The workshop is about 2 hours and will include everything you need to participate. Link in bio.

And tomorrow night. And the night after that. And the day after that….. until October. LFG!

Happy Opening Day! Join us for a unique, hands-on baseball making class on May 2nd ! No experience necessary. The workshop is about 2 hours and all tools and materials will be provided as William from guides you through the process to cover and hand sew your own baseball.

We’ll be using natural veg tan leather similar to the ball on the second slide. Custom thread colors and monogram/names are available and included with advance notice. No logos, sorry! Customizations will be pre-stamped on the leather and ready for you to sew in the classroom. Link to purchase is in the bio or follow the classroom links or notedcandles.com. Bring a friend!

Baseball is back!! See you in the classroom!

Couple of props for an upcoming book tour this spring. The inscription on the ball is dated 9/27/17, that’s nineteen17. Any guesses? Where my history people at?

Rough out, but just getting started

Let’s warm up with a little Carlton dance. Fresh Prints are reloading.

Custom baseball for the dear friend of a dear friend. If I’m doing the math right, I think that makes us friends.

Handmade from an old pair of boots. Each panel is cut from the side and back quarters retaining factory markings. The woven label was transferred from the back side of the tongue and sewn to the north panel on the ball. The salvaged tongue material was used on the box top. I love how the years of work and service have created burnished lines from the laces and creases and scuffs across the surfaces. Super cool project that calls for a big thank you to John for the opportunity. If this snow ever melts, I hope Eric has a chance to toss it around with his kids.

One of the great joys of my job is helping people celebrate the lives of loved ones. Some of those people have just arrived with tears of joy and others have left with tears of sadness. This ball, and four others like it, was made from a glove that was worn by a father and grandfather who left an indelible mark. He’s not around to play catch anymore, but his family can play catch with him wherever they are. For privacy reasons, I’ve omitted some of the cooler details here - like the large ink name that spans an entire panel, and his phone number below it. Other details, like the palm lining with a worn-in impression of his hand are evidence of a life well lived.
