And yes, she was wearing the bracelet with nothing else except a necklace that I also made for her!

Ha! Do I know my RWI staff here or what?

I guess you'll have to learn to make a leather thong. :)

:shock:

just dont wear it in the rain. you might never be able to get it off when it dries up!

My inclination was to post something that would doom this thread to the Looney Bin, and I would never do that to CBR's nice strap thread, so I'm just going to keep my mouth shut.

Hell, I thought my comment about her only wearing a necklace that I made for her was going to do it...
It seems either the rules arent as strict as I thought, people didnt understand what I was saying, or those who would typically toss the thread are not here right now.

Posting the pic would have done it.

Philly, I have never sold a strap... but I give them away frequently.
Pick up a Pam, tell me the lug size and you shall have one!

Here is one I made last night for a friend who thought the label might look good incorporated in a strap...
I think it came out alright, and the lines of the label matched the thickness of the strap perfectly.

Not to steal away from your thread but I figured since its from you and you're showing off your strap making skills I would throw a few pics of mine up on my fiddy :)
