PAT!!! I KNEW IT!!! I KNEW IT!!! That IS a Talenti Gellato container!!!!! My favorite is the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup. It is the only Talenti I eat!!!

[@gotstyledesigns]

LOL You caught me...great gelato isn't it?

[@ktgodwin100]

@@gotstyledesigns it is the BEST. I won't even look at Häagen-Dazs chocolate peanut butter anymore.

Very nice tutorial Pat! Congratulations on your first upload! ~Marilyn

[@gotstyledesigns]

Thank you so much Marilyn!

[@juliegrenfell5371]

Thanks so much for this video! I would love to see how to go about finishing off decorative knots to smoothly hide the ends and secure the knot so it doesn't unravel, especially when around a round braid. Thanks!

[@gotstyledesigns]

Thank you! I plan on doing some of that down the road a bit so stay tuned.

[@rogerclubb8893]

Great job Pat! Love it. Very informative easy to follow. Looking forward to more!

[@gotstyledesigns]

Thank you Roger!

Thanks so much for such an informative video, can't wait to see more of your videos. I'd love to learn to lace like some of the things you made.

[@gotstyledesigns]

Thank you Peggy! I'll be coming up with a lot more videos.

Thank you Linda!

[@missycarter4177]

Great video! I think I'm going to try making a couple of these this week! :)

[@gotstyledesigns]

Go for it! They are pretty easy to make and very cost effective.

[@5gramdm]

Thanks for this video. I didn't even know about a conditioner for lace. Very informative and well explained video. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos. I'd like to know how you hide your ends and add more if needed in the middle of a project

[@gotstyledesigns]

You are welcome. I will have some of that info down the road. Next up will be splitting and beveling.

I was told that Ray Hole's rawhide cream was mostly Ivory soap.

[@mikeingram2434]

For the lard based soap are you using 4 ounces of grated soap or half of a 4 ounce bar? Thanks. Nice video. Subscribed.

[@gotstyledesigns]

Well this is so disgusting. You used to be able to get an 8 or 4 oz bar of Ivory soap. I just looked at a package of new Ivory soap and it is only 3.17 oz! So you will need almost a bar and a quarter. Kind of reminds me of the shrinking toilet paper and smaller packaging of everything. LOL Sorry this answer took so long but I thought I had previously answered this one. 4 oz is the answer.

Is there some bad in petroleum jelly? Is that why you don’t want it in your hands for a long time? I’m new to this. Thank you.

[@gotstyledesigns]

Because it's made from petroleum. I like more natural oils.

[@travisgroom6307]

hi there this is Travis of Rock'n T Leather Works.
Have you tried making draiding soap out of the white fiebings saddle soap mixed with the fiebings glycerine saddle soap?

[@gotstyledesigns]

I have tried numerous things but this is my favorite.
