Learn Leatherwork With Minimalist Wallet Project

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

My name is Lionel, I'm new to the forum and to leather work :)

I'd like to make my own wallet following the design pictured below.

How to form the folds for the wallet to stay folded up at rest?
What nice alternative to the Horween Shell Cordovan for first tries would you suggest? What thickness should I use?

How to finish edges?

Thanks a lot guys :)

Lionel

Wet the leather then let it dry back to almost the same color as when you started, fold and set a weight on them and let dry. They should stay closed then if they don't stay as closed as you want they will over time in your pocket.
