Fashion Design-Belt up

After my belt decided to wear out and break, it was only natural that I make a new belt instead of buying one.  So that’s exactly what I did!

A double prong buckle and decorative belt loop with the Adam n Eve logo on it adds a little colour to the finished belt.

Fashion Design-YoYo'in again

Another Metro cardholder I made, this time the client wanted the Taiwan flag in all its original colours, I am particularly pleased with the deep rich tone of the final colours.

Fashion Design-Tag It!

A friend asked if I could make them a luggage tag after they saw some of the Metro cardholders I had made.  I thought it would be an interesting item to try and make, so I agreed to the challenge.

The design of the luggage tag has a clear plastic window on one side to keep the travellers information visible, yet protected from the elements.  The other side of the tag is decorated with the flag of Taiwan.

With the friend now backpacking around the world, the tag is joining them on their travels.

Fashion Design-Take the World on!

A custom project for a customer, consisting of matching luggage tag and passport holder.

The luggage tag followed an earlier design I had made, with some improvements to the design, while the passport holder was a new design I had to come up with for the job.  The passport holder was a little trickier with its unseen mechanics due to the clients wishes to have card slots on the inside of the holder.  But with some layering and juggling, there are now 3 card slots for the customers use.

The outside of both items was embellished with the customer’s logo, to make the whole set matching.

Fashion Design-Watching it all

After the strap on one of my watches broke, instead of buying a new strap or even a new watch, I decided that making a new strap would be the better plan.

So using some webbing, and green dyed leather, I made a simple yet comfortable watch strap for my everyday use.
