Positive Leathers

I started working with leather in the early 90’s. I learned how to create leather clothing and accessories for reenactment groups when I joined one. It was a lot of fun and very educational, as to how the leather was able to be shaped and dyed to your needs. I also met my lovely wife Wendy when I joined the group. Everything was going great and then life throws you an opportunity and you take it.

I cut my long ponytail, put on a suit and moved from South Florida to Snellville, Georgia to work for a small technology company that quickly grew. I had a great time there and learned a lot about small businesses and how they grow. I had worked with Fortune 500 companies before but to see the inner workings of a 20+ employee company, see and help it grow to over 150 in only a few years was exciting. However I was missing my family in South Florida, when Wendy and I started our own family we decided to move back to Florida to be closer to the family. I jumped back into working with small companies by doing sales and some sales training. I really like to share knowledge especially in a positive way. Being in Sales you have to be positive. You have to believe in your product and you have to believe in yourself. I believe a positive attitude is very important in life. It helps you through the rough patches.

A few months ago I was creating a little trinket out of leather for my cell phone and I thought of how much I missed creating things with my hands. I looked around and saw that there was still a huge demand for fine crafted leather products that are made here in the good old U.S.A. I pulled out my old tools, upgrade a few of them and began to work on sample items that I want to offer. I was thinking of what to call this new venture and because I believe so much in a good Positive Attitude I liked the idea of providing Positive Leathers.

So there is my story and I am sticking to it. Now it is up to you, visit my shop and make me go to work.

Thanks for visiting and have a POSITIVE DAY!
