Leatherwork at Ludlow Medieval Christmas Fayre
tashabear replied to UKRay's topic in Historical Reenactment
We don't have a Christmas event like that, and obviously no castles, but the SCA group north of me has a merchanting event at the end of January called "A Market Day at Birka." It's been going for nearly 20 years now, and I understand it's the largest one-day event in the SCA, drawing nearly 3000 people. It'll be my first event as a merchant -- I have a lot of work to do! -
Looks like three different sizes of basketweave tools to me. I'm sure Leerworker will correct me if I'm wrong.

It's beautiful; you should be very proud!

Canadian bacon isn't.

Wow, nice! I really like it. If I were going to put backgrounding anywhere, I think I'd do inside the mouth and behind the flames of the eyes; it'll give them depth. Can't wait to see it all finished!

Might be from transfer paper...

Go to a fabric store, and ask in the quilting department for circular quilting templates. They come in sizes from 1"-6". You can just draw around them. For a circle larger than that, get a pin, a string, and a Sharpie marker and make a compass. :-D

I bought a domain and have server space at StartLogic.com.

addall.com? half.com?

I can't do it in Word, because I can't overlap the stars with the text box containing the (now HUGE) curved text, and I can't take that stars graphic out of Word and put it into Photoshop. Did you make it in Word, or do you have that graphic in another format?

card stock booklet printing software
tashabear replied to esantoro's topic in Marketing and Advertising
Look for templates. Word2007 has a ton of postcard templates that would probably work. In previous versions, you look under File>Open>Template, I think. Alternately, you could get business cards printed up with the info on both sides. MOO.com does gorgeous laminated cards that I bet would work really well. -
I use the smaller end of this: http://www.tandyleatherfactory.com/product...?number=8039-05 Be sure to sharpen the end you want to use; it's so much easier to cut the leather fibers than to tear them.

Silver dye?
tashabear replied to Wyvern's topic in Dyes, Antiques, Stains, Glues, Waxes, Finishes and Conditioners.
I used gold craft acrylic on several items, including the wallet that I use every day. I don't have any trouble with it rubbing off, and I used Super Sheen on top. I haven't had any call for silver, but I bet it would work the same. (And by craft acrylic, I mean like Plaid Paint, not the good stuff from the fine art department.) -
Does Tandy have a Black Friday sale?
tashabear replied to DavidG's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
That deal on the 3-4 oz tooling sides is choice; I'm definitely getting in on some of that action. -
gold leaf?

I'm such a dope. I have that bookmarked. Thanks! -
gold leaf?

mmmm... looking at a bit of a time crunch here; nearest place I know of to get the real stuff might be Dick Blick in Boston, and that's a journey. I think I'll go with Liquid Leaf till I get to buy some real leaf and experiment. Thanks! -
Have fun!

What finish did you use, and how did it wear? Cool... what did you put it on? -
Oh s@#t!!!

That big spot looks like a fingerprint. -
You can get them in shapes too: http://quiltsuppliesonline.com/index.asp?P...&Category=6 I use quilter's template plastic for shapes I want to use again: http://www.ezquilt.com/products/plastics/singlesheets.htm
