Wire wrapped glass spheres

Ok, so "spheres" might be a bit pretentious. They're marbles! But cool lookin' marbles! They catch the light nicely, and look good swept up in wire. Like miniature planets caught in a net!

Zebra Print Dog Walking Hands Free Belt

I made this belt for my friend Michelle, and her 2 dogs Lou & Junior! 

Almost 100' of paracord was used for it! 2,  1" steel rings are at each end, with a mountain climbing grade carabiner for a connector. The leashes can be clipped to the carabiner to be "hands free"

Donations, donations, donations!

My coworker Michelle volunteers at a Rescue. I had previously made her a paracord leash for one of her dog's Lou (red handkerchief) 

The other one is Junior!

She wanted some simple leads for her pooches. I'm also going to make her a bunch of leads for the Rescue she volunteers at! 

(pics to follow of more of my leashes in action)

Here's Junior breaking his in!

550lb paracord was used with a simple triple braided core and a "1/2" cobrastitch handle. With a 1" steel ring at the end for a slip knot!

A leash for old friend

I really love what I do! Notes like these are amazing

Buddy!

My friend Amanda recently got a new puppy!

(the cutie pictured above!)

 So I'm making this for her

A purple & black leash. 550lb paracord, triple braided core with a cobra stitch wrapped handle.

It has a secondary handle for added control.

Cartoons!

I've loved drawing ever since I can remember. I went ( I use the word "went" loosely) to the Art Instruction School, a  correspondence institution. Tipy the Turtle, Pete the Pirate! Remember them!? The creator of Peanuts, Charles Schultz went there!

To clarify things..... I am in no way comparing myself to likes of the creator of Snoopy...

I was always more of Garfield man. 

Jim Davis rules!

Is he a Road Runner? Or a Chicken?

Upper Moreland High School's 2014 Craft Event

Upper Moreland High School in Pennsylvania has an annual fund raiser craft fair / event in December. I've done 2 of these events so far. This year was a good turn out! Made a few sales, talked to some nice people and had a good time

B I G R O B O T !

At the recent Pancake Breakfast I finally found a home for this big fella! 

It's odd, it's a bitter sweet feeling ( 'least it is for me) to sell one of my pieces that's been around for a while. Kinda like losing an old friend. I'm sad to see him go, put happy to have him leave.

( i know I probably sound ridiculous by sentimentally  anthropomorphizing a sculpture)

 Au revior Big Robot, good luck in your new home.

A collar for Mongo's Wife

I met a nice guy who asked me to make his lovely wife a paracord collar. I really hope they enjoy it!

Mongo & his lady, and yup, that's me in the green shirt in the background!

Pancake Breakfast Y'all !

The Patriots of Pennsylvania Motorcycle Club had a Pancake Breakfast Fundraiser. My good friend Mike gave me an invite

That's Mike, or ad he's better known as Snapp, and his fiance Heather in the left corner

 The food was great! Chocolate chip pancakes, sausage and scrambled eggs!

 The music was pretty sweet! Classic Rock, Beatles ...

 And the people were awesome!

And, I found a home for this big fella!
