Little design play with my Fireweed wallet. This has 4 pockets. Two smaller exterior ones and two larger inside. The marbled intense blue and marbled color 8 combo are killer. This guy is available and ready to ship. DM if interested. #shell #shellcordovan #horweenshellcordovan #marbledshellcordovan #shellcordovanwallet #minimalistwallet #edc #everydaycarry #goldenhourphotography #leather #leatherwallet #leathergoods #smallleathergoods

Not really leather related and more of a personal post (outside of my cool king cobra boots) but man has it been a crazy past two weeks! I finally got to celebrate getting married to my amazing partner with my friends and family. It was the best day a anyone could ask for. Thank you to all that have been patient with response times and custom orders. Hive and Hide would be nothing without you and like always thank you for the continued support! #justmarried #covidwedding #partnersincrime #married #marriedlife #personalpost #love #perfectday #partytime #excellent #kingcobra #leatherboots

Hi guys! It’s been a really long time since I’ve shown my face around here. My name is Amanda and I am the one person crew behind Hive and Hide Leather Goods. Being a maker in this community has been such a rewarding experience. I started out in 2018 teaching myself how to make small leather goods as a hobby via YouTube videos and reaching out to other makers to learn techniques. Since then Hive and Hide has turned into a nice little side business and I hope it never stops growing. This is what I want to be doing for the rest of my life and it fulfills me. If any makers ever need help or have questions I hope you don’t hesitate to reach out! It’s all about community. Outside of leather work I am an avid reader (books and comics), I love horror movies, I’m a dog mom, plant tender, and have a pretty killer husband that supports all of my endeavors. I am always open for custom work and you can even checkout my stuff in person @chicagomakerspopupshop in Bucktown. Thank you for your continued support for Hive and Hide! #maker #ladymaker #leatherwork #leatherworker #leathercraft #leather #leather #makermade #madebyhand #madetolast #chicagomaker #makercommunity #makersgonnamake #makersofinstagram #makersmovement

Auction is live! I will run this until 11pm CST on June 30th. Bidding starts at $45 and will increase by increments of $5. All proceeds will go to @center_on_halsted. “Center on Halsted is the Midwest's most comprehensive community center dedicated to advancing community and securing the health and well-being of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ) people of Chicagoland. More than 1,000 community members visit the Center every day, located in the heart of Chicago's Lakeview Neighborhood.” One day I’ll have enough time to release an entire Pride collection, but for now this is my way of giving back to my community and the people I love. I hope that one day everyone gets to live as their authentic self and can find a community that loves them for who they are. Take care of one another and happy pride! #pridemonth #pride #pride2021 #takecare #community #loveoneanother #loveislove #queer #queerpride #supportlocal #supportsmallbusiness #supporteachother

Finally got a shot of the first tote. I needed something that I could stuff my work things and my gym clothes in and it fits EVERYTHING. Also that laptop case I made clips on the inside. I’ll get more shots of the details later but I am very excited to share this. This Foggy Kansas Splenda leather was so fun to work with. #leathertote #leather #leatherbag #leatherhandbag #tote #carryall #leatheraccessories #splendaleather #ghostleather #gymbag #workbag #chicagoscrews #handsewn #handcut #thetanneryrow #tanneryrow #italianleather

It has already been a busy week (and it’s only Tuesday). I have projects getting wrapped up on the bench and can’t wait to get some photos take, but for now....just a detail shot of a project in the works. #leather #leatherbag #leatheraccessories #splendaleather #ghostleather #tanneryrow #details #goldenhour #texture #stitching #handstitched #saddlestitch

Beautiful little tumbled shell cordovan fireweed. Love the texture and this stuff still burnishes like a dream. #shell #shellcordovan #horweenshellcordovan #tumbledshellcordovan #color8 #color8shellcordovan #leather #leatherwallet #edc #everydaycarry
