About the Maker(s)

Heidi Neff Heidi Neff [
For many years, I have attended game conventions and renaissance faires. At these events, I developed a love of medieval style clothing and accessories. After several years of making costumes and doing leatherwork, I decided it was time to try my hand at Chainmaille. I’ve been addicted ever since. I especially love creating jewelry and finding ways to make household items out of chainmaille. I was born in Germany (Army brat), and have lived in Texas, Arizona, Hawaii, and Indiana, but have always considered myself a Texan. I currently reside in Austin, TX.
