A few months ago I discovered Creation Station in Lynwood - it's a craft store that sells random craft items that were donated or purchased cheaply by them. Recycled craft goods. I found a full box of leather samples - 5" x 8" samples of varying colors. I've fallen in love with working with the leather, but I haven't found just one thing to do with it. Here's a sampling of what I've done so far. The buttons on the wrist bands are turn of the century mother of pearl buttons I found - I'm still figuring out the perfect way to fasten these. The upper right is a glasses case inspired by one I made in 6th grade that I am STILL using. The pouch on the left was meant for those extra large glasses. The coin purse/business card holders in the middle are being played around with. I'm thinking zippers and I need to add a lining. More to come!
