How It All Started

Some businesses start with a plan. Ours started with a pair of shoes and a purse.

Elliot and Maria are husband and wife from Baltimore, Maryland who traded the East Coast for the mountains and open skies of Colorado Springs.

Drawn to the craftsmanship behind the luxury brands they loved, Elliot began learning the craft from the ground up. The first pieces he made were for Maria. And when people kept stopping her to ask where she got them, something clicked.

Rather than rush to scale, they did what felt right… stayed small, stayed intentional, and focused on the leather goods they could make beautifully by hand. Journals, wallets, bookmarks, keychains- each piece handcrafted with the same care and love that started it all.


Giving Back

Giving back is at the heart of everything we do at Pfarrside Creations.

Last year we supported a different nonprofit every month because we believe businesses thrive when their communities do. This year our giving is focused on the Garden of the Gods Foundation, and it’s personal. The beauty of this place is part of why we planted roots in Colorado Springs. Those iconic red rocks and open skies welcomed us when we arrived, and supporting the foundation that protects them is our way of saying thank you… to this land and to the community that has embraced us so warmly.

When you purchase from Pfarrside Creations, you’re not just getting a handcrafted leather piece. You’re helping us give back to the place we’re proud to call home.
