I like to make things, read, play video & ttrpg games, and adventure. Games with a story. Too many authors to even list. Mostly I hide in the basement listening to audiobooks and making things. thenerdyleatherworker.mayhem.my (under construction)

You’re wonderful all the ways. I hope you know that. And thank you for sharing your creativity πŸ«‚ It’s hard to keep being positive all the time, and your content helps people by lifting their spirits for awhile.

You kind of prove why no party is complete without a hard. :)

To give you an idea - the little pocket is normal veg tan leather. I used the same dye on the pocket as the bigger part behind. But I liked the way the jade green came out, really highlighting the texture and grain of the leather.

Made this dragonfly purse. Pattern by Creative Awl. Hand cut, dyed, stitched. My first project using heritage leather and I like the softness of it, but boy does it dye weird.

This is beautifully said. For what it’s worth, I see you. I’m just a rando on the internet but I see your struggle. πŸ«‚

And MDs that literally blame everything on the uterus or lack of one or menopause or menstruating seem to suddenly forget menopause exists when it’s causing the issues for real.

I agree. I didn’t realize that it makes autism more autismy. My meltdowns were so frequent before HRT. And the pain in the ladybits. This stuff needs to be talked about. HRT isn’t just about affirming gender - literally stopped the near constant pain I was in. The heart is affected by menopause, too

I want to say no. But I have done a lot of tiny work in my life so I might be used to it? I have to create my own tools for some of the itty bitty stuff. So I guess other people don’t like it or find it arduous? Plus I don’t use a laser cutter so it’s time consuming. I’m still in 1998 buying xacto

3 monstera leaves I’m just proud of. They’re jade green angelus dye on veg tan 2mm. The background is a dye job on heritage leather that is a culmination of colors and sponge techniques that resulted in a warm red-brown on the leather and on my hands. Don’t dye on edibles, folks. PSA, because my hands are this color now too.

I’m just loving my leafs. One still had tape on, so he has a bald bit that I’ll be taking care of. This is a journal cover I’m making.

Then I’ll use the stylus to trace onto wet veg tan. Though I might make a copy on paper and use it to cut out some to make it 3d. Not sure yet

Purple sharpie line drawings on clear film. It’s a tracing of pencil line drawings for use as a template on leather.

It’s for putting on leather. Did each leaf separate. Still struggling with the stem. I do a few random orientations and then arbitrarily tack them in the stem. My pencil work didn’t show well, but this is the sharpie on transfer film version. Ngl, traced the top right off a real leaf.
