Cottonwood Ranch Designs

Cottonwood Ranch Designs is a small custom leather shop near Ottawa, Ks My start in Leather tooling came about after our daughter left for college and I had extra time on my hands. Samantha had tooled leather in 4-H, I picked up her tools one day and started working with them. I started making items and selling to friends and co-workersr, and decided it was time to make it a business instead of a hobby. Cottonwood Ranch Designs was established in 2005.
