Through the magic of Facebook's social features, I discovered Lee Tougas's custom camera straps. Lee takes photos and transfers them to needlepoint canvas, then stitches and finishes the design into a camera strap or belt. Neat! I think anyone can see Lee's photos at the Pinnell Custom Leather FB page whether you have a Facebook account or not.

Aren't Lee's straps gorgeous! I met Lee through Chuck and am in awe of his work. I would love to have him do a strap for my camera but I have grand aspirations of doing one myself. ;)
ReplyDeleteLucky you! Did you see any of Lee's straps in person? We all know photographs aren't good at conveying needlework. You know, you could have him do a camera strap and do one yourself and switch them out occasionally....
