HANDCRAFTED LEATHER GOODS
Elevated. Empowered. Eco-Fashion.
Find influences from nature, music, Art Deco design and the mountain ranges of Wyoming where maker, Kara Johnson, was raised. She thoughtfully and precisely cuts each piece by hand, using luxe discarded leather remnants paired with high quality metals. The result is distinctive exuberance that Dust & Sunshine is known for.
Upcycled Jewelry
Our eco-conscious mission permeates every decision at Dust & Sunshine. Breathing new life into leather that was bound for the landfill is what we do. Salvaging remnants from other leather workers, discontinued interior design swatches, and discarded horse tack. Utilizing scraps means access to a wide variety of textures, colors, and metallics that are then handmade into fanciful, boho-chic, one-of-a-kind pieces.
“An honest tune with a lingering lead has taken me this far.”
— Driving Song
