Members stormcrow Posted September 9, 2018 Members Report Posted September 9, 2018 A friend asked for a blue and orange card wallet so I did a selection for her to choose from. I used some giardini edge paint on a couple of them the other was a more traditional burnished edge. I'm very new to using edge paint so I'm not too great but I'm slowly getting better. Quote
Members HamiltonLeather Posted September 9, 2018 Members Report Posted September 9, 2018 Those look sharp. What kind of dye did you use for that blue? Airbrushed? Quote

Members tnhart78 Posted September 10, 2018 Members Report Posted September 10, 2018 Wow! Hopefully, one day I can do this good. Excellent work! Quote Tony Any task, no matter how difficult, can be broken into many simple steps.

Members bdpeters Posted September 10, 2018 Members Report Posted September 10, 2018 Very nice looking colors. The colors and shades chosen for the leather and the stitching go well together. Edges look great. Quote

Members battlemunky Posted September 10, 2018 Members Report Posted September 10, 2018 Like Yin said, those are clean. Really clean. So, which one did she choose? Quote
bikermutt07 Posted September 10, 2018 Report Posted September 10, 2018 Very professional looking. 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.

I'd say you nailed it. I've been trying to use edge paint for years now and still not happy with it! 3 hours ago, stormcrow said: please post yours as well I've posted plenty of things, your card wallet is better and deserves to shine!
