7 Scrap Leather Projects 

I have put this video forward for a competition in my leather club best of luck son.

I like that you aren’t pushing products and you are making what you want with what you have! Not my original idea, but I made a ring using leather and a doll clothes buckle .

Thank you for the great ideas. I just tanned my first hide, a gifted elk hide. Now I have a lot of leather and no leather skills to start with. These are perfect for me to start with. 👍

A HELPFUL HINT: When punching holes in leather with a rotary punch as in the above video, the crafter should put a piece of scrap leather under the project leather & then punch the hole, piercing both pieces of leather. When doing this, the crafter will hear a certain sound that reveals penetration through at least the project leather. The project leather then has a clean-cut hole.

Some awesome tips to minimize waste, great ideas.

Love the rings

anyone else drooling over that pile of leather?

Thank you so much for the projects to keep me busy. Very cool.

Good use of scrap material

Hello! I'm from Brazil. You made a short video but with many easy and enjoyable projects to learn and do. Thanks for the videos or the PDF templates. From here in Brazil my desire for success and that every day I can learn more and more that beautiful craft. Take care!

great ideas, thank you very much for the video!

A progressive effort toward a success

ANOTHER HELPFUL HINT: When sharpening leather shears, I use a large piece of Reynold's Aluminum Foil and with the shears, cut as many narrow strips of the foil as possible. This method eliminates having to have this need to be remedied by a professional blade sharpener.

Excellent video, to stimulate use of scraps---especially when time is available and nothing much else to do. Will definitely help in developing own ideas for scrap usage,by viewers. Well done.thank you

Thank you so much !!! I needed this video!! Take care and stay safe my friend !!

Bravo, vieja.

ANOTHER HELPFUL HINT: When cleaning the crud from a cocobolo wood power leather burnisher, the crafter can fold a paper towel into a 2" X 2" square and moderately dampen it with denatured alcohol, hold it firmly against the cocobolo burnisher and then, turn-on the power switch. Depending on the amount of crud on the burnisher, the paper towel should be able to clean it, "slick as a whistle" in a very short amount of time.

Great video

I really like leather works

Great video for me - beginner

Awesome idea..thanks

Thank you very much for sharing these great projects. (I am a new subscriber.) You have very easy to follow tutorials and nice quality to your end creations. Thank you again for sharing your ideas.

I gather scraps of leather and other fabrics that I find when people throw away leather chairs or couches I will cut sections or when I go to the junk yard I’ll cut up a seat. I’ve gathered some real nice leather for just investing time.

When will you make another video it looks like you have vanished.

Nice. I've recently picked up leather craft I love it

Exelentes ideas,felicidades.

clean

Awesome video I mainly been making wallets and bic lighter holders with scraps

This was very nice. I’m glad I came across your channel. I have been leatherworking for several years but I’m always learning and looking for new ideas especially for my scraps. Thank you very much. I’m subscribing to your channel. Much luck to you and happy crafting!

I like sunglasses case..

Nice job. Happy to give your 1000th thumbs up.

Cool! Thanks

I got some leather samples from.my mom, when they bought a new sofa. Now I know what I will do with it!!

Hi! I have a question... I want to make coasters from scrap leather. But........ do I have to give the leather some kind of finish or other treatment so it keeps pretty with wet soda glasses and hot coffee mugs?

Great stuff, thanks for sharing!

I like your style! These simple projects give me something to practice on with the myriad of scraps that I have! Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm subscribing... :)

Fantastic ideas and great video! I thought your use of commentary and music was very good - very entertaining, AND making the projects available at no cost - you "da man"! Keep up the good work!

Loved it! Do you know what can I make with smaller pieces of leather? i need to make objects that can be used more than decoration and applied for home supplies. Thank you.

Where can i get that paper

Where do you get your leather ? Is there a trick to get cheap leather to start practicing without puting a lot of money on a material i'm not sure I like to use.

what thickness did you use in this video?

Great projects. What type of paper do you use for printing?

Thank you for this tutorial. I am just starting to learn how to make things with leather and this looks like a great place to start. Do you have anything for a cell phone cover that folds over like a wallet maybe? Just thought I would ask. :-)

Nice design sir I have interest to make like this

Good job and this is nice video.

good stuff

where do you guys get your metal snaps for projects?

Muito bom. Posta mais vídeos.

Great vid! Where do I buy one of your guitar pick holders?

I like the leather magnet money clip project, but to those watching… do yourself a favor and make it a clip. I can’t tell you how many parking garage tickets and hotel room key cards I’ve erased with my old magnetic money clip! LOL Take it from experience! :-)

thanks

Well well well, when I put on ma leather, and rock to sum Metallica, Delta Parole, Foo Fighters or the Smashing Pumpkins I feel like I can do anything in the whole wide world.

Aladdin + Moses (prince of Egypt) = You 😁😁

Great ideas, but you skip through all the "teaching parts!"

Magnets wipe your cards magnetic strips and chips. Otherwise nice vid.

Nice but video was too complicated and sped up there were multiple things happening at once.

Leer restjes

I like your ideas, but damn pro, you need to learn to burnish your leather.

1:50 so has anyone else realized that the magnet in the magnetic card/ money clip, is probably going to play hell with your credit cards ? good luck going through re-issued cards like mad money !

Extremely bad quality of goods at the end

What size thickness do I use?

Nice design sir I have interest to make like this
