Wicket and Craig English bridle 8-9oz. Tree Dee printed a stamp for the wet leather, compressed under pressure, and finished with green felt on the back, and pea green Ritza Tiger thread around the perimeter.

Love this! I bet a lot of people would buy them!

Maybe so. The issue for me is I want it to be more than just a cranked out item. I take time dying the edges and slicking them down. The stitching takes a good amount of time to get right. I’d probably need $25 just to make it worth my time, and that seems kinda ridiculous for a coaster, you know.

I use this method to make personalized gifts for my friends and family mostly.

I absolutely understand. I do wood burning and my pieces take years. I don’t sell them. No one would be willing to pay what would make sense.

Yeah. Better just keeping them or making them as gifts. Thanks for commenting, I appreciate it.
