Leather

My dad found this old leathering set while sorting through the garage one day.
It was my great grandmothers.
It's quite spectacular.


It even had paper notes written by her,
which I thought was special, considering we have never met...
it was almost as if we were.

So yesterday I attempted to leather.
I tried a few jewelry pieces that I thought I could attach to a necklace or earrings.


But there is so much I don't know or remember.
And man it's a super loud craft,
which means my normal craft hour when the little ones are asleep
just won't do.


But I really did love it.
It reminded me of being in summer camp.
Leathering was always one of my favorite crafts,
besides stained glass window making.


Happy Tuesday!
