    something I've wanted to do for ages now is start some leathercrafting, starting with making simple bracelets and accesories like that, but I don't know where to get things to get started. is there anywhere in Galway that does supplies for this?

    Thanks! ;)

    Saoirse Saddlery ballinasloe. Cannot think of the Guys name but he actually makes his own stuff. If anyone can put you on the right track for supplies and tools he can

    Perhaps try Cregal Arts and similar shops? They may not have it but should know of people.
    Check in the market if someone there sells these, perhaps you can get pointers from them?

    Amazon - combined with Parcel Motel's' Belfast address to make postage reasonable.

    There's a guy called Seamus O Callaghan near McDonagh's who is a saddler and supplies leather and leather products.
    Sound man.

    Slightly off topic, but occasionally i'm looking for a leather crafter (tooler) for an occasional craft market because there's a lack of (mens gifts?) this type of craft. PM me if you get off the ground ;)
