Meet the Maker

I started Redneck Fancy Tack out of my love for horses and obsession with horse tack. I live on a hobby farm near Walcott, ND, with my family and my little herd consisting of four horses (Rosie, Scout, Grace and Warden), one donkey (DJ), one big lab mix (Copper) and a ragdoll kitty (Cash). In the Fall of 2022, I resigned from my role as director of a local university to chase my passion full-time.

I began my journey as a small business owner with learning to make mohair tack and then digging into the world of leathercraft. My favorite projects combine mohair with leather and a little laser engraving to boot. My friend Natalie with No Coincidences and I began hosting traveling hat bars back in November 2023. We have met the most amazing people and had a ton of fun along the way. Keep an eye out for future classes, you won't want to miss them!

It has been the most amazing journey so far and I am grateful for the connections I am making. Horse people are simply the best!
