Custom Work with your Hide or Needlepoint Canvas!

Bespoke Creations: Crafting Legacy from Your Story

At SouthLife, we believe the finest pieces begin with a story. There’s a beauty in the materials that carry meaning—whether it’s the alligator you harvested, the deer hide from a family hunt, or a piece of exotic leather collected on your travels. We honor that story through craftsmanship, transforming your personally sourced alligator, deer, cow, rattlesnake, or other exotic hide into a one-of-a-kind work of art. From elegant handbags and timeless wallets to heirloom-quality accessories, every custom creation is thoughtfully designed and meticulously crafted by hand in our Thomasville workshop.

Our bespoke services extend beyond leather. For those who wish to incorporate a personal touch of artistry, we specialize in transforming needlepoint canvases into refined, functional heirlooms. Whether set into a handbag, a decorative pillow, or an accent piece such as a belt or luggage tag, your needlepoint becomes the centerpiece of a design that is as individual as you are. Each creation is a harmonious blend of your craftsmanship and ours—luxury infused with meaning, made to be treasured for generations.

We’ll work with you every step of the way—from design consultation to final stitch—creating something timeless, personal, and proudly made by hand that you can pass down for generations.

If you’re ready to start your custom piece, Give us a call at 229-220-7686 to make an appointment or email us at info@southlifesupplyco.com. We’d love to help bring your hide’s story to life.




***All alligator hides must be professionally tanned prior to production, and we strongly recommend working with our trusted partners at American Tanning & Leather LLC, for alligator, one of the country’s premier exotic leather tanneries. Located right here in Georgia, American Tanning delivers the quality and craftsmanship needed to ensure your hide is beautifully preserved and ready for production.
