Thank you for the compliment!  That is a cool way to tie it off, I think I'll try that tonight!!  Thanks!

Oh wow, thank you!  I never thought to use glue!   Those would be perfect, and possibly even beads. 

What would be the best glue for that?

Hello!   I'm not a leather worker by any means, but I use lacing in my metal art pieces.  I'm trying to find an aesthetically pleasing way to "tie off" and finish lacing that doesn't look like my kindergarten class did a project.  For example, we have small ornaments and short of just tying the two ends in a Knot, I don't know how else to go about it.   They are heavier than a normal jewelry piece, so I am worried that clamps might not work?

I would also like to incorporate heavier leather lacing to hang some of our plaques, and again.. the only thing I can think of is tying a knot or double Knot larger than the holes... and tying knots in leather is no small feat for me.  

 

Help!
