Nice lacing pfr.
Like the wallet and the notes holder tab  :tu:
A wallet was my next project but I’m back at work and not much time for leatherwork at present. Still want to do one though.

Thanks!
 :cheers:

The wallet is my new carry, the 3 card pocket is a great addition to the previous design. Also got rid of the metal hook from version 1. It's awl leather now!

Another small project: Got a pair of Polaroid sunglasses some time ago. Had no case for them, so I made a leather pouch.

Not half bad, even if I do say so myself...

Great work! How did you made the stamp? Painted directly on the leather? Hot pressed onto it?

I made the stamps at home with a laser. And no its not painted on. Its burned into the leather.

Great idea. Is that like a decorative stud you’ve used? I haven’t seen anything like that before.  :tu:

Nice G.
Is that tooling on the last one? Nice!!
No. I make my own stamps out of special plastic. Cant remember the name of the product. Expensive though. I do a mirror image and embossed/press it into the leather. Bit tricky sometimes.

I though something like that. Paint would soak into the leather, wouldn't be so clear and crisp.

Thanks!

No, it's just a regular button, like you have in blazers or sports jackets. That's how the loop can stay in place.

Here's a better look. It his sewn into the leather. I made 4 small holes so as to have a cross stitch. Makes it more stable.

Thanks pfr. That’s a good idea.  :cheers:

Thanks G, never would have picked something that intricate to be a stamp.  :tu:
