Artist Bio
My name is Michelle Castillo, I am the owner and maker behind Southpaw Leather, located in the beautiful Wood River Valley. I have been crafting quality handmade leather goods for over 4 decades.
My journey began on my 13th birthday when my Dad gave me my first set of leather stamping tools. I’ve been hooked ever since. What started as a gift quickly turned into a lifelong passion.
Artist Statement
I love designing new patterns and creating products that are unique, functional, and built to last. Every piece I make is handcrafted with care, attention to detail, and decades of experience behind it.
