Leather craft is a wonderful industry in that it not only supplies us with practical goods, but works of art as well. These photos were taken by members of the Montana Leather Company team at the 2018 and 2019 World Leather Debut in Sheridan, WY. Take a look, and know that even these master crafters had to begin somewhere. Practice and determination are the main ingredients in a master, so get inspired!
