S3 E4: Our Conversation with Kailey Klein of Magpie West Leather Co. Part 2: Teaching leather craft, dealing with art theft, & how her career has evolved.
The Paintbrush Prairie
02/16/24 • 58 min
This week we had the BEST conversation with western leather maker and artist, Kailey Klein of Magpie West Leather Co. If you haven't heard of Kailey, what are you even doing?! She has made her mark on the western industry in the arena of hand-tooled, beautifully painted leather goods and she is an amazingly talented western artist who captures the authenticity and grit of cowboy culture in the Great Basin and beyond. It was such a treat to talk with Kailey about her background and how she got started in leather work and western art. Kailey is funny and upbeat, and shares her take on motherhood and homesteading with honesty and sincerity. We ended up chatting with Kailey for two hours so we split it into two parts. This episode is part two, and we dive into how teaching leather craft has transformed her life, how she has dealt with serious art theft, and we get to know some fun facts about Kailey!

On this week's episode of Tell Your Story, we sit down with Chelsea Gore of Pasture Petals. Chelsea chatted with us about how she got started with her flower farm, her inspiration, and how she manages her life as both a wife and homeschooling mom and a small business owner. We talk about her upbringing (she was homeschooled herself!) and how being a part of the 4H club influenced her and gave her skills she utilizes in many aspects of her life. We discuss the challenges of being determined go-getters while also trying to take care of our families, and how sometimes our big ideas and dreams take longer to achieve than we want them to. Chelsea was so fun to have on the show and we know you will love this episode!
