New Leather Journal - Steampunk

Wednesday, May 27, 2009

Last night I finished up this new leather journal cover. I used several pieces of leather which I hand stitched, dyed with antiquing gel, riveted, and burned. It was very fun to do (as some of you know, I enjoy the process of making things). I especially love the fisheye glass piece covering the gears on the front of the journal. I burned in the designs on the back with a woodburning tool, kind of like branding.
