Some of my faves.

I think one of the biggest things that keeps me going with my leather is being inspired by other artists. I wanted to share a few of my faves lately.

Wool wrapped bangles made by misticfibers http://www.etsy.com/shop/mysticfibers . So bright and fun! I love the simplicity and texture of these bangle bracelets.

I freakin' love this dress! So adorable made by onthetrashyside http://www.etsy.com/shop/onthetrashyside . She has some really awesome handmade rockabilly style clothing. I could totally see this dress being worn at a vintage trailer rally or a sisters on the fly event http://www.sistersonthefly.com/ . Too fun!!!

This apron made by snappyshop http://www.etsy.com/shop/snappyshop would make cooking that much more fun! Snappyshop makes lots of other fun style aprons, but this one would be so great to wear hosting that summer bbq! Or just hangin' in the kitchen looking pretty.

Spring is around the corner, and planting some pretty flowers is a must! What a neat idea kcsweetinspirations http://www.etsy.com/shop/KCSweetInspirations has selling her hollyhock seeds for others to enjoy! Hand harvested, they come up year after year. These would look gorgeous in any garden!

Making a quilt is so impressive to me. So much time and strategy put into making one. I think this quilt is lovely with all the fun colors (not to mention it's at a awesome discounted price!). Sygnetcreations handmade this beautiful quilt http://www.etsy.com/shop/sygnetcreations.

Thanks for inspring me everyone!

Road trip series

I'm excited about my new road trip series I've been playing with. Vintage travel trailer belt buckles, and dotted yellow line belts.

I'm truly inspired by my recent purchase of a little vintage travel trailer of my own. A '75 Safari 13 footer. She's a doll, Can't wait to fix her up and have her ready for the summer! Meanwhile, other fun RV inspired buckles yet to come. I'm also in the works of getting my road trip series put on this website http://www.rvartgallery.com/ They have a large collection of RV, and trailer related items for sale. Check 'em out!
