Meet Self-Taught Leather Artisan Diane Louise Paul

Diane Louise Paul is a self-taught leather Artisan. A state-juried member of the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen, she has met the League's high craft making standards. Her mastery of the craft, heritage techniques, and workmanship has earned her a spot 11 years in a row as one of the top craftsmen doing pre-Civil War heritage "museum quality" work, as judged by Early American Life Magazine's panel of experts.  Diane's interest in making leather crafts evolved from her love of horses and antiques. 

Diane Louise Paul is from North Hampton, New Hampshire and is listed in Early American Life Magazine’s Traditional American Crafts Directory Listing of artists.  She is a member of the Early American Folk Arts & Facebook group.

The show is over, but we will be back next year

All of the artists and craftsmen from this years show want to thank Rich Vazzano and everyone from The Lounsbury house for making this show a great experience.   See you all next year!

Save the dates!! November 7th ,8th & 9th 2014 we are moving to a new location

Last year our  group of  artists exhibited at three locations in Wilton CT. We have grown in numbers and wanted to find a facility where we could all be under one roof. We are pleased to be moving to Ridgefield, CT,  Ridgefield Community Center,  316 Main Street. just north of Wilton.  This  gives us a lovely setting to exhibit and offer our work for sale. We will continue the tradition of offering our home baked treats on Saturday and Sunday. There will be a preview Friday evening with wine and cheese, benefiting the historic Lounsbury House.
