Hey there! The name's Kaj, but you can also call me BigCat! I started collecting leathercrafting tools back around 2014 after wanting to gain a new hobby that had me working with my hands. Since then, I've had numerous projects and ideas come to mind and I hope to share what I create with you here!

Here at BCDC, handcrafted accessories made with care and quality are my top priority. Not only do I want to make sure you look your best, but that your piece was made for you personally ❤️

Whether it be stylish bracelets, handcrafted journals, intricate collars, cuffs, or even something more than both, BigCatDen Crafts is the place for personal & unique leather goods!

Hey everyone! Hope you've been doing well this year

despite everything

I say this a lot, but with the whole social media shakeup going on this year, I actually plan on getting the gallery back up to date with pieces. There's a year's worth of backlog in collars, journal covers, and now even harnesses burning a hole in my camera's SD card and it's all too obvious that I need to get back to work on clearing that out. I don't know how fast I'm going to work through it all, but it will happen as it has to happen. Hoping to manage around one submission a week as a minimum goal cuz executive disfunction is the true bane of my existence.

Aside from that, wanted to give a quick note about current commission status and the next potential openings! After the current two pieces are complete, I'll be halfway through the custom orders I received from vending at FWA. What an absolutely incredible con, holy hell y'all <3 much love to everyone who stopped by to say hey, check out the wares, and even take some home with them. I can never describe just how much it means to have y'alls' support, it's truly breathtaking. If current speed and progress continues as it is, I should be wrapping up sometime early-mid August and able to open up for commissions either later that month or the very beginning of September. So keep an eye out!

Speaking of FWA, I've got some leftover stock from this years con gauntlet and am looking to hopefully post a few of them up for grabs at some point. This is something that I wanted to do soon after FWA was over, but due to my 3.5yr streak of never catching covid unfortunately ending there.... it caused some serious delays in all departments (I've recovered thankfully and seem to have skirted past major issues, thank the gods. Get vaxxed and keep wearing masks in heavily crowded spaces, y'all, it unfortunately isn't over). At the very least, I'm wanting to get some of the leftover pieces posted for sale, but otherwise will begin starting on rebuilding my stock for next year's con season alongside custom orders.

Anyways, hope you all stay safe, do well, sleep well, and let's make some beautiful leatherwork <3
