Kickin’ It

I was working on these for the CSCL Annual and then to sell in the shop, but I was using a new pattern that turned out to be missing a bunch of instructions so there were some fairly large mistakes in the making.

Of course, the default in this situation is that I keep them [...]

In Progress

Working through my boots. Today was meant to be devoted to painting, but I finished that much faster than I thought I would so I’ve mostly been staring at the pattern for putting this all together and getting confused.

Let’s focus on what I know – stitching the leaves on to the sides of the [...]

Walk a Mile

I have a good reason for not posting yesterday – I was busy making these bad boys…

I started by cutting size 9 patterns into a beautiful cut of tough-as-nails moosehide. Then I spent a nutty amount of time hand-punching 464 separate holes into said hide.

That part was Saturday and the heel of [...]

The Buzz

I had to shuffle things around due to a last-minute addition of Shoot from the Hip/Hide & Cyc to this weekend’s Beehive Summer Craft Fair, so you’re getting a sneak peek at some new leather designs now instead of next week.

This Friday night during Art Crawl and all day Saturday, I will be joining [...]

Dress Your Tresses

Each with its own EXTREME CLOSE-UP.

Headbanded

I’m pretty psyched about these, particularly the feather ones. I mean, I generally like all the stuff I make (that’s why I make it), but if I may pat myself on the back just this once, I would be head over heels with the feather bands if I came across them at Hillside. I’ve been [...]

Leather Leftovers

Please find below some nicer shots of the earrings I posted yesterday, as well as a few new trinkets.

Party in the Park

Don’t you want to kick back under a tree and play guitar with this on?

I thought so. You hippie.
