Hey y'all, I'm Jo Maples and I can't tell you how much of a privledge it has been to serve so many wonderful folks. I've always been a little bit of a gypsy with everything in life (besides horses!) and kind of went wherever the wind would blow me, from hobbies to location, nothing ever seemed to keep me tied down very long. My leathercraft journey began with quality... or the lackthereof. We've all heard the age old saying about how "They just don't make them like they used too" and man, is that true! So after a top of the line gift someone had spent a lot of money on for me started to fall apart after about a year of use, I was just mad! And that is literally where the whole thing started. What managed to keep me falling in love with this craft is that it has never once bored me! Every project is unique, there's always something new to try, and there is the neverending pursuit of perfection. 

When I am not creating beautiful leather goods, I am a busy wife to a wonderful man and momma of two ornery boys. We live on a small farm where we raise horses, dairy goats, chickens, and meat rabbits. Our entire family is active in our community and we have commited ourselves to providing a simpler way of life for our boys. My folks moved up here to be with us and in our very small amount of spare time, my dad and I enjoy restoring antique sewing machines (he's who taught me to sew!).

The Crew

God sure knew what he was doing when he blessed me with this beautiful family of mine. Everything I do, I couldn't make work without the world's most supportive husband (Justen). And on the days when I just don't feel quite amazing enough, these two boys remind me to count all my blessings (I count them twice!). Jace is 5 and Jasper is 3, they are both a force of nature!
