I made a thing!

I've been "leather curious" for a long time, but I finally actually made something.

I needed a wand holster and couldn't find one I liked, so I did the most expensive thing possible and decided to make my own. $1,000 in leather (it was on sale!) and tools later, I have a wand holder and a new hobby.

This is made out of Tandy's economy blue belly. A love how the color turned out after some carnauba creme and a good buffing. I can tell it's not as durable as I want due it being economy and belly... but all the double shoulders I bought will make for some great follow on projects. I'm signed up to make one for each of my kids now, so I'm getting into doing my own dye jobs.
