Saying hi from far away

Recommended Posts

Hi!

I can't believe I did not find this forum earlier, but I'm really glad that I eventually stumbled upon it!

I have been leathercrafting for about 2 years now, and I just love it to the point that I hope I will eventually be able to start a shop and make a living out of it (how unoriginal, I know haha). Anyway, it started out when I decided that I wanted to make my own watchstrap, so I got myself a basic set of tools, grabed cut some leather from an old armchair and got at it!

Since then, I've bought many more tools, experimented with a few different leathers, and along the way I have tried different techniques while making many watchstraps, wallets, cardholders, cases, baby-shoes, and a couple handbags. I'll post my project in the "show off section" and link to it here later. My next projet will probably be a cigar case that a friend of mine requested.

Btw, English is not my first language, feel free to ask for details if I'm not clear :)

Looking forward to explore this forum!

Cheers,

Thank you, I appreciate both the welcome and the feedback haha!

You both create awesome pieces too, much more creative than mine. It makes me want to try carving, and I'll probably have a look around the forum regarding this very topic. I hope it does ton require too much drawing skills because it's not my forte.
