The Art of Leatherwork is becoming a thing
of the past...
except for here at New Creation Leathercraft...it is alive and well!
Customized, Personalized, Handcrafted
Quality Leather Goods!
New
Creation Leathercraft Resume
8 Feet Wide plus 4 feet wide awning (12' total width) and 20 Feet long (includes tongue).
Usually
a 10 Foot wide frontage will work,
I just need to be able to back it in or drive through to drop it off.
The outside products/stands can be condensed inward.
Some of the below pics, I had plenty of room to expand.
Pictures below are before the recent remodeling of my shop.
My New Workshop, built from Northern White Cedar, displaying over 1000 buckle along with
Belts,
Wristbands, Wallets, Keyrings, Guitar Straps, Dog Collars, Knives and
Handcrafted Sheaths/Cases and more!
Dear Craft Jury
Committee / Festival Promoter,
I have been making Custom Leather Goods
since 1973, over 40 years of experience. There is no
question if the items are TRULY handmade or not, because
I make them on-site so the customer can see it being
made. I make Custom Handcrafted Belts, Wallets, Guitar
Straps, Dog Collars, Wristbands, Keyrings, Buckles,
Bags, Sheaths and More! Each one is crafted per the
customer’s design or mine.
I have a custom mobile workshop that I
built to display my goods and also make the items while
the customer waits (see above pics). I carry a
very nice selection of quality pocket and hunting
knives. I can make custom sheaths for any or all of
them. In addition to the dozen or so custom
leather items I make, I also carry two non-craft related
items, Novelty Tin Signs and Salt and Pepper Shakers of
various themes. The Tins/shakers fit with the overall
theme of hunting/wildlife/nature. I would consider these
as commercial and not craft items. The buckles and
knives are related to my custom handcrafted
belts/buckles and sheaths/knives and would not be
considered commercial, but a essential part of their
handcrafted counterparts.
I setup at Festivals, Craft Shows,
Rodeos, Fairs, Bluegrass/Music Festivals and more. I
have setup at military bases across the country, Alaska,
Montana, Washington, Kansas, Florida, South and North
Carolina.
My custom built workshop is 8’ wide and
23’ long including the tongue. The back is actually the
front where customers enter and exit. 10’ frontage
space is fine as long as I can drive through or back it
in. I do need electric, but only about 300 watts for
lighting. If electric is not available, I do
have a battery system that can give me power. My
work table is located in the back where customers can
watch their items being made. I also have “unusual
critters” they enjoy looking at, such as an 8 point
gator, a frog band and squirrels reading the paper and
taking a siesta...just to have some fun and offer a
smile or two!
Quality?...My Customers say it best...
My belts got here
Saturday, and I have never seen any thing so beautiful. I found this web
site months ago and debated about ordering. Now I wish I would have done
it sooner. I have never been so happy with anything that I have ordered
before. The price was also a big bonus. I received my belts so fast it
was just unbelievable. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. Thank you for doing such a
good job!! I will definitely will order from you again. Was very
surprised and excited about seeing the belt on the web site . Thank You
so much. Kevin R., MO.
Greg, I just wanted to let
you know, I got those belts, and OH MY GOODNESS, they are
AWESOME!!!!!!!! Words cannot describe the quality and the detail, they
were made to MY order, unique and one of a kind. My husband will be
thrilled! I don't know if I can wait until Valentine's Day or not,
I may just have to give them to him today. My guitar strap is out of
this world, I absolutely LOVE it. You have done the BEST leather work I
have ever seen, it is just spectacular. I WILL absolutely be back to
shop with you again, and I will give your web address to everyone that
sees and wants one of these belts. We will be a walking billboard for
you, you can use this as a testimonial if you would like..... Thanks
again and God bless....-Cissy D. KY
Greg,
I
have
to
take
a
moment
and
let
you
know
how
big
a
success
this
season
was
due
in
large
part
to
the
belt
you
made
for
me!
I
had
a
lot
of
feedback
from
the
parents
on
how
their
children
knew
that
I
was
the
"Real
Santa"
because
of
the
belt
I
wore
(the
little
ones
always
notice
all
of
the
details).
During
the
Story
Tellings
and
Question
and
Answer
times
it
was
always
one
of
the
topics
of
discussion!
Your
work
is
an
essential
part
of
make
the
Santa
experience
authentic!

Hi Greg, I'm pleased to
share with you a photo of me wearing my new belt. I'd like to
say it exceeded my expectations, but to be honest, they were already
extremely high based on the reviews others give you and your incredible
talent. When I look at this picture, what I see is an amazing belt that
really makes the entire suit and overall look. I'm sure I will get positive
comments about it for many years to come. Thanks so much. The belt and bag
were everything I could ask for. Warm regards and many thanks,
Santa Keith Carson
Buckles, Buckles and More Buckles!
I sell a
handpicked selection of “theme” buckles to compliment my
handmade belts. After many request for theme buckles, I
decided to carry them along with custom leather buckles that I do
make (top row of buckles). My customers love to complete their new belt with a matching
theme buckle. I have one of the best selection of buckles you
will ever see, over 1000 buckles. Selling these has not been a problem at other
juried shows I attend. It is like a frame for
a painting. The frame is not made by the artist but compliments and
completes the
artwork. Juried show promoters who have seen my
display/belts/buckles at shows have approved and accepted my goods
on the spot with an invitation to their shows, even waiving jury
fees.
I take pride in my work and also in how it is displayed. I
have a very unique display that people love to experience, touching
the different animal hides, coiled Rattlesnakes/Cobras, a full mounted coyote,
Bobcat, Squirrels and Frogs Jamin, and a rare 8 point Gator!. Its almost impossible to walk by my display and not stop
and take a look. It is something the crowd loves and will remember
about the show for a long time. My work and display would be a memorable,
unique
addition and attraction to your craft show/festival.
