Welcome to Kerry’s Custom Leather! My name is Kerry Phipps and I am the lead artist for Kerry’s Custom Leather. I am from a family of custom leather crafters who have been producing the finest quality, custom designed, hand tooled, and completely handmade custom leather products since the early 1950′s. Everything we create is custom designed to your exact specifications. Once we understand your order, we hand cut the leather from the hide, hand tool, hand dye, and hand sew your order, there is never a machine involved in the creation of your hand tooled leather items. Every item is handmade in the Midwest USA by our master artisans. We strive to create the perfect gift or product for you, got a significant other who is hard to buy for, how about a custom daytimer which screams it’s mine. Since each of our products is hand tooled, hand carved, and hand sewn for each client, we have included samples of our work in these pages to show the quality, but if you dont see what you want don’t hesitate top call or write an email, I am sure we can help. Since all of our work is custom just for you, and of the finest handmade quality, our work is not inexpensive, instead, it is designed to last 5-10 times longer than the less expensive substitutes. So if you are looking for the highest quality handmade leather products available send us an email.

For Custom Leather Bible Cover

I just received it. The USPS is terribly slow. Kerry is ver nice to work with. Her concerns for the finished produce to work, in my case, was very much appreciated. I believe the cover is going to work just fine and looks great. A little bending and it is almost broken in. Thank you, Wyatt.
