I've never worked with leather before, but I got the idea to cover a half pint sized glass whiskey bottle with it. I'd like to be able to easily remove the empty bottle and replace it with a fresh one using a flap or maybe an open bottom.
I'd like a nice snug fit, it needs to fit in a pocket. I've seen knife sheaths that are kinda shrink wrapped. What is that called, and how is it done?
Also I'm not sure how to join the leather. I was thinking of beveled edges and adhesive, or maybe laces. Is there a better way?
If you have any thoughts, ideas, comments or advice I'd like to read it.
