Hello everyone!


Here’s today’s project for your enjoyment: A walnut veneer and veg tan leather card wallet.


The wallet was laser engraved with a live hinge and laminated to a leather backing for additional support. The two pockets were then stitched in place. The brown pockets are finished with Fiebings chocolate dye, with the centre section left in its natural state. All leather components have been finished with carnauba cream and the walnut has had a light coat of tung oil.


Next time I’ll laser the stitch holes to mimic those of a pricking iron and awl to achieve a prettier stitch. I’ll be sure to share the results when I can.


Enjoy!
