About me:
My name is Jerry Howard, I am originally from Kansas City. I now live in Cottonwood, Arizona with my teenage son. Out of curiosity I bought a Deluxe Leatherworkers' Kit from Tandy and was hooked! To my surprise I sold several of the pieces out of that kit. As a result I continued my hobby off and on for the next couple of years.

About my work:
I work every day to improve the quality of my creations through continued learning and practice. I guarantee my craftsmanship for life. If, through regular usage and wear, the stitching ever comes apart, the color rubs off onto clothing, or the piece isn't made to your liking, I will repair, replace, or remake your piece for free, for life. I currently make simple things like wallets, belts, cuffs, and the like but am expanding into accessories like purses, backpacks and handbags, book and tablet covers. I will also be attempting a corset soon for a friend, so garments may be in the foreseeable future!
