I just finished a couple projects using kits from Tandy. The first one is set of can koozies. I liked the floral pattern that came with the kit so I used it. On the insulated cup I used a belt pattern from a Robert Beard class that I took a few years ago. Both pieces were finished with a coat of neatsfoot oil followed by a coat of neatlac. Some people say that combination isn't supposed to work, but I have had good results using it. I rub the oil in good, and then let it set for a bit, then apply the neatlac and rub it in really good too. These were fairly quick and easy to make up. They got a pretty good reaction from my family.

Are the insulated cups the new kits from Tandy? How do you like them? I was thinking of buying some. I like your work....it's a rare day that I do those floral designs :)

Hi Holly,

Both the cup and the koozies were from the new Tandy kits. They seem to be fine, but ya never know about the cups until you get something hot in them. I thought that the leather was a little tough to cut with the swivel knife, but it tooled pretty nice and I was happy with the finished leather parts looked.
