Great work. What do you use for liner? Easy to see why others would want one, or more.

WOW! really impressive work Renee. Really like the handles.

I always thought the idea of leather mugs somewhat off putting...now my mind is totally changed.

Did you figure out the process yourself or is there a tutorial somewhere?

I'm also trying to decide if i should get a stamp or the next bit of leather!

Renee, I used a horseshoe stamp twice sideways WHEN I remember, lol. Not that I'm not proud of my things I'm doing but simply forget that step. Your stuff is wonderful and certainly deserves a stamp! Cheryl

Very nicely done Ms. Renee. And yes, by all means, it's time for a maker's mark. Your work deserves it.

You guys are making me feel all warm and cozie (keep it up) LOL. Adam...The very first mug I made was last year for my husband to play with at the renn faires. I did watch a tutorial for that one, but it was all leather. I think I found it on youtube. However, I have changed it up a lot. For instance, I don't make a leather bottom for 2 reasons 1. being I am not so good at sewing on an angle and 2 it has to be perfectly flat to sit right. I have a drill press and a 4" hole saw attachment that I use to cut 4" circles out of wood as my bottom. The handle is pretty heavy so the wooden bottom also helps balance that weight out.
