Leather Journal Kit Tutorial

[@user-bh1lk9rj7j]

Excellent instruction for us beginners, thanks.

[@chance9979]

Stylize it!! I love the idea of taking a simple project to the next level.

[@DarrellSeaman1]

Yes I would to see some cool ideas for the journal

[@DavidB-fy8oj]

I would love to see a journal style with a Steam punk theme with embossed gears as the edges.

Daniel you did a nice job on this journal cover. I “dip” dye as much as I can if I have a container big enough to fit the project in or through the dye container. If I have to dye a large project, then I use a 3” sponge brush to dye it. Best regards, Richard

[@th.burggraf7814]

Always a pleasure to watch your videos. Keep 'em coming, Daniel. 👍🏻

[@markhulette6987]

Nice! Always looking for ideas and inspiration for journal covers!

[@markedis5902]

Try using a horsehair shoe brush for dying large areas it works well. I put dye onto a medium size dinner plate then dip in all of the bristles and then straight onto the leather

[@1771Homestead]

Great idea! Thank you!

[@rockleatherworks3154]

Dan Great video, I would buried the end of the pen loop between the two part for a cleaner look. Also if you add another pen loops on the other side under you will have a closing mechanism. That my 2 dollars input. I know’s supposed to be my two cents but 2 dollars Canadian equal about 2 US cents.😮

I'd like to see an old west one. For like Wells Fargo or The Pony Express logs.

[@DanielReachCreations]

Yeeessss!!!!

[@Rellik137]

I second the pony express logo

[@williammrdeza9445]

Nice project, Chuck! Thank you.

[@151deanwalker]

Love these build videos!

[@Brandyp2010]

Outstanding Job 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@DaemonsBane]

Yes please, show us how you can style it :D

[@vanessakitty8867]

Nicely done.

[@scotthaney50]

I would like to see a Celtic themed

[@beckyeversole3121]

I would love to see a wildlife carving journal.

[@jonas-mb6cf]

In Sweden we have a special painting called kurbits its from Dalarna , would be nice to se a projekt with that 😉

[@jackiemitchell4418]

Would like a full, legal pad sized journal kit.

[@stevemoening2205]

I would like Weaver to make the pattern available as a download. I have leather that I purchased from Weaver and would like to use it for my journal. Thanks

[@GT_Racer347]

Sweet 👍🏻 👍🏻

[@Reetz-xo2sw]

I would love to see this made with a very nice (Krause) ring binder

[@AzraelThanatos]

I used to have a nice leather cover that I'd picked up at a craft fair which was the right size for a standard composition book....keep looking for a replacement after it disappeared on me during a move. As a side note, how large is the journal insert for this?

[@DanielReachCreations]

I'm sure weaver will reply with the journal size.

[@WeaverLeatherSupply]

Journal insert measures 8.2” x 5.5”

[@anthony-fi]

On a budget.. could use goat vegtan on the inside?

[@DanielReachCreations]

If its supple, then you should be good to go.

[@odalesaylor]

Will the leather pieces come prepunched? I never get that right by myself.

[@DanielReachCreations]

Good question. They don't. The kit gives you everything you need to complete the project from scratch.

[@DanielReachCreations]

What part is it that throws you off? Maybe we can do a video on it.

[@williammorrin7933]

You should do a star wars inspired one that's "old"

[@user-ni2ux5tp2l]

Круто

[@rickjoyce637]

You could do a Harry Potter inspired Marauders Map

[@alaskankare]

is this from the call for kit suggestions? never heard what happened with that. seems like you should have mentioned this was from that call for ideas and who suggested it. 😢

[@WeaverLeatherSupply]

This specific kit was planned before the video asking for suggestions. The upcoming kits will show who suggested it and the person who suggested it will get a free kit!

[@donaldconder7563]

I was thinking steampunk superhero motif.

[@JohnTBlock]

Feelings Pro Dye isn't that fumey, for dip dying, IMO...

[@martymccallum1053]

Jack sparrow treasure map style 😅

[@DanielReachCreations]

That would be a good one!

I say use the old hammer! Clean it up with some wire brushing, steel wool, sand paper, and finally some buffing. An old hammer has a story behind it, so write another chapter!
