(more of ) My work in it's home!

This tarantula is one of my oldest pieces. Jen, a friend of a friend, her boyfriend bought it at a recent craft faire ( A.A.C's Fall Fest) 

My good friend Michele bought this paracord bracelet at the A.A.C's Fall Fest!

My Co-Worker Randy, had me make him a "skinny" paracord bracelet

Fall Fest 2014

The Abington Art Center in Jenkintown P.A had it's 2nd Annual Fall Festival yesterday. I was one of the artists in attendance. As luck would have it my table #12  was put next to my friend Aly's table. She is very talented ceramicist. I didn't have much of an opportunity to explore the sights... But it seemed like all who attended had a great time. My experience was a good one! I met some nice people, sold some things, and (hopefully) set up some more work for myself. I'm looking forward to next year's event!

I love seeing my work being put to good use

Kayla's Leash

 An 8' long pink & purple paracord leash! 550lb cord was used for all. The core braid is a simple triple braid with cobrastitch wrapped handles. There's an additional handle closer to dog for added control. The leash is long enough to used as a trainer, or as a camping / backyard tie out. It's also long enough to sling from waist to shoulder to free your hands up. The leash can be double onto itself to become a more convenientional lentgh .

 My friend Michele asked me to make this leash for this fluffy Lil' monster! Kayla!

the best dog collar ever!

I have the week off, and have Mack for a house guest. I made him a paracord dog collar a little over a year ago. It was my first attempt at such things... But it needed to be updated.....

The grey & teal, is the updated better version. The yellow & grey is was the prototype.

New!

Happy accident !

I started making another belt, ...it was supposed to be a man's medium (38" total length, for app.  34") belt. But I got about 3/4 of the way done, ...and ran out of cording,... The dye lot was different for the grey. So I made it shorter and gave it to Kelly!

(another) Paracord Leash

Triple braided shaft, with cobra stitched handles. 550lb paracord and a traditional steel clasp.

B E L T !

I made a flat, functional everyday wear belt!

App 44" x  1-1/4" x 1/4"

It's made from 2 pieces of 550lb black paracord. One piece is 100' ft. the 2nd piece is app 45"

With a steel buckle! It's cobra stitched for look, and for adjustability!

Paracord Dog Collar

This is for my friend Adam, well for his Dog Spike!

22"x 1-1/2" x 3/8"

550lb Grey & Purple paracord was used. A double cobra stitch in grey with the purple lacing together. A heavy duty plastic safety buckle was used with a steel fastener & steel ring.

This came out better than I had hoped!

More pics to follow with Spike in his new snazzy collar!

Like little planets caught in a wire trap

These 3 amber & brown ceramic pieces have elaborate wire wrapping holding them in place. 

These are about the size of a quarter!

This little red glass piece is one of my favorites. Thinner wire was used for a more delicate feel. About the size of a nickel!

Agate Pendant

Smoothed Agate, wrapped with thinner gauge wire, bound with (app) 24" steel chain, and wire swept clasp.

This piece is app. 2"x 1-3/4" x 3/16" 

This came out great! A very fun, chunky, summer inspired piece 

Blue Glass & Steel

A wire wrapped glass sphere. I really like how this piece turned out!

Soon to be sold to an old friend from highschool. She saw the pic on F.B a few hours after i posted and messaged me
