Anderson Leather Braiding - David has been building a wide variety of leather goods since 1972. Each item is individually and truly handmade - no electricity is used in the construction of purses and handbags, vests, and more. Patterns are made and then laid out and traced, holes are punched one at a time, laces are cut and then the project is braided together. Any sewing used is done by hand. The moccasin cowhide leather is American made and non-toxic.

Kay Klauber Candies - Family created, owned and operated since 1962, Kay Klauber Candies specializes in manufacturing peanut brittle, pecan brittle, chewy pecan pralines, fudge and peanut patties for the retail and wholesale trade. All of our candy is made the old fashion way using hammered copper kettles and wooden stirring paddles. From our rich creamy butter to our locally raised spanish peanuts and rich Colorado River bottom native pecans, only the finest and freshest ingredients are used in our candies. Visit our retail store in historic downtown Columbus, Texas.

Klauber Portraits - Kathryn Klauber creates custom portraits of people in their "native habitats," at home or at work, in public or private, to tell their stories. She often starts with photographs of subjects, either her clients' or her own. Then she combines a contemporary esthetic, exacting technique, and awareness of traditions in portraiture to produce an original drawing by hand, relying on her long experience as studio artist, lecturer in art history, instructor in studio art, and art museum docent. Highly realistic, the resulting portrait tells a human story with precision and spirit. Each work is a completely hand-drawn original, created with polychromatic Prismacolor pencils (made of artist's wax and clay) on archival paper without any computer-generated/digital effects whatsoever.

La Victorian Rose Millinery - My dear friend, Shawn Pigott, embodies the charm and elegance of the Old South and her esquisite hats reflect this in every detail. Each creation is custom made and hand-blocked with the utmost care and attention. She specialize in millinery for Mother-of-the-Bride, Bride (including custom veils), Red Hat Society, Homecoming, Receptions, Teas, Kentucky Derby, Church functions and any other number of special occasions in which a hat may be worn... or just because!
