Here at last!!!! Some magic paddle pics. Though I still say the magic is the hands of the wielder, not the paddle. This is what it started as, a plain piece of wood. See, nothing magic whatsoever. Here are a few pics of it completed.
This is obviously the side I didn’t cover with the suede leather. This side is wonderfully stingy, but then again, I like wood.
Here’s the side with the suede covering. It’s more thuddy than stingy, and quite welcome after a few bites from the wood side. It's been well used and already starting to show it.
I’m not thrilled with how I finished the handle on it, but it’s what Musicman suggested, and he is the one who uses the handle, not me. If we ever decide to change it, it is just a matter of pulling out the tacks.
And for some size perspective, these.
This is the side of it, it took 73 brass tacks to fasten the leather covering. As you can see, my line of tacks wasn’t exactly straight. I’m calling it the rustic look.
The leather started out looking like this.
This is the same leather I used to make our flogger.
I used suede yarn to wrap the handle on the flogger.
So a bit rustic yes, but at least they match. There is also something about the fact that we made these ourselves. Not touched by other human hands, expressly for the purposes of spanking, not high jacked from other purposes, that I find incredibly erotic.
Oh they are both GORGEOUS. And I'm sure quite magic!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, they both feel like magic, lol :)And the flogger has the most intoxicating smell, bonus!!!
DeleteBeautiful and functional! Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteThanks, we are :)
DeleteAND you don't have to worry about teens intercepting brown packages!LOL
ReplyDeleteBTW I think you did a great job decorating.
I get those too, heeheeheee. But these are definitely special for me :)
DeleteVery very nice. Like joey said beautiful and functional, what more can you ask.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I love it when my DIY projects actually produce something pleasing. These are both quite pleasing, lol :)
DeleteOooooh. I like them alot. Very beautiful and I really do love the idea that you made it yourself especially for spanking. Very nice. :)
ReplyDeleteThe fact that we made them does add something to it for me :)
DeleteVery nice, i think its all the more satisfying when made yourself.
ReplyDeletex
It really is, at least for me :)
DeleteYeah, if I liked wood, maybe I would agree that it looks good, but man, that looks like it is really stingy!
ReplyDeleteIt is, lol. Good thing I like wood :) The contrast between the sting of the wood and the thud of the leather side is really very stimulating for me. He reads me well and can easily take me right to the edge, then with just a flick of the wrist change it. Gives me the shivers just thinking about it, heeheehee.
DeleteBrilliant! Thanks for the pictorial instructions, I may get Davey to make a flogger like that, it looks lovely! We will give the paddle a miss though, if I have anything to do with it!! xxx
ReplyDeleteThe flogger is heaven, and so easy to make. Yeah, the paddle probably isn't for everyone, but, I like it, a lot, lol ;D
DeleteThey look like lots of fun! Thanks for sharing with us, faerie! :) I hope they treat you well.
ReplyDeleteThey have so far :)
DeleteYep. Those are awesome. I like the them of using the same pieces for multiple toys, and of making them yourself. There's a binding there, more than just the suede yarn, that pulls it all together and makes them that much more special. Bravo.
ReplyDeleteStay SINful
Mr. AP
Thank you, there is definitely something special about making them ourselves. And, I do love when one of my projects is successful, that isn't always the case, lol.
DeleteI think I have some of those pieces of wood lying around the fireplace. Maybe I should reconsider their fate.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you should, not every gift has to be gold :) I loved getting the gift of a paddle. Knowing he made that paddle with his own hands really does add something extra to it. Something I can't quite define, but it's nice.
DeleteThey look ouchy but lovely. You did a great job. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Ronnie

The paddle definitely packs some punch, but I'm sorta partial to the sting :) He wields it quite well, too.
DeleteThe flogger is just pure heaven.
They are lovely! You've done a fantastic job!
ReplyDeletePK
Thanks, I'm pretty proud of how they turned out. Like I said above, that doesn't always happen with my little projects, lol.
Deletei'm a sucker for sets. its nice that you have a matching paddle and flogger.
ReplyDeleteoh and since i'm back, i came to fetch my unicorn. i need some TLC at the moment. he'll be able to gimme some i hope.
I kind like the way that worked out too, with them matching.
DeleteHe's well fed and ready to give some TLC. {{{Hugs}}}
Thanks for sharing the pictures, faerie, and kudos to Musicman for making it and you for the suede work! Nicely done!
