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.

I never saw a hip bag before, but it is a cool idea. How did you line the bag, with fabric or leather?

The bag looks good, so do the cuffs!

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.
