More Nephew Madness!

I Have a strange feeling that I will be posting many 
Rylin photos on this blog. He is growing up so fast, and a picture
 a every three days does not seem to do him
 justice in how much he is learning and growing.
 His Eyes are so crazy, I cant get over it.


 I don't know how he learned to pose.

 Painting motif!
                             Strait from bottle to straw...

Ta done!

Leather Working

I decided to dabble in leather working not too long ago,
 here is a clutch and a wallet I've made.
 Let me know what you think, 
I am open to any and all suggestions.

 I've been playing around with patching different 
leather pieces together and it has turned out pretty well
 (in my mind).
This clutch is asymmetrical.
I was able to fit quite a few things into it, including
 my I pad mini with great ease.

I am a little crazy about using Leather Cement, Does anyone
 know of any reasons not to use it to hold a piece together?

This is just a minimalist wallet with two 
compartments held close by a leather piece that
 folds into the front compartment.

He is growing up so fast and has so many new wonderful faces, 
here are a few pictures from the other day.
