Here's what ARIES got. A new tooled armguard, cut with a Celtic design in honor of his Celtic heritage. Heavy duty and long enough for his long arms. This was shot before the cords were put on it. I rigged it like the ones from Three Rivers.

And a tooled notebook, cut with a Fleur de Lis, a pretty common design here in the far south end of Louisiana, as French occupancy is the basis of much of our local culture. This little book is re-fillable with those little composition books you can get at most any school supply aisle in the stores.

Yes, there are some flaws in the leather......lots of my projects are made from scrap and offcuts I buy in big boxes at the local leather store.
Again, Merry Christmas Aries!!
