Bracelet made from old bag leather

If you have an out-of-use leather bag that you are going to throw away, or some other unnecessary item made of leather or leatherette, you can not throw it away, but use it in needlework, for example, you can make a bracelet out of this item. You can use fairly well-preserved pieces of leather, as well as the handle of a bag. To do this, you need to carefully cut out all the suitable parts of the bag, and make a lace from the handle, cutting off a thin line of leather from it.

1. In addition to pieces of leather and lace, to create a bracelet you will need:
contour acrylic paints on fabric;
scissors (preferably manicure scissors with sharp tips);
ruler, pencil;
a sheet of paper or cardboard;
needle, thread (to match skin color).

2. We begin work by cutting out the blank for the bracelet. Cut a rectangle out of leather measuring 17 cm in length and 8 cm in width. These values ​​are, of course, arbitrary; you can make a bracelet of any size.

3. Stepping back 1 cm from the edge, use scissors to cut holes on both sides for attaching the laces.

4. From the prepared lace, cut off 2 pieces about 15 cm long. By inserting the lace into the hole and bending it 1-2 cm, carefully hem it.

5. Now let's start painting the bracelet.Draw a sketch to create a pattern using, for example, coins. We outline them, placing them in the shape of a flower. We finish drawing some petals. You can draw the entire drawing by hand, as long as the lines are straight and not crooked.

6. Cut out the sketch along the outer contour and apply it to the leather blank exactly in the center.
