Rockin' Anchor Leather

06/03/2026

☀️June is going to be an VERY busy month for me ... I'll still be doing my best to return msgs in a timely way, but I just cant keep up with the creating, photographing, editing, writing, ordering, drawing & 'farming' right now (just to name a few) so I decided this was the ONE thing I could ease up on for a while....

I know Facebook will punish me for not posting regularly, but I NEED to 🔋 recharge 😌. For me thats spending time with friends both human and fuzzy and staring off into space 😆.

I do have some boot wallets that I'll post soonish I have made a couple of duplicates of the most popular 🐮 ones and I can remake any of these designs as they are engraved.

(It also might take me a month to untangle THIS mess ... THIS is why I use a satin liner in my tail bags, but I got lazy this ONE TIME🤦🏽‍♀️... it'll come out but I had to laugh and share... )

Cheers, Rockin' AL⚓️

🍁Oh Canada!!!! Unboxing orders, restocking the shop and testing some NEW dyes/colors (omg THE COLOURS!!!) I have a video but it'll take a bit to edit it down 🤣 ....
..NOW I'm testing some new 🎨 dyes from Zelikovitz Leathers 🇨🇦 water based, doesnt stain my hands😱, much better for breathing(low VOC), and hasn't clogged my airbursh yet 🤣... AAAAANNND a water based glue so I'm not so damn loopy in the winter when I cant have the door open 🤣🤦🏽‍♀️... 💓

Unrolling some BEAUTIFUL leather from OA Leather Supply 🇨🇦 WHICH IS EXCITING as I have literally *NEVER* had a bad piece of leather from them -not one! ... 🥰
..and last but NOT least - hardware from sewingsupplydepot.com 🇨🇦, genuinely nice people to deal with, quality hardware, & they give a crap 🥰.

There's nothing like having reliable suppliers supporting tiny businesses like mine, it's one less thing to stress about.... 🤦🏽‍♀️ because there's so much to hold together. 😳

Happy thurs•yay!

It's always a good idea to learn your history.... its ALWAYS more than 'its pretty'...

You know how some people collect things like baseball cards? Well, I seem to collect palm conchos. For me, one with a cool design is hard to pass up. I love the tradition behind them, plus they’re a super handy anchor for romel reins when you’re riding in a bridle. By locking the concho in your fist, the tension and length of the reins remain perfectly fixed. This keeps the bit balanced and prevents the reins from shifting while riding.

There’s also some neat history behind them.

The original design was basically a flat, round concho (similar to an old 1800s clothing button) with keepers on both sides to securely attach the reins and romel. When a right-handed rider held the reins, the palm concho rested directly in the left hand. That locked the bridle length in place and left the rider’s right hand completely free to swing a rope, open a gate or whatever.

And when you’re a lefty… it’s all backwards. 😄

That’s part of what I like about old vaquero gear.
A lot of it came from function first. The style and tradition followed later.
