A zillion hours of hammering, skiving, dyeing, and Angelus paint later, finally finished my rapier hanger.

*blinks* Well, this is by far the most popular thing I've ever put on this site. Wow, I was not expecting this degree of enthusiasm! If someone would like one for themselves, I'm happy to discuss leatherworking commissions, or if people have questions, let me know and I'll do my best to field them.

I'll try to track messages on here, but my professional email's the safest bet if you would like one of your own - nicolec @ artofnicolecardiff . com

CRAB CRAB CRAB

This was my first time working with leather because I got a burning desire for a bag shaped like a horseshoe crab. It has two zippered compartments, and an adjustable strap so it can be worn at my side as a cross-body bag or on my back more like a backpack.

Whether they’re digging through the dirt or rolling through the grass, you can’t help but be charmed by the purity of pups. That’s exactly why artist @da_gaemee creates lovable hand embroidery art of dogs being dogs. Each piece captures some of the joy canines find in even the smallest things.

“I just want to draw a little happiness that can be found in everyday life and to present a small smile to those who see my works,” da_gaemee tells My Modern Met. “These days, I stitch about the life of dogs who find happiness even in the small things. They’re serious and passionate about tree branches, torn clothes, digging tunnels, and even breaking sofas. I wanted to capture their passion and innocent happiness.”

To enhance the realism of her works, da_gaemee often incorporates real-life materials into her embroidery. For instance, in the depiction of two pups digging through the ground, the artist actually mixed sand with glue and attached it to the fabric, thereby giving the piece greater depth and volume. Likewise, the portrait of two joyful black labs carrying a large stick features a real stick that da_gaemee stitched into the composition. These clever touches make her art not only fun but relatable as well.
