation for her own cross country trek on horseback, and on her journey realized the desire amongst artists and adventurers alike for products that are as expressive as they are functional, and as easy on the eye as they are on the conscience.
LK Leather uses clean, full grain Italian vachetta leather and hand dyes each piece with non-toxic dye to create functional art that is both ethical and beautiful. Every piece is carefully made by hand from start to finish in the New Hampshire White Mountains.

For Leather Bifold Wallet5.0I had the pleasure of working with Linny to make a custom bifold leather wallet. From the beginning there was clear communication between her and I. She kept me posted along her journey of making the wallet, which to me, was key in making what I envisioned for the wallet. She sent me not only posts but picture updates as well. She also heeded any suggestion and or concern I had and addressed them accordingly. The end product was more that I could have expected. The careful design and coloration of the wallet is amazing. I would recommend this maker to anyone out there.

For Skinny Leather Belt5.0Linny was great and she made me a fabulous belt too! After having the worst time trying to find a skinny belt to wear with high waisted dresses, I decided to have one custom made and it's now one of my favorite pieces. Linny was great with communication, she let me pick every aspect of the belt so that it was perfect just for me and delivered a high quality piece.
