After I had this post on my dash, I kind of got obsessed with this.. (and screamed at @cephalopodvictorious about it)
But getting into this without some practice would be turning leather into trash, and that would make me sad.
So I went on the artists website and bought a very small pattern!
And today I went to the local leather shop and bought a bunch of stuff

World's Oldest Leather Shoe, from Armenia, c.3500 BCE: this prehistoric shoe dates back to about 5,500 years ago, making it the oldest leather shoe in the world
Tumblr media
The shoe was found within a cave in the Vayots Dzor province of Armenia, where it had been preserved beneath a layer of sheep dung for more than five millennia.
From the BBC:
At 5,500 years old, the well preserved cow-hide shoe pre-dates Stonehenge by 400 years and the Pyramids of Giza by 1,000 years.
It was made of a single piece of leather and was shaped to fit the wearer's foot, researchers say.
The shoe contained grass, although the archaeologists are uncertain as to whether this was to keep the foot warm or to maintain the shape of the footwear.
Archaeologists put the shoe's remarkable preservation down to the stable, cool and dry conditions in the cave, and the fact that the floor of the cave was covered by a thick layer of sheep dung. This layer of excrement acted as a solid seal, preserving it over the millennia.
According to researchers, the shoe was deliberately buried in a clay-lined pit located within the cave system, though it's unclear why it was originally buried there. The evidence suggests that the shoe was more than just a ritual object -- an imprint of the wearer's big toe is still visible in the leather, and there is a significant amount of wear along the heel and ball of the foot.
This is the oldest leather shoe that has ever been discovered, but older shoes made of plant fiber have been found at sites in Missouri and Oregon. The oldest shoes ever discovered come from Oregon's Fort Rock Cave, where archaeologists unearthed dozens of sandals dating back to about 10,000 years ago.

Just realized I haven’t shared these here yet. My hand strap design! Crafted for comfort and accessibility. No buckle = no pinching. For anyone and any style of play :-)
In comparison to the thigh strap there is obviously no base but the big difference is the ring is fixed and cannot be swapped out.
Sex should be accessible and that is how I go into designing strap ons. Currently there are 3 different options. Who knows, maybe I’ll make more….

Mum is making a holster and arson is wondering why she doesn’t make one with a good looking grackle like herself on it.

I wanted to make us both into D&D characters for our trip to Evermore Park (and also FanX). Lots of sewing, leather craft, and winging it later, here we are!

Leatherwork Commissions Open!
hey all! I'm revamping my commission post and restructuring my prices on custom collars!
my work is 100% full or top grain leather. what does that mean? well, when you buy "genuine" leather, what you're really getting is leather scraps and shavings pressed and glued into shape. which is why genuine leather falls apart! my leather is actually a full hide, and will last for years.
Examples of my work on Instagram: https://instagram.com/steorran.leatherwork
my Etsy store:
https://www.etsy.com/shop/SteorranLeatherwork
want something custom? I've got you! I'll work with you to create a handmade, handstitched leather piece. Prices vary--a simple dog collar would be $40, whereas a fully custom collar with a complex design could run as high as $100. Seen it here on my Tumblr or on Instagram? I can make you something similar, customized to your specifications! Some examples of what I can make:
Purses
Wallets
Messenger bags
Backpacks
Handbags
Dice bags
Tote bags
Watch bands
... and of course, dog collars!
To order, DM me here, or on Instagram, or email me at [email protected]!
