Make an EXPENSIVE Leather Bracelet from Scraps
Last week we asked for leathercraft project recommendations and you delivered in the comments! So this week we're starting off with Kelly's suggestion - a modern, minimalist leather cuff.
Our take on the leather cuff features no closure at all. We use a solid copper core and wrap that in beautiful tumbled leather, securing the leather with a hand sewn saddle stitch. This design detail results in a very minimal and low profile design that fits many different fashion styles - and they fit many different wrist sizes as well with their squeeze-to-fit design. These Leather Bracelets are seen at many high end designer stores for lots of money, but you can make your own with scraps from your workshop!

I make something like that myself ..but with exotic leather .. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING what you made there ..I will definitely make one myself and use the same material like you. ..

For those who doesn’t want to waste their thread, you can measure on the actually length and times 4 of the measured length. Useful for those who have limited resources.

@Cssfiend 3 года назад

depends on the thickness of the work, 5 or 6 is safer

@chrisanderson6566 3 года назад

I checked the cost of my thread. It costs me $0.01 per yard of thread. But it's a good thing to know

no offence but you sound REALLY snobby

@guyg5702 2 года назад

@@thomashorton8302 Unless one is using real gold, or some other exotic thread, any leather worker concerned about the cost of thread is in the wrong business / hobby. It is literally the cheapest component of any project.

With your videos I'm getting closer to being a real life version of my ffxiv character. I already picked up goldsmithing and weaving, and now I can add leatherworking to that list :)

@deborahdanhauer8525 3 года назад

That is really beautiful, but if I used copper, I would cut holes in the leather so the copper would show. If I wanted a solid leather bracelet, I would use a less expensive metal as a blank. Loved the room at both ends to allow for movement and the sandpaper trick.

@andreatthatsme 3 года назад

Woo hoo 🙌 Good Eric. 💘 love this. Thank you Kelly for the suggestion.

@cdnbikerchick8762 3 года назад

As others have said, annealing your copper will make it easier to form, which you can do with a leather mallet. It also helps to fully form both of your curved ends first, and then move to forming around the top of the wrist. The ends won't be as work hardened that way and will be easier to manipulate. Nice work!

@michaelpcooksey5096 3 года назад

OK, I tried your idea and liked the experimentation. Hardware stores here do not have copper so used salvaged copper pipe, flattened it and ground edges till it separated into two pieces... one sort of a hammered shiny the other a sort of black residue. Anyway, it worked. Did one at 7" the other at your suggested 5 1/2" long. Also tried doing lacing on one. Can send you a snap shot if you'd like to see them. Fun...

@anantharamba6832 3 года назад

Firstly thanks again for this amazing tutorial, with ideas to innovate . So pleasant to know that you have stitching irons that speak to you! "They are not going to like it if you hit the copper strip". Wonderful to watch how the tools become an extension of the hand, and the hand at the end of the man! Everything really cool.

@devinchong442 3 года назад

I made a bracelet form out of some 2x4 and you can tap the ends flat against that (or any roundish jar, or whatever) with a rawhide or plastic mallet. A piece of leather over the end should prevent any marks on the finished piece. Great little project!
