Members ltracy1000 Posted September 8, 2016 Members Report Posted September 8, 2016 The other major accomplishment, having only taken almost two years to finally complete, is my wife's new wallet. Of course, the extended timeline was due to moving across country, work, and a healthy dose of discouragement and procrastination... lol. Anyway, it's finally done and she seems pretty stoked about it. Quote --Landon
Members CraftyNick Posted September 8, 2016 Members Report Posted September 8, 2016 Looks like it was as rather large project. Not surprised it took a while. Did you paint the different parts of the decoration different colors with acrylic based paint? Quote
Members ltracy1000 Posted September 8, 2016 Author Members Report Posted September 8, 2016 Thanks for the note! Well, on this *ahem* attempt, it actually only took about 4 days to complete. The aforementioned timeline included restarting the entire project twice, getting angry, and not doing anything with leather for about six months... lol. Anyway, as for the question about color, it is actually all the different colors I used of fiebings dye, not paint. Quote --Landon
bikermutt07 Posted September 8, 2016 Report Posted September 8, 2016 Well worth the wait, I'm sure. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.
