Quick idea I had while out for my walk this morning.
Here’s the video, me talking over a time lapse of making a leather oven mitt from start to finish. This links to the product page, video is at the top of the description. Enjoy!
Just put together a video talking through my process for making the leather oven mitts. Will share here shortly.

💤 Weekend was very good but very full...may need a power nap to push through the afternoon.
The soft pretzels Mozzie and I made this morning. They were an absolute hit at the family/football gathering! A recipe that will be repeated.
🥞 Making pancakes this morning and then soft pretzels for the Packers/Steelers game later today.

Will get better photos tomorrow in natural light, but man! I am jealous of my customer receiving these in the mail shortly!
And finished! Will taste one tonight! Braids were not quite tight enough but am happy with how these have turned out so far.
Time to bake!
🍞 First up for the day: making challah (will be my first time).

📽️ Another late work night, which is ok. Home Alone playing in the background.
Each of my leather oven mitts are dual-lined. In addition to the leather, which certainly offers some heat resistance, is a layer of bamboo batting and insulated thermal lining. I’ve used them up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit without feeling a thing.
Success
Long shot: By chance, anyone here on m.b who can assist with getting in touch with Athens Airport import custom duty dept…? Trying to get a package released for delivery to a customerer in Athens…
