Members Tallbald Posted June 24, 2014 Members Report Posted June 24, 2014 In the three years I've been making holsters and such, all my leather coloring has been by submerging a finished or nearly finished project in vinegaroon or homemade walnut husk stain. It's almost always been satisfactory. Now I find myself wanting to try commercial dyes so I can restrict the areas dyed, like when I make a lined holster (brown outer layer with natural lining).. Would I be wrong to cut the parts out and dye the desired pieces before even beginning to glue and sew my holster? Maybe this is a no-brainer but I thought I would ask the experts about any pitfalls in doing it that way. Thanks. Don Quote
