Custom Order #30: Purple and Green Skull

A variation on the skull + crossbones wallets available in my shop, this one features that design with a purple and green color scheme. Hooray!



Custom Order #29: MEGA WALLET! RAWR!

For this custom order I was asked to create a wallet featuring the skull + crossbones zebra print design with even more card pockets and space. Thus, the MEGA WALLET was born! This was something that I had wanted to try for quite some time. The template was based on my checkbook, but with side-by-side card slots and double "hidden" pockets. Just try to not fit everything in this one, folks.




Custom Order #28: Bunny Bunny

For this custom order, I was asked to create a wallet featuring a bunny logo, not unlike the one for that big famous magazine that shall not be named here. It was a new, fun design to try and turned out a bit better than I even expected. 



Custom Order #27: Bug me

A ladybug had been on my list for quite some time, so when I was asked to create a ladybug wallet similar to my Bumble Bee wallet, I was super excited for the excuse to try something new! The wallet turned out better than I hoped and is now one of the ones I keep in stock.



Custom Order #26: Trade me!

This custom order was created for a trade with Joy's Jewels because her typewriter key bracelets are just irresistible! She wanted small wallets for children, and I was more than happy to oblige!

Custom Order #18: Moz

Recently I was asked to create a custom trifold wallet featuring Morrissey. If you don't know who that is, you best educate yourself! Anyway, I was given an unholy number of images to work with....so I used them all. And I love how it turned out!

Custom Order #17: Blue Meanies

This was a fun one. I was commissioned to create a wallet for a member of the biker gang the Blue Meanies. I was given their official logo, slogan and a dancing, winged skeleton because, well, it's just cool. I made up the triple-skeleton image a la Grateful Dead for the inside of the wallet, and was able to match the font for the slogan with the font used on their logo. We're both pretty pleased with how it turned out.

Custom Order #16: Fitter Happier

I. Love. Radiohead. A friend of mine dug this image up online and thought it would make a PERFECT Radiohead trifold wallet. I almost wanted to keep the end result for myself...


Custom Order #15: The Crow

This wallet was commissioned, forcefully, by a friend whose wallet was, literally, falling apart at the seams. A wallet is officially no good when it starts dropping all of your stuff. ANYWAY. The dude is a big fan of The Crow and gave me the cover from his DVD to cut up for the wallet. Here's how it turned out:

Custom Order #14: Fly Fry, Fly!

So Futurama is awesome. We know this. So, it's not surprising that, since my shop was all out of Futurama-themed items, that I was contacted to create one! The result is one of my favorite wallets that I have ever made. The buyer asked me if I could come up with something purple and told me her favorite character was Fry. So I whipped out my purple duct tape, and clipped an awesome picture of Fry from one of my Futurama graphic novels. Ta-da!






Custom Order #13: Purple Argyle

I love argyle. I can't help it. In 6th grade you couldn't cleave me from my argyle sweater vest (whatever, I wish I STILL had it) and my current cell phone has an argyle theme. It's good stuff. So, naturally, it's inevitable that I would one day combine my love of argyle and my love of duct tape into one fancy concoction...and so I have!

With a few different color schemes up in my shop, I was contacted to specifically make an argyle trifold wallet, based on this design, but replacing the pink with purple. It was a pretty great idea. So I made it for her!

Custom Order #12: Ron Jeremy. Yes. THAT Ron Jeremy.

This might be one of the funniest wallets I've ever been asked to create, and I love it. My friend's boyfriend requested a simple, smaller duct tape wallet to replace his bulky, flashy hot pink one (not made by me). And he wanted Ron Jeremy on it. We opted for porn star stud Ron, rather than his fat, icky older self, and think it turned out at an extreme level of awesome.

 
 

Custom Order #11: Radiohead

Ok. This is hands down one of the COOLEST wallets I have EVER made. I wanted to keep it. My boyfriend wanted to keep it. Seriously. It almost came to fisticuffs. Luckily the dude who got it loved it...as he well should.


 
 
 

Not-Quite-Custom Order #10: Smurfs Purse

For one reason or another, I never seem to take pictures of the items that I make for myself. But apparently I had my thinkin' cap on back in August when I concocted this fun little purse. It's a prototype for a new, smaller, purse design that I hope to have in my shop soon. I carried it a LOT over the summer and got a lot of compliments on it, which is always nice.



Custom Order #9: Bunch of Dudes

Yet another custom order for a friend of mine! She handed me a bunch of old magazines and asked me to pick out photos of a bunch of her favorite male celebs (her favorites being JT and Rupert Grint) and put them on a wallet for her. Mission accomplished.


   

Not-Quite-Custom Order #8: Garbage Pail Kids "Antsy Nancy"

Anyone else out there remember the Garbage Pail Kids? I had a bunch of the oversized sticker cards as a kid (got them out of my 2nd grade teachers prize box!). Anyway, they still make some of the cards, which I picked up on impulse a few years back. I rediscovered them in my stash of stuff and thought they'd be PERFECT for some wallets. I was right.

This trifold wallet went to my sister, who has the same awesome taste as me (I carry a similarly colored mini version). Another mini wallet version, Max Wax, is available in the shop.

Custom Order #6: Superjail!

Back in July I was comissioned to create a wallet with images from the [adult swim] show Superjail! I was given the images to work with, and here's how it turned out!
