Collars!

[hazliya]

So, a bunch of plain leather dog collars were discontinued at work. I also am in possession of a leather stamping kit, and an awesome idea came to me.

I'm going to make myself a custom collar!

Basically, they're super-soft, super-comfy collars with silver buckles. And real leather, too - finding real leather is a bitch, never mind at a reasonable price and comfort level. Especially for a human.

It occurred to me as I planned to make one for myself that other people on my f-list would probably be interested in them, too, so I snagged a bunch in a few different colors.

So the collars would be stamped with whatever you want (up to about 25 characters), and if you want extra stuff, like collar charms, I can make those too. Cost would be dependent on how custom you want it, like if you wanted crystals or chains hanging from it or whatnot. And the charms can be whatever - one of mine's going to be feathers and charm bracelet bits, probably. =)

Besides, as far as these go, if you like the way I design my jewelry, I can get just as creative with collar accessories. I'll also monogram the inside for you as part of the package if you want one.

Also, I'm only making a limited number of these (eight, specifically), so reserve one ASAP if you want one.

EDIT: Just added the ones I ordered to the list. It's bigger, but since people requested some already, the list already started shrinking.

Women tend to have necks ~13", and men tend to be up near ~14". And you order a little big. Almost all of my collars have been 14". I had one 12" that was a little on the big side.

So, if you see the size/color you want, first come, first served. Comment with the collar you want and the email you want me to talk details with.

This is going to be so much fun.

Really???

Me either but I made a pretty shoddy one back in the day. Most craft stores offer the supplies to do it. (As I recall mine may still be out on permenant loan.)

Nonetheless learning some basic leatherworking for accessories could be useful to you whatwithall the jewelerycraft.

Well, experimenting with leather still won't get me anywhere near professional quality, as these are. These are some pretty nice collars, well-sewn and tooled. I wouldn't want to make a crappy one for someone. I like quality.
