Just crafting. . .

Ok so I've been on a leather crafting kick lately, once I started I just had a ton of ideas.  It's been quite a while since I did the braids so I was surprised how easily it came back.  I am just using up off-cuts, so making as many things as I can whatever size they turn out to be. 

I was kind of surprised I managed to get 2 chokers, an anklet, and a bracelet out of a smallish piece.  My problem now is I'm running out of snaps and need to go shopping.  I do like the look of the rhinestones in the center of the braided piece, but I think I'm going to step it up and make some that are a bit more decorative too.
Plus I am still making the infinity knots, I am going with the 10 ring version because I like it better.  I am also doing solid colored knots and then using multiple colors in the bracelet instead of using multiple colors in the knots themselves.  

I am hopeful that I will have enough of them to make the new listing in the Etsy shop soon, for both the decorated chokers and the infinity knot bracelets.
