Thefynn Report post Posted November 18, 2018 Hi guys! I just recently got into leather crafts and decided to make myself a bracelet with the rainbow flag. I used a piece of 3 mm thick full grain leather and some leather strings which seemed to be dipped in some paint (these were the only ones I could find in the 6 rainbow colors that I wanted). The holes I punch with a 3 mm punch (strings are 2 mm). I dyed the leather with some RØD dark brown dye and finished it with a leather balm we had lying around. The 6 strings were sewed on each end. I glued the fabric under the leather to prevent the strings from tearing out. To top it all off, I installed a 12,5 mm snap at the end. I think for my very first leather work it turned out really good! (I have experiences in sewing but not leather work) Let me know what you think!
