New work coming along on the bench. Took a bit to get some workshop upgrades out of the way! More new things on the horizon soon 😁

A laptop / document folder made to client specs. A little extra padding under the tuck lock clasp to disperse any unwarranted pressure. All done in 5oz green buttero.

And here we have a simple light folding cardholder in waxy badalassi carlo with some chevre sully on the inside. Bright red edge paint and red stitching to complete the look with the red foil stamping. I think my inner goth kid is leaking out with all the black and red combos lately 😂

There's a bit of shine to the burnished edges here I suppose. Natural light does wonders compared to artificial ones ☀

Well, I've finally added 1 1/4" or 30mm belts to the belt options! Keeping it simple with the nice and clean vegetable tan here while it joins the collection of 1 1/2" and 1" belts I've been doing for a bunch of years. As always customisation is welcome on orders. Available on my website or on my etsy page.

Another Cardinal wallet completed. This time in 5 colours of buttero leather. @amyroke polyester thread for stitching. There's also a couple panels of velodon in the exterior piece as well to give it even more of a sturdy secure feel.

This one is also available; dm me if interested.

Monogram for a custom item that is currently being worked on. I've yet to really make a demo of the fonts I have on hand, but this one is much more the classic style in an appropriate size for wallets. Keeping it simple but elegant!

Just a few colours in this next little project 😊

Another view of the zippered long wallet from the other day. One zippered coin pocket, two bill slots and four card slots. Could also hold a phone in there depending on the size.

Black chevre sully on the inside and ortensia (turquoise) Minerva nofin on the outside.

The first run on a zippered long wallet (ladies wallet). I've got loads of notes to myself on changes I'll make but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Very nice and lightweight even with reinforcement and padding. Might also add leather pull tabs to the riri zippers if the new owner would like. Pattern was by @craftsmangus Leathers are alran chevre on the interior and Minerva on the exterior both from @rmleathersupply Thread is @amyroke

Well I hope this bag finds its way home. Just added a crossbody strap made to match the bag here as requested by the client. Sometimes I surprise myself as it actually matches better than I expected I could manage.

I think the kwikprint is now all level, adjusted, set up and cleaned too. These are some old key fob blanks I ended up with a number of years back that were already a number of years old. Gives me a great opportunity to test out not only hot foiling but also using the bench splitter, hand press, and creaser too. 😍

Testing out some different foils while edge paint

Testing out some different foils while edge paint is drying. The gold seems to not want to transfer well onto sully thought the other foils were fine at the same temp.

And back to work on what I had on my bench from before. Going to have to play catch up with a couple things but it already looks like the new tools will improve the workflow a ton for me!

Dialing in the temp for gold foil and sorting out all the type while cleaning up the kwikprint. Since this is my every day wallet it makes a great test subject for monogramming.

Just a quick and simple test with some fonts on the kwikprint. Might take a bit to dial it in just right, but then I may just have some fantastic new personalization options. 😍 #kwikprint #hotfoil #stamping #personalizedgifts #leather #leathercraft #leatherwork #handmade #accessories #yegart #yegleather #yycleathercraft #localbusiness

Bleriot valet tray, for ferrying your pocket goods

Bleriot valet tray, for ferrying your pocket goods.

This one is pink wax from Badalassi Carlo. I don't really find it to be pink, rather it's a muted red that's overall quite nice. Contrasted on the outside with whiskey buttero, and with a 6oz vegetable tan insert in the bottom of the tray for stability and structure. All stitching in white vinymo MBT. Hardware I consists of four brass Chicago screws in case you ever want to flat pack it.

150 x 150 mm, 35mm tall (6x6x1.5 in).

Available now.

Another sample Cardinal wallet completed, this in

Another sample Cardinal wallet completed, this in green and whiskey buttero. This one has some velodon stiffener in the outer piece to mitigate stretching and warping over time. I've never found it to be an issue with wallets I've made in the past but it does give it a very sturdy feeling with the buttero leather.

I'm certainly excited to use it on some forthcoming projects, but I suspect it will remain as a request item for typical bifold wallets.
