Big Papa Leather Report post Posted January 11, 2009 I was able to get a couple pieces done on Thursday and Friday this week. I took the 8th and 9th off for my B-day and to go to the doctor for him to tell me it's time to get my knee re-did. Yea for me! Anyway I made three notepads. One I sent my buddy without photographing it. Here is one I made for another bud, I did his initials and a compass. The second is for my sister-in-law. I kinda did it to match a purse I did for her. Sorry it's not a great photo of the notepad. Here's the purse... The third item is what I call a cell wallet. My teenage children's school always complains about them carrying a cell phone in there back pockets. So I make ip this simple wallet/sleeve. It makes the cell phone print like a wallet in the back pocket. The little charm is attached and hangs outside the pocket like a lanyard. So far I have made about 15 of these for other kids and they all love them as they don't get harrassed for haing a phone in thier pockets. Will be great till one gets caught and the teachers find out. Yeah contributing to the deliquency of minors I suppose, but oh well.... Allen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Papa Leather Report post Posted January 11, 2009 Thanks Graybeard, That's the view off my back porch. It is a much better view when the lake is up to level. Right now it is 10'+ down. All I can see is a small little creek. I live 35+ miles from Austin and when the drive in starts to get on my nerves, I grab a cold one and sit on the back porch and remember why I bought this place. Allen that and now I do not have to deal with Houston, Houston's traffic and big city problems. Small community and good people. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like the view too - and the leatherwork is cool. I haven't forgotten I owe you a mail, Allen, but I'm still struggling to recover my main computer. I'll get to it very soon! Thanks for your patience. Ray Edited January 11, 2009 by UKRay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
