Members Jackattack Posted November 18, 2011 Members Report Posted November 18, 2011 Here is my first attemp at making Belts. I think that the color contrasts came out very well and I was pleasantly surprised and so was my wife when she got her new belt. Quote
Members Charliewz Posted November 18, 2011 Members Report Posted November 18, 2011 Wow! Wish my first belt came out that good. Just finished it today . Now it doesn't look so good. Good work. Charlie Quote
Members Amyhis Posted November 18, 2011 Members Report Posted November 18, 2011 Wow, that's really good for your first one! Love the border! Quote
Members Mactechbri Posted November 19, 2011 Members Report Posted November 19, 2011 That looks really good! What did you do to keep from getting it in the cracks? What kind of dye(s)? Bri Quote
Members Jackattack Posted November 20, 2011 Author Members Report Posted November 20, 2011 That looks really good! What did you do to keep from getting it in the cracks? What kind of dye(s)? Bri I dyed with Eco-Flo Leather Dye and the process was unique in that I used t-shirt material only dampened with the dye. This allowed me to prevent excess dye from pooling in the impressions from stamping, leaving the patterns the natural color. Quote
