Identify Leather Worker in Texas

[LadyElizabeth]

I have no idea what frog, but I remember the cute pirate hat!!  They were at TRF last weekend, but they won't be back I don't think until Roman Bacchanal weekend Nov 8-9th.  They're trying to find a shop on site that might allow them to display their corsets for the season.  Please ignore that statement if it's illegal at TRF since none of us knew one way or the other and so it was simply a discussion until we got more info....

A frog is the piece of a belt that holds a sword or dagger sheath.

I believe a shop keeper can sell other peoples wares, however, I do know that faires are very strict about what you sell in your shop. 

For example, if you are a clothier, you should not be selling mugs or swords or fairy wings.  Unless of course you happen to be the Sword Mug Fairy Wing Clothing shop and you have cleared your merchandise before hand with George or the vendor coordinator. 

Therefore, they should be looking for a corset shop that wouldn't mind adding a third party's merchandise to their inventory.  Most likely for a percentage of the sell.

I was talking to a leather vendor in a tent somewhere.  Sorry, I can't remember the name.  They lost nearly all of their inventory during Ike.  They might be willing/able to since they sold leather goods.

So where was this tent?  Maybe I could stop by there this weekend and check them out.

I just got an email from Staward, life tree leather guy, and he has already bought the white leather for my Middle Earth Corset and said he'll try to finish it before TRF is out!!  How awesome is that?  Anyhow, I thought I'd post his email address in case others wanted to contact him about corsets or frogs or whatever.  My sister brought his business cards this weekend to TRF, but ran out on Sunday...  lifetreeleather@yahoo.com

*note, this is not a shameless plug since I do not in any way work for them, we are simply friends and I love their work and want to see it out at TRF more!!*
