Really pleased with this wallet I made in secret for my son.

I got the plans from MakeSupply, adapted them slightly, then cut and stitched my way through to the finish.

As an escape puzzle game designer, I couldn’t resist putting a few little secrets in there too - some which are visible and others which are buried but discoverable.

I also added his initial in Trattoria font, burnished the edges, and sealed them in honey wax, which gives the wallet a really lovely scent.

If you are tempted by created some leatherwork, I’d highly encourage you to try this. I immediately had orders for more (especially after showing some of the discoverables)!
