I would like to attempt to make the following tote bag as a first project/gift.
http://www.whippingpost.com/collections/totes/products/the-vintage-tote-bag
I contacted the site and found out that they use a 5/6 oz veg tan leather, and copper rivets.
Here is where the guidance comes in...
In being new, i need to know the following:
Where should i source the leather from?
How do I finish to obtain these results/color?
Where do i purchase the hardware/stitching material?
Also,
anything that you can think of that may help me in the process of creating this bag
Thank you all, and what a terrific forum.
