Made some more mug straps for friends! The Aquilla came out a lil rough so I'll need to work on simplifying that pattern when it is so small. Happy with the results overall though! #leatherwork #leathercraft

Making a lil Koozy gift for a good friend. This is a pretty fun template to whip up something fast. Just enough space to lay down some tooling. Still in love with these backgrounders! #leatherwork #leathercraft

Skeletor Scroll Case Tooling! Not my art (reference from image search, this is for personal use only). I couldn't resist trying out these backgrounders. Casing was off so shadow feels inconsistent but still love this! Excited to finish the whole thing with dye, etc! #leatherwork #leathercraft

Working on some Sabatons for my Skeletor Renfaire Outfit! Pattern from Prince Armory Academy. Lil fiddling figuring out the fit but it'll do! #leatherwork #leathercraft

A little tooling practice while playing d&d. Trying out a new backgrounder stamp! Love it! #leatherworking #leathercraft

The other pouch I added to my Skeletor outfit for Renfaire. This was my first attempt at a digital design but I didn't properly measure the gusset. Went with a kind of Barbarian Theme for fun. #leatherwork #leathercraft

elephat.bsky.social @elephat.bsky.social · 03/02/2025

My first belt! I ended up freehanding the design with a small amount of prep for the Skeletors and Half Orcs designs. My first time doing something lined. This has become my primary belt that I use everyday and dang that feels good. #leatherwork #leathercraft

Pouch I made to attach to my Skeletor costume for a Renfaire. This was my first time doing a toggle! Messy tying job but def a useful thing to know! Pouches are so much fun to make. #leatherwork #leathercraft

elephat.bsky.social @elephat.bsky.social · 01/02/2025

Pouch I made for my niece using a Darkhorse Workshop Pattern. Super fun to learn this o-ring design. This was my first time painting the tooling a separate color and have been repeating it since. #leatherwork #leathercraft

Since I’m new, thought it’d be a spot of fun to repost my Cryptober series from 2024. Enjoy!

Bag I made for my sister in law. 5-6 oz Milled vegtan with an attempt at Basil Leaves for the tooling design. Feels like a bag for a hobbit. #leatherwork #leathercraft

I have a real pouch obsession. This thing turned out a lil too big to have on a belt but I like the overall look and always enjoy these gear lock thingies. In conclusion, pouches rule. #leatherwork #leathercraft

Made a Bears themed Koozy for my brother. Learning to get more comfy with backgrounders. Still need to find that sweet spot with the pressure. Also, yes the C is backwards. Whoops. #leatherwork #leathercraft

My first wallet! Pattern from Darkhorse Workshop. I've been playing a Barbarian for 3+ years in D&D so was great to make a lil tribute to that character to carry with me. The elephants aren't exactly Barbarian but what can I say...I love elephants! #leatherwork #leathercraft

I got into #leatherwork because I wanted to make a Skeletor Costume in 24. It has now turned into an obsession and outlet for creative energy. #leathercraft

First time making a Koozy! Going to modify the pattern to make it a bit bigger. Also my first time doing just antique (which I did again for my dice tray). Great pattern to make quick gifts and get tooling practice. #leatherwork #leathercraft

Bag made for my wife's birthday. Came out pretty rad! First time using d rings. Tooling design inspired by a few of her favorite things. Always love a lined belt but oh man that hand stitching will getcha ya. #leatherwork #leathercraft

First Dice Tray! Really fun to make. Tried out using a background matter to get the shading on the letters. Template I made will work out for other designs. Had to improvise a leather washer when I realized the line 20 Snaps were not gonna work on 3-4oz leather. #leatherwork #morkborg
