Good morning, Bluesky! Things have been insanely dramatic over here, and we're peeved about it, but they're starting to settle down. I wanted to take a moment to thank those of you who came in to the shop on Sunday to tell us what else you were doing on Saturday. Good work. Keep it up.
#resist
On a totally unremarkable subject, we present a break from dumpster fires:
A white and red leather pouch in the process of being sewn on an industrial walking foot sewing machine
#new #pouches in the 'hood! This is a tried and true style in new materials. Don't forget to make time for fun, fellow human beans.
#leatherwork #innerbeastleather #handmade #art
This is the Way.
Battle of the #pouches! (We know the world's on fire. We're trying to provide a moment in which to breathe. Please believe we are screaming at the top of our lungs about it all, to the relevant ears. But also, #art is still important. Do what you can 💚)

We can't wait to read this next project from one of our very favourite authors.
#steadystate, or anyway that's what I keep telling the team. Both is good.
We're here for it! We have so many doodles and need a kick in the pants to implement 😜

#new from the depths of the #innerbeastleather #studio:
Luxury Iridescent Party Hat
Each meticulously #handcrafted #hat features stunning iridescent holographic #leather body, ultra-soft trim, and a fluffy pom-pom. This statement piece is perfect for festivals, fashion-forward, & #unique gifts.
Working on some new #art to deal with some #unexpected #holes in our #stash. One of the things we strive to achieve is #nowaste, by which we mean we push hard to use every square inch of #leather that comes into our #shop. I'm on about the majestic #gecko, today. How are you?
A rare #photograph of #SirNotAppearing! Kind of. Shh. Don't tell. We're working on #stock for our spring tour. You guys ready?

More differenter #art and #craft day, here. I'm pretty stoked about the #colour, and #modding our #centuryhome is always fun. We'll. More like a #restoration, but you know.
Where my #Makers at? What's your favourite #facepalm #leatherwork hack? Mine is #binderclips

More #leatherwork! I was going to take a day off, but I was too stoked about breaking into the new #leather to bring y'all new #art #SundayFunday! #makersgonnamake here at #innerbeastleather
(#wtf even are hashtags 😭 Ya ever feel really old and out of touch? )
#accidentalcamouflage? #innerbeastleather wishes you a #craft filled day surrounded by things you #love doing.
Small business owner here, chiming in to point out what a HORRIFIC pain it is to get the forms I need for my contractors and employees. Personal taxes, businesses with under 20 employees... we're important. Why is everything such a crippling expensive nightmare?
Thank you for what you're doing. 💚
Here's to that!
Thanks! It's hard to get a good photo of because it's so sparkly, but I feel like I got pretty close. I also have another one in a slightly different colour and texture I'm going to break into later today.
I have five or six new Critter designs I want to make time for, too. I feel like we're all going to want something squishy (or filled with sand, both is good), and I'm struggling to give myself grace to work on projects I'm excited about, not to just grind away at "regular" (established) stock.
I'm continuing to work on stock for our spring show so we can bring a little light to our SoCal folk when we get there. I often feel like it's not much, when we're at home building, and am wrong every tour. Art will always matter, and it's all we have to offer, right now, so here we go.
#playing with some exciting new #leather over here! I am hoping to get some new pouches up and running this week.

Playing silly bluesky games. Loved is the wrong tense, btw. #abracadabra #cartoons #dontknowmyownstrength

#art in progress here, foundations of #fashion ! I'm #cozy in the #innerbeastleather den doing the #makersgonnamake thing, waiting for #spring (help, help, the pile of #WIP looms!)
I got distracted, ok? 😅 It's really good and my thumbs are mad, so time for a break.

Good morning, humanoids! Coming at you live from the workshop, some wearable #art in progress. Kudos to my spiffy phone for the photo.

#innerbeastleather , plugging away at The Work! It feels good to be back in the shop.
