🥱 Close to 6 hours of sleep, good enough I guess. Odd bad night of sleep, not sure what triggered it.

🙄 Eesh. A sleepless night so far. Brain is too active. Not tired but want to be sleeping.

Another Strathmere bag in progress.
Doesn’t take long for me to get carried way 🙈
Thinking these will fall into an “accessory” item of the Strathmere Leather line. Going to keep using mine to see how things hold up, so far very pleased with it.
☁️ Boots on. Harry Potter playing in the background. Drinking water then switching to coffee. “Back half of the year” vibes are beginning to kick in.

Gathering hardware for the next bag. Working title is The Franklin.
Much better. Adjusted the size slightly. Veg-tan leather with deerskin lace.
Holding two field notes notebooks and two traveler’s company “inserts”. Will use it for a while to see how it holds up.
Logged into my Shopify site to handle some order stuff and noticed there are 2 live visitors there now. Wish there was a way for me to say “hi!” without it coming across as spammy or get in their way. I so want my online stores to be better at highlighting the human part of it all.
Enjoying this.
Made it quickly last night using scrap oil-tan that I’ve had for a while. Will make another today with veg-tan. Deerskin lace works well though, will continue with that approach.
Quick one to get the brain into gear.
☕ Making a quick cup of evening coffee.

Evening plans: sketching a few ideas, publishing a new website (maybe two), cutting into some leather.
Leather wrapped handlebars. Loving them.
