HP, That is what I wanted you to say, that is how we find why each of us do what we do. For self, and I am the least experenced here the more I find out, I hope the less mistakes i make! It like the other post I started, I think we all take a little design from something we have seen!!
Andd then make our own rendestion of it! My new propject is the slowest of any I have have work on so far, i want to fine tune my skills, and the only mway for me is to slow down and ask more questions!
Now I think that a Holster belt, has to flow with the holster! I have been trying to buy a pair of napkin holders for my Pompell rig, but I have been out bit on every set I liked! I am not going to give $25.00 for somrthing that might not fit! So in my bordem, i cut out my belt and i had bought a proto type barb wire stamp set of ebay, and stamped the top and bottom of the belt. On my holster I want to use a double border, so i spent the morning stamping 6" long strips with differnt stamps, trying to decide what will flow with the rest. i like flowers and rosettes, i had been looking at plin napkin holders with a little floral scrolling, if I have no luck, I have some 20 ga alumiun, that I will make me a pattern out of a cut up pepsi can, i will mark it, and find me a lite flat floral patter, and take my pieces of Alumiun, and have a lazer engraver litely engave my pieces.
I hope that some one else plus you HP, jumps in and tell me there thoughts!
