  • One of the most popular leather products to make and sell are handmade 5 pocket minimal leather wallets. Although they appear to be very simple to make, these leather wallets take a lot of time, effort, and care to get a high quality product. Leather working also requires an essential set of tools to plan, cut, tool, and finish the product, which can often be intimidating for people getting into leather working for the first time..
  • In this Skillshare course, we’ll go over all of the basic information that you need to get started with leatherworking. From the different types of leather that you can buy to all of the tools that we’ll need to make any leather product. We’ll go over what each tool is used for and I’ll demonstrate how they’re used as we make this 5 pocket minimal leather wallet together. As we go step by step through this course together, I’ll take you through each stage of creating the product and share tips and tricks that I've picked up during my time making leather products by hand..
