LH19 Report post Posted January 10, 2022 Hello, I'm an aspiring leather goods designer from Melbourne, Australia, currently prototyping products, hand crafting everything myself. I thoroughly enjoy working with leathers of vibrant colours, and I thought I'd share some pictures of the process. It's really great to be here and admire all your work. The talent and skill on this forum is far beyond my imagination. Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leatherthresher Report post Posted January 14, 2022 Hello LH19, Welcome here on the leatherworker-forum. These colours are indeed beautiful and as you say vibrant, indeed. Is the top picture showing the colouring of the flesh side of a leather piece? Interesting. Wish you all the best of luck with your work, much enjoyment with it.

Best wishes for 2022 Thank you, I've been working with leather for a few years and I'm not particularly talented, so just keep at it and you'll get there. All the things in those photos can be achieved with the right tools and a bit of practice. Best wishes for you too! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
