My second piece of leather work....not so sure if I will add a clasp or leather strap to keep flap from opening. Whats your thought.

A clasp would look good, especially a bronze one. If you use a strap, you might just run it through a loop on the body of the case. With time, and use, the flap might do just fine without any extra assistance.

Might be a real pain to try to stitch a loop on there assembled.

I think you did a really nice job, especially for a second project. I can see why you didn't design a closure into the project from the beginning. Nice clean lines, no desire to clutter it up.

I like it.

That's a lovely case. What Roger said, though - you might find it easier to take it apart to put the closure on there. Believe me, I've done the same thing. It's.... a vocabulary exercise.
