Switching tracks, from wood to leather.

So as some of you may know, I have moved down to Utah for a year and a half for a mission trip. I had planned to put the business on hold until I got back, but man, I failed at that. One of my problems is that I love making things, however I couldn’t bring my shop with me, or really any more than a few basic tools. So I moved into a new medium that needs a lot less (and smaller) tools: 

Leather! 

 

And since have gotten into making game pouches using leather burning.

 

 

 

 

 

Of course I’ve had a go at other things as well, such as this belt pouch.

 

The other thing I’ve been doing a lot more of is web related stuff.

So check out NoveltyTradesUSA to see everything I’ve got down here!

 

Cheers,

The 49th Annual Cobourg Sidewalk Sale

I had a great time at the Sidewalk Sale in downtown Cobourg this year, and met a lot of really cool people!

My setup!

And a great big thanks goes out to Dave Howard for letting me have his really cool decorative axes and his truly stunning blacksmithed flowers!

Dave Howard’s truly stunning  blacksmithed flowers!

Of course, I made some neat new things for my tables;

 

And at rest.

Spinning…

Some new tops.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some new earrings.

 

Blocks…

Trees…

A few different toys.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And a couple of Swoosh Bag for when the kids are done playing.

Some leather business card sleeves and wood business card displays.

And a few Hat Pins.

I have to say that it was my busiest show yet!

And I hope to see you at my next show 🙂

 

Cheers,

Daynen
