Members Rawhide Posted November 16, 2008 Members Report Posted November 16, 2008 I got a question from Spider asking 'Where's your stuff?', so I decided to post a picture with a couple of things I'm working on. Enjoy. Quote Marlon
Members wildrose Posted November 16, 2008 Members Report Posted November 16, 2008 I'm a sucker for the big cats, but WOW that owl is very nice. I'm working on four 3 ring binders for a customer. First one (this one) is actually done already, but I've not gotten pics of that. It's stained mahogany with the new eco flo paste. Loved it....'til I put leather sheen on top and it took off half the color and made some swirls (knew I just should've used Aussie Wax - managed to fix it though)...then something scratched a light gouge line by the top right of the design! So I've put it away in a box to keep it safe 'til delivery... Quote Holly Moore Wild Rose Creations http://www.wrcleather.com

Members Rawhide Posted November 16, 2008 Author Members Report Posted November 16, 2008 (edited) Thanks for the compliments. I screwed up the legs and feet of the owl with the dye I had, but this wasn't for anyone in particular, I just wanted to see how it was going to look as an applique embossing. The big cat is blind embossed a bit for a little dimension. It will be a notepad cover. I didn't want to get too extreme with the embossing, because it's probably going to be a heavy use item. That binder cover is really nice. I'd love to see the finished piece. Me likes the Aussie Wax. I also like Tan Kote and Leather Balm with Atom Wax.

Members wildrose Posted November 16, 2008 Members Report Posted November 16, 2008 I'll probably post them all at once before I deliver them. I'm most of the way through the second one...have to assemble it, hole punch, and start stitching tomorrow. I had an easier time with the shene this time 'round. Still got some swirling. You're the only other person I've heard from who likes Aussie Wax! I use it almost exclusively. Quote Holly Moore Wild Rose Creations http://www.wrcleather.com
