About By Local

By Local was the dream of Ralph and Tamara Hampton. Ralph is a Sabine county native and Tamara a northern transplant.

They have joked for years that their retirement will consist of make stuff and sell it. What else would two craftsmen do? Tamara is a quilter and loves to jump from craft to craft. Ralph has been a full time farrier for 40 years. He looks forward to playing in the forge in his retirement. 

When a storefront opportunity presented itself in the growing town of Hemphill TX. They knew exactly what they needed to do! Not just sell their work, but sell the work of all of the talented craftsmen and artisans of East Texas.

We live in a unique and beautiful place. A place that inspires art and those things that are lost art.
