Lessons in Leather ...

in #leatherwork7 years ago

I have taught many people my craft, mostly long ago in the 70's, where I gave lessons in my garage. One of my students went on to open a shop, selling all manner of leather goodies, but that is another story ...

I have this friend/housemate who is so on the same page, when it comes to creativity. She has her very own style and approach but she has risen to the challenge with alacrity. She has a wedding to attend and cash is tight so we put our heads together and she made herself a pair of shoes, slip-on mules, they are as yet unfinished, the edges need to be ground smooth and trimmed and then a heel attached, but see how awesome they are ...

I love the curl on the instep, real fairy touch!

She then made a matching handbag in the same leather, adding a tooled design of the 'Eye of Horus' for protection and some blue glass beads to add some colour!

How magical is all this stuff? Hope you enjoy and I will post pictures of the finished items all polished and glowing in their completeness, next time. Peace & Love & Blessed be.
