A few leather bracelets

Wasn’t really sure what the wife would like, so I just made a whole bunch of options…


3 - 4oz vegetable tanned leather

Note: snap installation still pending.

Wow those look awesome

Leather bracelets are on my list!
I don’t think mine will be nearly as nice as yours!
Fantastic!

Lots of neat patterns!
Maybe magnets instead of snaps on the more fragile looking ones to reduce wear and tear?

My choice would be ALL of them - and keep 'em coming.

I would just leave more space uncut on the snap ends–only cutting about 5-6" of area, and leave the area for snaps big enough so the snap is on solid leather & far enough away from any cutouts to minimize chance of leather tearing or stretching when you unsnap it… But also for the more open/weblike styles, long prong snaps maybe nicer than duradot, and also less force needed to undo those… (and you can have them w/ a ring, vs. a big snap cap showing–but if leather is too thick for those, can skive the ends a bit, or just use “baby dot” snaps (size 20 vs 24).

Some beautiful choices for her!

Great work. She will love them.

They’re all great and I especially love the turquoise and green one next to it. Good spouse too; when in doubt, keep her happy and just make one of everything! :smile:

She is going to love them : )

Very nice, she will keep them all.

great color on those! would you care to share what dye you are using?

These are gorgeous! I love the patterns!

Love the designs! Question for you - do you do anything to remove the charring from the leather? I’ve been experimenting with some intricate designs on leather, but am worried about the char.

It didn’t seem to be a problem with this thin of material. I just smacked them over the edge of the workbench a few times to knock free the loose bits of char, then proceeded onwards.

Outstanding! If there are any she doesn’t like, I call dibs! :smiley:

Do you mind sharing the paint/Dye you use? I bought some paint for some hand tooled earrings but it make the leather very stiff. Looking for a better alternative. Thanks so much! These are beautiful!!
