In this video, I’m wearing one of our own “Tool-O-Rama Anvil” aprons that we designed and created from Zazzle. Our new “Tool-O-Rama” Anvil design features everything a metalsmith might want or need in their studio. As metalsmiths and professors, we’ve been creating each individual tool graphic over the years to embellish our studios and handouts. Just for fun, we made this composite image and printed it on some work aprons for ourselves. We like it so much, we thought we would share it with everyone! You can even order one for yourself or as a gift: www.zazzle.com/store/jamesthurman
