Hello From Not Texas!

Recommended Posts

Hey Y'all,

I am Michael, owner of a (very) small leather & costume company, Commedia dell'Artsy. We (my wife & I - as I said, small) are located in Brampton, just outside of Toronto, Ontario.

I have been leatherworking since about 2001, and trying to make money at it since about 2003. After all, as many people have pointed out, it is an expensive hobby. Alas, I am not willing to make the jump to doing it full time, so I have to work it around the schedule of my day job with Outerwall (the guys behind Coinstar & Redbox). I got started through my participation of live action role-playing (LARP) games, and as a result most of my focus has been towards medieval/fantasy armour & accessories. I also make fetish/BDSM gear, such as floggers, collars, and cuffs. There is, after all, a remarkable crossover between the two communities.

I found this site in my searches for armour patterns, because adapting existing patterns is so much easier than making them from scratch (usually). I am looking forward to spending far too much time lurking around and soaking up what I can.

Right now, the closest I have to a website is my Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/CommediaDellArtsy

Cheers,

Mike Guest

We're more than happy to welcome our friends from the Great White Empty North!

You might be surprised at the number of Canadians we interface with in Texas - largely because of the oil and gas business. Welcome to Leatherworker!
