Members flerg777 Posted December 18, 2015 Members Report Posted December 18, 2015 Long time lurker, first time member. This forum has been very helpful to me over the past year or so, as I began dabbling in selling some leather goods. I started out wanting to make some leather arm guards for my fledgling archery instruction business, and quickly realized that I'd found something I dearly love -- a medium to be both artistic and useful. I've expanded into belts, slings and straps, and possibles bags and sporrans. I greatly enjoy it, though I am frequently beset by artist's block (which I've heard is a Californian's excuse) and wildly fluctuating confidence levels. I'm a big fan of my local Tandy Leather, I must add, because the employees there are so wonderful, and there are options for getting into leather work that were within my price range. Thank you for putting together such a wonderful forum here! I hope I may one day contribute. I have already learned much!

Members flerg777 Posted December 19, 2015 Author Members Report Posted December 19, 2015 Thanks! I was hoping others didn't have to suffer from it. : ) Quote "Stuff is eaten by dogs, broken by family and friends, sanded down by the wind, frozen by the mountains, lost by the prairie, burnt off by the sun, washed away by the rain.
