Members Eccho Posted February 24, 2014 Members Report Posted February 24, 2014 Terrific looking! I really enjoy the finish on the inside, makes the piece really pop, well done! Quote
Members jessmead Posted February 24, 2014 Author Members Report Posted February 24, 2014 Thanks guys! Quote
Members bwillielv Posted February 25, 2014 Members Report Posted February 25, 2014 That looks great! You are very talented. Quote
Members mrdabeetle Posted February 25, 2014 Members Report Posted February 25, 2014 The only thing that would make this better is if the hardware all matched. You can get the antique brass snap hooks from hardwareelf.com and sometimes on etsy.com and Tandy sells the antique brass rivets in several sizes. Craft shops often have them with scrap-booking stuff. I hate to sound like I'm being mean, but the mismatched finish on the hardware takes away from the impeccable quality of the carving and coloring. Quote
Members jessmead Posted February 25, 2014 Author Members Report Posted February 25, 2014 mrdabeetle: that's not mean at all! I totally agree. I actually made this clutch for an event last Saturday and I didn't have enough time to order proper brass hardware. The beauty of making something yourself is that I figured I would just rip out some of the stitches at a later date a replace the Dee ring. Quote
rawcustom Posted February 26, 2014 Report Posted February 26, 2014 I love the carving. I may have to steal some of that skull design, excellent. Quote
