New from Thunder Rose Leather

Spring is definately here now. Even my grape vines are getting there leaves. The only trees left to come out are the mesquite trees. They come out in April. I love mesquite trees. I have a really big one in my garden. They are a desert tree so they don't have to be watered.
A few things are coming up in the garden and the march winds have been blowing strong.
We've been busy in the shop. Thought I'd share a new thing or two with you today. I got some new beads in this week and as soon as I have a moment I am giong to post them in our leather and bead store on Etsy.
 This is one of my bead walls. I have one here by our singer sewing machine. A lot of medicine bags have been made on this beauty. 

Most of our work is hand stitched but a few things are done on a sewing machine.

 Here is something new form our store on Etsy.
Here is a new burned design that we were asked to do.



Our buckskin medicine bags come in many different sizes . Some are plain , some beaded and some burned. You should come by and check out the different ones in our Etsy store. If you go to this link you will find a whole section of medicine bags to choose from.

This post is short and sweet. Rosie and I need to get outside to the garden and see how things are going. (growing)

Here are some pictures of our beautiful mesquite trees. One is a summer picture and two are winter pictures. All are beautiful.



Have an awesome week! 
Blessings!

Thunder Rose Leather It's all about handmade

Today I would like to show you a few things from our Handmade Artist's shop
 This morning I woke up and decided to create a highlight on Handmade Artists.
A highlight is the same thing as a treasury, except you get to put 20 artists in and everyone's highlight is on the front page of Handmade Artists. Each artist in the highlight gets a picture of there art on the front page of Handmade Artists. So it's very fair for all artists. 
Spring is right around the corner so I thought I'd show a couple of  signs of spring and summer that are to come.


This is a  crossbody handbag with a beaded hummingbird. It's made of soft, palamino elkskin leather with contrasting saddle elkskin lace. This leather bag is perfect for your smartphone and a few other items.

This fringed leather crossbody handbag  with a beaded dragonfly is made of durable tobacco elkskin leather .
This bag features an extra pocket inside and one on the back and an adjustable 4 point braided strap.
The beaded dragonfly is beaded with glass seed beads in rainbow bead colors.
A great fringed leather crossbody bag for the person who loves dragonflys and having a special bag with them always.

This is the highlight I made this beautiful spring morning.

Spring is on its way

I am up very early this fine Sunday Morning. We have been getting some really good rains. The perennial plants in our garden are waking up and I saw my first robin. Spring is very close.
New beginnings and fresh air with the rains makes for good feelings.  I saw an amazing rainbow the other day that always makes me smile. 



Here are a couple of our leather creations.
 

This simple leather crossbody  bag is made of brown elkskin leather. It is a perfect leather bag to carry your phone and a few other items in. If you are going out to dinner , dancing or a movie this bag would be light and easy to carry along.
