Hey everyone,

Here is the first piece of braiding that I have made money on in a long time. Its actually made from the Tandy Kangaroo lace, and it wasnt too bad. I have since gone to cutting my own lace, I just dont have anything else done to post atm. As always, critiques and advice are welcome.

Thanks for looking,

CW

Cw,

If it's not to much trouble could you please post a pic with your piece on a wrist?

I would like to see how it is intended to be worn.

Thanks in advance. I understand if you cant take a pic. That happens to me all the time. :(

Thanks Again,

Al

Thanks for the compliments, I see all of the flaws in it, but the customer was happy so thats all that matters.

No I cant show pics of it on I delivered it already. I will take pics of the next one....should be done tonight. You basically take the loop of one side and put it over the knot of the opposite side, then repeat. The small 4 bight gaucho knots slide up and keep the loops tight.

I like that, my partner doesn't really like the style, but she doesn't like bulky jewellery really.

I can a few of the gaps in there between laces on the pineapples but the lines are nice and straight and overall I say good job.

Hopefully the customer loved it and will bring you some more potentials too.

Happy braiding.

What colours are the next one?

Doing the right thing is bleeding for the cause.

I like what you did with the buttons as far as flattening them! Do you mind if I use that? I sure like it and have never seen the 3 strand done like that before.

I suspect the minor gaps can't be seen when not enhanced by a close up camera lense. It's amazing to me the flaws that show up on a camera.

The leather looks pretty good too, you must have found a way to deal with the tandy lace!

You are welcome to use whatever you would like from anything I do, because very little is original as I have picked techniques up from other people. Only so many ways to skin a cat.

The next bracelet project will be similar colors but different buttons and a little different style. Hopefully I can unpack all the the rawhide I have in my truck and get it cut down to make a few bosal cores.
