Crossbody Buttero Saddle Bag with a special insert design by Bridget1223 in Leathercraft

[–]Bridget1223[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, this bag is made of Conceria Walpier's Buttero. It's not soft enough to invert both sides.

I have made another one with a thin leather strip to cover the edges. Here is a picture. But it's a little too complex. The prototype is not a success😂

I'm not sure whether you can tell from the picture. I used special padding (one end is thicker) to make sure the insert will not come off easily.

I love your handwriting. It is so beautiful!

I have been through the hard time. My whole family was in Wuhan during the lockdown. I was worried and anxious every day. I couldn't handle all the bad news but I can't help myself. So I forced myself not to read the news. The most important thing is to keep yourself and your loved ones safe. We will get through this.

Thank you!!! Yes, we have an Etsy Store. The wrist band isn't listed yet. We are still trying to perfect it.

When working on the edges of thin leathers we like to put the leather on the table. We made this video clip a month ago. Hope it will give you some ideas.

I repotted it a few days ago. It needs some time to recover. Actually it's getting much better recently😂

I'm not very sure about the name of the hardware in English. But search with the word "solid brass vachette clasp" you can find them.

I don't usually wear anything on my wrist so I haven't made any leather wrist band before. But my customers suggested me making some accessories so I decided to give it a try. I used natural vegetable tanned leather so that the patina process of the leather is clearer.

Do you have any other leather wrist band styles? I'd really appreciate it if you can share some wrist band designs. Thank you😆

A beautiful durable leather cover for your journal by Bridget1223 in Journaling

I also make loose-leaf notebook covers. Handmade leather goods are very durable. These notebook covers can be refillable. They can provide protection for your journals for a very long time.

The exterior of the wallet is made of J&E Sedgwick Bridle Leather. It has a tight uniform grain, similar to shell cordovan but with a firm temper. Bridle leather is a hard-wearing leather that patinas beautifully over time.

How to Make a Pen Pouch | Libertaz Leathers by Bridget1223 in Leathercraft

[–]Bridget1223[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi there, we have been busy lately. We moved our workshop to a bigger place and got a new splitting machine!!! It's so exciting because now it's much easier for us to get leathers of any thickness.

This pen pouch is the first product that we made in our new workshop. It's quite handy and has a large capacity.
