CUSTOM GUITAR STRAPS
This custom designed guitar strap will be on display at various times at Ellis Island Immigration Museum through August 2011. We created this all leather custom guitar strap with kidskin overlays and airbrushed elements. As always with our custom guitar straps, we started with naked leather, which we dyed a rich brown. The Lady Liberty herself was created with liquid copper applied to kidskin, then oxidized with our own secret oxidizing serum. She was then painstakingly cut from the kidskin and layered for dimension. We used liquid copper for the torch as well, oxidized to varying degrees, and embellished it with oxidized hardware. David airbrushed the flag, sky, and fireworks and added more dimension by shading Lady Liberty. Bruk sewed all these tiny little leather pieces down, with her usual perfection, and we backed the strap with a rich golden suede.
