Finished!
Finished!
Still need to get the strap on but this is the general idea.
More importantly, coffee is ready!
Experimenting. The “final” pair will be pink and will have a strap across the top. Making them as a token gift for my niece who arrived in the world on July 5th.
Finished my first leather bag yesterday. It was a gift, probably going to make one for myself 😀
Went to the pool today.
Starting the next project.
Tuesday 🍷.
Still roasting.
Making Father’s Day gifts. Each will include two Field Notes notebooks.
Something I want to get better at is planning things for Mozzie and I to do together on the weekends, but also allowing room to do whatever it is he wants to do.
Late night work, wine, Mad Men. Happy Thursday evening!
Roasted coffee for the first time in a long time today. The smell took me back to my workshop, actually. I miss that part of my life very much.
Have built a lot of furniture in the past few days. This couch was the most involved but no issues. Will also be where Mozzie sleeps when he is over.
Survived another day. Glass of wine called for.
Tomorrow, well, technically today, I begin moving into my new studio apartment. I am eager to make the time and space to write about everything that has led up to this moment.
From our walk yesterday
M.b community, small life update: I’m moving into a studio apartment on June 1st. Will share details later, still processing everything. In the meantime, please share apartment living pro tips. Unchartered waters for me. Hope everyone here is doing well!
The sun is shining now but I enjoyed my early morning walk in the rain.
Guys, I made a leather rose 🌹
Day job work thing at the moment. Get the sense that I’m having my bloodstream injected with corporate poison. Not a good feeling.
Recent leather projects completed: strop (cherry wood, knife carved handle) and hexagon leather pouch with zipper for my cousin who has a few bee hives (thus the hexagon shape).
Man. What a week.
Leather bow tie gift tag 😁
Doing my best to avoid all responsibility today.
