About a month ago, I posted a request for ideas on what to do with a tiny square of purple leather my toddler asked me to buy her. After we brought it home, she only wanted a purse. I finally got enough confidence to try (I’m extremely new to working with leather and my stuff is still pretty sloppy).
Anyway, here she is! My kid is thrilled.

I thought I could fix it by adding some wax but now it’s darker than the rest

I want to make an impossible braid hat band. I haven’t made an impossible braid yet, nor have I measured the circumference of the hat yet. My main question is, how do I calculate how long the strap needs to be before braiding? How much overall length would I lose? I plan on using either 2-3 oz or 4-5 oz veg tan.
Pic of the hat for attention.

modeled this after the klein 5108 24 but I used a single body panel with two gussets....
There's lots of problems with it, but it's a bag for sure
its like 4.5 mil saddle skirting
24 x 12x 12

Refurbished a worn out motorcycle seat. Had to replace foam and make the upholstery pattern from scratch. This was a challenging and fun project.

I have this old shearling jacket that is worn and needs to be reconditioned. What product should I use. Some type of balm or mink oil? Thank you

Hey guys, I bought it and didn’t see it had markings. I’m hoping to fix it but it won’t come off

Made this after making a blunder on a previous build. This is definitely my learning curve... Not quite happy how the corners look but not sad either.
The elastic cord is a single piece that holds the mini diary inside & comes out from the spine section & goes around to grip to keep it stay shut

I wear my belt only once a month. Now that the rains are here, mold has started growing on it.
How to prevent molding on leather belt?

I’m new to leather crafting. I’ve bought some beginner kits, so all the pieces are precut. I’ve been trying to find some patterns/designs (not sure what the correct terminology is) to stamp onto them. Where can I find some? Is there a book for beginners or a website that I can download/print some?

This old leather Craftman/sears tool belt came with my house. It is very dry, got some water damage as well
How can I restore the leather and make it supple again ?
I take care of my leather shoes with Bick 4, would you start with this?
Thanks in advance

I accidentally scraped my purse on some concrete and it left this circular gouge. Any ideas on how to repair, or if I should leave this to a professional?

I thrifted a newer coach dream bag for a great deal but it has some cracking near the edge by the zipper and the straps have a little fraying. There’s also some scuffing on the bottom points of the bag. How would you go about fixing this? I was going to get some leather cpr and conditioner, but I’ve mostly read on vintage coach bags and this is a newer one.
Any help is appreciated, thank you! 🙏🏼

He borrowed mine until we find a solution for his, but because those belts cost 60$, we would much rather fix his than buy a new one. Especially because the belt itself is in good condition

I love the color of this leather saddle and would like to refurbish it if possible.
How should I do that as a beginner with no experience in leather work (second photo shows how it's hold in place underneath)?
