Last month, I made a jacket with materials that I had gathered on my motorcycle trip through Scandinavia this summer, and the jacket was sewn and photographed up at the cabin in northern Sweden. Here’s the darker version - the trim was bought in Roros, Norway and the fur came from a shop in Hede, Sweden, paired with a pair of leather embroidered pants. Both pieces were sewn and finished earlier this week in my studio in Toronto, Canada, and will be released for sale on the 27th of this month.. #toxicvision #devilsgarden #embroidery #leatherpants #jacket #handcrafted #darkfashion #leathercraft #altfashion
Things are moving along, I’ve been working nonstop to finish this collection for next Sunday’s release. Here’s a look at my second embroidered piece.. #toxicvision #devilsgarden #newcollection #embroidery #pentagram #leather #fringe #floral #jacket #western #altfashion #handmade #leathercraft #darkfashion #darkart

★ YATZER GIVEAWAY CHRISTMAS 2021 ♥ Our second festive giveaway is a minimalist shoulder bag by one of our favourite leather goods brand, @Tsatsas. Eschewing fleeting trends and decorative flourishes in favour of a less-is-more ethos, the beauty of Tsatsas’ hand-crafted bags is based on the carefully chosen quality leathers, the exquisite craftsmanship and their fine-tuned functionality. Named OLIVE, our pick encapsulates the brand’s design philosophy down to the smallest detail. Made of calfskin leather in the brand’s Offenbach/Main atelier, the bag features an unconventional, sculptural body whose purist lines contrast with a filigree chain made in Italy from recycled brass. Lined with lamb Nappa in pacific blue and equipped with a back-facing narrow flap fastened with hidden magnets, each bag comes with its own individual chronological product number. Cutting a striking figure, OLIVE is elegant and progressive companion for day and night.
To enter the giveaway and win an OLIVE shoulder bag in black {the colour of the chain (gold or silver) will be selected by the winner} you must follow the steps below:

Working on finishing up a new wholesale orders before taking a necessary spring break . Will shortly put new styles and colors up on the site but here’s an Alma in Cement being hand sewn with contrasting grey thread
6 years ago I tried my hand at leather working for the first time. I had no experience on what I was doing. I decided to make a rose on my first attempt. The only tools I had were a hammer, bevel, and a scrap piece of leather. As you can see it came out ok but nowhere near what I would be satisfied with. It didnt have that pop or standout detail most tooled leather pieces had. So comparing my first piece to what I’m able to create now I can see a lot of improvements in my work. But since this is a side hobby I’m nowhere near a master craftsman. But maybe one day..
Alchemist/Doctor medicine vial box is now complete! Took it for a test run outside, and by run, I mean wearing it casually walking around…not running around. Sadly I dont have a cool medieval attire to showcase with it. Passed with high expectations though! No mini vials popping out of the side hub, and nothing chaotic happened inside the bag. The bag stays close to the hip and doesnt weigh the belt down while walking around. The latch lock works well for the flap and it’s easy to open and close while being worn. The clasps on the O rings are removable and can be put at the ends of a long strap of it has a hole to hook them in and can be worn over the shoulder as well. Look for this to be listed soon!
Finished, sold, and mailed the steampunk medical bracer a customer wanted. This is a rebuild of the one I made last year, and the last picture is a comparison between the two. Test fit to make sure everything works and is accessible. The winged nut on the med tape spindle tightens down to lock it in place and can be loosened up when needing to pull the tape, as well as comes off so you can change it with ease. The 2 vials, scissors and tweezers all fit snugly in their slots and aren’t hard to remove or put back in. Same with the front flap snaps and small pouch, both are easy to undo and snap back into place and dont pop open when moving about. And the elastic pen holder can hold a fountain pen easily as well as other pens/markers. Really happy with how it came out, and hope the customer appreciates it as well.
I’m not dead just yet! Things have been busy on this end and my work area became cluttered in the process where I had no room to even work. Tho tonight I was able to get some stuff in motion. More vial plate belt holders More flaps and fronts for large pouches More base bracers cut out More bracelets cut out. Now to get around to tooling, trimming, beveling, and dyeing them all to get more products up in my shop.
The large leather medicine vial box has been sold and on its way to its new home! Already eager to get a review from the customer on how they like it and what they think when they have it in their possession. I dont know if I will make another one of these yet or not, I’ll most likely wait for their review first. This is my first big sale on etsy which I’m grateful for since all proceeds from this sale are going into taking my cat to the vet for bloodwork to find out what is wrong with him. <3 so a big thank you to the buyer!!
In my haste for pictures I forgot one of the key decorations. The ornament charm for the flap in the middle. So i got that finished up so it’s all complete now. Also I love the filter in the second picture makes things pop more imo.
Finally finished this project. Was long overdue but finally managed the time in to get it done! Have to say the longest part of any of my bigger pouch projects like this is the hand stitching.
A little about this project. I like to make things for fantasy outfits and costumes. So instead of the usual drawstring pouch I wanted to make like a belt type briefcase/satchel. Mainly for those who like to go above and beyond in their aesthetics and to still have something functional. A pouch can only just hold what’s inside of it. While this design can add to it even more.
The case itself has two loops for attaching it to a belt. It is 2 inches deep, 10.5 inches wide, and 7 inches tall. So it can hold a tablet, books, wallets, handpurse, etc. There is a front pocket flap that can hold a checkbook, or smartphone, or just notes/documents. As well as a small key clamp that can hold keys or whatever else you have on a keyring.
Additionally on one side is a big D ring which can hold a drawstring pouch or whatever else one might want to attach there. The other side has 2 small O rings which can hold potion bottles, small pouches, or other items that can be hooked or attached. The bottom of it there is a small gap that I left when doing the bottom straps around the body so it can be used to hold a scroll of paper.
I’ll have this up on the shop soon, just need to get some better pics. Took these in my haste just to share with you all!
Finally got all the bodywork stitching finished. Only thing left to do is trim stitching around front flap and to add the front overlap straps and this project will be complete.
I can’t remember, did I tell you guys I work in a leather shop now? I’m finally to the point where I’m familiar enough with the craft to start designing my own things and hdksjdbfjskdn I’m just gonna have to live in the shop now, I have too many ideas
I have an ever growing stash of leather skins which are too small for jackets and vests, so many laborious but loving hours go into patchwork leather pants. Currently have 2 pairs like this up for grabs in a new collection, I will be aiming for a weekend release! Stay tuned…
