Hi everybody, I want to introduce myself, I have been reading the forum for some time and finally registered. My name is Marina, I am a graphic designer since 1998 (or I was? Haven't done any graphic design since I got leather), I am a Russian and I live on a sailboat in Guatemala with a little Chi dog named Bonny, who is responsible for everything (she hadn't had a harness, I had to make her one).
I guess I started making leather stuff seriously a few months ago and now I'm into hand stitching and buying tools and all these things. I am enjoying it so much that I just can't stop I sell here locally in my friends' restaurant and I have even sold quite a few items. I have to order everything from the US and you can imagine the shipping rates (for example, when I order from Acadia, the price of the leather doubles when it arrives here). Well, this isn't a reason to stop doing this, right.
Oh and I created my brand, it's my surname - Karlova - just waiting for the stamping iron to be delivered!
I would like to show you some of my work
