Hey there just thought id share some pics .
Ive been useing my dragonfly so much i decided to make a
Dedicated wallet .
With my own humble crafting skills i came up with this from thin leather .
Used vinagaroon dye ( really like vinagaroon its awesom !) .
Anyways its super slim just for the dragonfly and a few folded bills ....

Ha! I thought, obviously they can't tan insect hide, what is he using that resembles it?

Very cool. For the 'groon, did you dissolve steel wool in vinegar? I'll probably keep using dye, but the chem action with the vinegroon looks pretty good and even.
 
The wallet is a little worn in and dirty in the pic .
Yeah just left some steel wool in a jar for a week .
Its actually a really dark black and very even .. Really easy method . Also it wont transfer to anything else .
Made some friction sheaths with it too , i really like it .
Smells pretty bad the first couple of days , i used my own beeswax olive oil cream to buff it and seal it . That helps get rid of smell too .
Edges are rubbed with straight beeswax and burnished .
