Meet the Watkins Family
For Jennifer, Bill, and their daughter, Allison, leatherwork may have started as a hobby, but it soon grew into a family business. Tracing their leatherworking journey back to its beginnings in a Tandy class, the family has since sharpened their skills, now creating a variety of professional-grade wares for their shop, Red Pony Leather Goods. While Red Pony sells everything from belts to barrettes, it remains best-known for its one-of-a-kind jewelry that’s as artful as it is expressive.
