mtroyalguy Report post Posted July 17, 2014 The first is a hip bag I made for my boyfriend. There is a strap that snaps on the lower rings and the upper clips can snap on belt loops or a simple length of belt with a ring on either end. It is lined, and the edges are laced to hide the sandwich since I couldn't seem to burnish it enough to make it look good. There are six card slots inside, 3 front/3 back, but they didn't turn out well and I don't think they are really usable. He is also wearing the harness suspenders I made for him, but you can't really see the silhouette tooling I did on them. The cuffs are the first piece/s I have ever sold. They are a custom pair based on the earlier design in my gallery that I made for myself. This time I did line them with some pig skin and turned over the edge at the wrist. I found them interesting to make because I had to just trust my measurements and I couldn't even put them on to make sure things were lining up because his forearms are way smaller than mine.

mtroyalguy Report post Posted July 24, 2014 I lined it with pigskin. I tried to include card slots, since the purpose of the bag is for his ginormous phone when out clubbing, I thought they would be handy. But they didn't work and needed to be surgically removed because they kept catching the phone as it went into the bag. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
