A wee Pictish pouch for myself :)

[Dreadhead]

Hey folks,

I've been making a lot of pouches lately amongst a hoard of other stuff in prep for norway this year (more on that later). I discovered a few weeks ago that my new phone doesn't fit in my regular pouch, so decided to knock up a new one complete with my usual Pictish style. I had one cut out which had some nasty pen marks on it, so I used this for my own pouch and covered the marks up with some black dye

For this, I also wanted to experiment with stag antler buckles and strap ends, and putting ring/dot marks in as I seldom work with antler/bone. This was as frustrating as it was fun to make

Very nice and an 'aged' look. Not so 'wee' as I expected from the thread title tho

Very nice looking pouch.

Have you used the airbrush for dying the leather, or is it just the way the light is catching the picture?

Nah didn't bother with the airbrush for this one as I wanted it to just be one single colour. Only use the airbrush when I want to blend colours, and airburhsing doesnt penetrate as nicely.
