We have a booth!

We Have a Booth ! Finally after years of looking and some procrastination, we got a booth at Madison's newest (and best) Flea Market! Sir Fleamore says, "Head to Madison to Booth L33"!   We are now located in Booth L33 of the Lanier Drive Flea Market. LDFM is Madison's newest Flea Market and is located at 2112 Lanier Drive in Madison, IN. We feel very lucky to have gotten in as one of LDFM's original vendors. This Market is not just some old building repurposed.  LDFM was built as a Flea Market from the ground up and is arguably the best market of this type you will find in Southern Indiana. With 113 unique vendors and several display walls, you are sure to find something here! Obviously my leathercraft is available there along with handcrafted items made by Debby. We also have several curated antiques and oddities for sale in the booth as well. We frequently stop  in and add more items to the collection, so check in often to see what's new!

The new holster was made of much thinner leather. The sewing was terrible. The thread was much t...
