Accessories – Barrie

Brian Wright grew up in Orillia, Ontario. While working at a call centre in his early twenties, he decided to take up a hobby and started practicing chainmail making in his spare time, as a substitute for more intense metal working. When his friends and family started requesting orders, it grew from a hobby into a very small business. After moving to Barrie for a business opportunity, he met his wife, who looks after the logistics of running a business while he thinks of new creations. The business is still too small for either of them to quit their day job, but soon they hope to expand into the craft show market, in addition to selling word-of-mouth and online orders.
