Jonesing for a 3-pack from Wyvern Leatherworks

**Chrissss** · 19th June 09, 08:56 AM

I've managed to acquire a couple sporrans from Donnie @ Wyvern Leatherworks, and also commissioned him to make a purse for my wife a year-and-a-bit ago.

My wife just loves the purse, so she had the idea of having Donnie make a purse for her twin sister for her upcoming birthday. Her sister loves dragons and Celtic art, so I found some artwork on-line that my wife thought was ideal and Donnie was commissioned for yet another project.

Little did my wife know but the commission was for 2 of these purses, with mirror-image artwork since they are mirror-image twins. And I liked the pattern enough to have Donnie make a sporran as well. I think it will be a great casual "off-to-the-pub" sporran.

Donnie just finished the 3 items and sent a photo of the finished goods this A.M. and they will be on their way north shortly.

More pics when they arrive.

Funny story there...

I met my wife's sister first. She was dating this fellow and I was dating his sister. Several months after splitting up with this girl, my future wife attended a dance at Royal Roads Military College (one of the Canadian versions of WestPoint or Annapolis) where I was an Officer Cadet.

I greeted her with the often used line "I know I've seen you before" ...

I have said it before, and I say it again.

Donnie doesn't just make nice accessories, Donnie makes wearable, practical, useful works of art!

Those are awesome!
