Another batch of antler measures
« on: January 31, 2025, 04:46:58 AM »
Here is my latest batch of powder measures made from antler. Some times folks ask for a particular color on a measure. I've been using the same mixture recipe for quite a few years now and I never am sure what color a piece of antler will turn out. Antler is harder to predict than wood on how it's going to take a dye at least for me.
