Wrist straps-oh my!

I've been working on a bunch of wrist straps over the last couple of weeks. They are now in the shop and I have about 10 more in the works!! I'm trying to get ready for my maternity break which is coming up in December as we welcome our new baby boy. Please let me know if you are interested in any custom orders in the next couple of weeks. Also, I'm thinking of some November specials. Maybe free shipping for anyone that reads my blog? Maybe free shipping and 20% off for blogging about my straps? What other rewards would you like to see next month? Give me some ideas and I may use yours!!

New Wrist Straps!

Here's a couple of new wrist straps that just got finished up last night. I just added them to the shop!


Also, a new full size strap!

More wrist straps are in the works and headed to the shop soon!!!

New Style

Little new take on the full camera straps that are already in the shop. I have several new straps that I will be posting over the next couple of days but wanted to draw special attention to the new "mini-full" strap! Its still the exact same size and length, but just smaller fabric segments which equals more fabrics overall! This orange and blue one is one of my favorite straps that I have. Guess that's just the Gator in me!!!!!


Also a couple more new wrist straps. I promise I am working on some for the shop but the full straps are taking up most of my time right now. All of these have been special orders but wanted you to see some other samples of the new style

Last Day!

Make sure you head on over to Mary Janes and Galoshes to enter the give a way!!! It ends today so enter enter enter!!!!

Wrist Strap Re-do!

OK, So I must admit I haven't been totally pleased with the wrist strap design for some time now but am just now getting a chance to revamp it a bit. First, like my bigger straps, I've added padding to make them a little bit more cushy. Next, I decided to use a different connection than I had previously been using. I opted to go with something that is a bit more commercially made and work it into my strap rather than continue to totally make my own connection. I felt that this was an important choice because these cameras are expensive and valued by everyone! I figured that there was a much higher chance of something failing on a hand made loop connection rather than one that had been made for commercial use. The third change you will see is I am no longer using the black leather to finish the strap. It just wasn't working for me and I think that the alternative stitching still finishes it off nicely.


Here's two that I just completed in the new style for a very good friend of mine. She's already doing her Christmas shopping and got these for her mother and sister in laws! They will make perfect gifts. Even though I've redesigned the strap and added some extra touches, the price will remain the same for the time being. I am going to work on perfecting the strap and getting some up in the shop for a while before any price changes occur.

***On a holiday note, I just wanted to keep everyone up to date on what my schedule is looking like so you can make your shopping plans accordingly. I know its hard to even thing about the holiday season (especially since its still in the 90's here everyday!!) but its coming up-FAST! I am expecting #2 December 25th. Seriously:) We're having a scheduled c-section so he will be here about a week a head of time if he decided to cooperate and stay put. We all know how well plans, pregnancies and new born babies cooperate. Due to his arrival, I will be unavailable to take custom orders starting December 1st until at least mid January. I'll let you know if this time line changes at all but I don't want to accept an order and have him decide to come early! I'm making sure that I have plenty of straps in the shop over the next couple of months and will be able to ship everything that is listed in the shop during that time. The shipping times may be 2 business days but I will try to keep up as best as possible. I just wanted to let you all know that won't be available for custom orders during this time.***
