BillinOK Report post Posted March 3, 2010 I didn't know where to post this, so I'll start here. I have started a sort of master list of craftaids, thanks in part to Max in New York. This list is in Microsoft works spreadsheet format. So far there are 460+ craftaids on the list ( 9 pages). The list contains the craftaid #, type of craftaid (billfold, belt, etc), a short description (floral, horse, etc.), and the artist. I know there are many, many more that are not on the list. I would like to have your help in building this list. If you would be interested in the list, or helping build it, PM me and I will send what I have, or send me a list of what you have and I will add it. My goal is to have a complete master list of these. I talked to Tandy Leather in Ft. Worth, and they didn't think a list existed. I have attached a .jpg of one page to show you what it looks like. There are blanks and numbers skipped. Let me know what you think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillB Report post Posted March 6, 2010 BillinOK Although I understand the desire, I am not sure how useful it would be without pictures of the actual design since I tend to look first at the design or art work before I look at who did it or the style. Just my preference. BillB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My ideal list would also include the date along with the pic. Thanks for your thoughts because that gets me thinking about it. Bill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill I think you might try looking in the IILG web site http://iilg.org/ and look for your information there in the members section. If I remember right, there is a section that already has this information in it. Might save yourself some time and effort. Joe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill I think that I need to check these things out before I start typing. I went to the IILG web site and couldn't locate what I said was there. But I do know that someone else has done this, maybe it was Cathy Schim, but I'm not sure. Memory is the first to go. Hope I didn't mislead you too much.

BillinOK Report post Posted March 6, 2010 (edited) Hi Joe, Well I posted on IILG and that was where I got the response from Max at. Maybe I better dig a little before going much further. No, you didn't mislead me. I am just amazed that Tandy didn't have a list. They suggested obtaining some of their old catologs and start from there. That would have taken a while, let alone trying to track down old catologs. I would just like to see a completed list and like Bill said, pictures with the list. I know this will take a while. I'll do some digging at IILG and make sure. I may send Cathy a line and see if there is anything we have missed.

WyomingSlick Report post Posted March 5, 2011 Some other sources for this information would be on eBay (Lots of them sold there) and on the back of the older doodle pages where they advertised them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MAC JD Report post Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) A Facebook Group has started on this topic, the name of the group is "Tandy Craftaid Template Database" https://www.facebook.com/groups/1373586829381487/1374614772612026/?notif_t=like¬if_id=1489255564521288 I too am amazed that Tandy does not have a list.
