Making a Handmade Leather Travel Wallet
Leather travel wallets are fun projects to make out of leather because they can be as simple or as complicated as you want to make the - all they really have to hold is a passport! Our handmade leather travel wallet holes much more than that, with 6 credit card slots and two big pouches for ticket, notebooks, receipts, or cash on top of an easy access slot for a passport or a notebook.
When making a leather travel wallet by hand, we like to use a saddle stitch to sew and we like to use saddle leather in our construction. This leather travel wallet is made with hermann oak veg tan and Old World Harness leathers, poly threads, and a solid brass snap that we had custom made by Scovill. We also use solid copper rivets from our Sponsor Weaver Leather with their heritage setter, which is an affordable way to set rivets in a solid, efficient manner!

This inspired me to get a leather crafting kit. I had know idea I would care about this but I need a new hobby and this seems fun and rewarding.

[@jeffreyguilmot8772]

So, how is your new hobby after 2 years, stranger?

[@luistrevino5959]

@@jeffreyguilmot8772 I need to know where can I purchase the pattern for this travel wallet? I did access the web site for it?! Reason why?! I need to know if it's been "pdf" accessable? To obviously, print it out the pattern?. Thank you. But if its capable to be printed out on regular size paper 8.5 x 11 and not on A4 size. Thank you, again

Thanks. I'll never complain about the price of leather accessories again.

Matheus Phelps i totally agree with you. I was thinking same as you.

[@ammoguy8016]

When hobby/arts+crafts become a skill, people who appreciates it understand the cost of it is called value. The k-mart, wal-mart crowd don't get it and never will. Simple, very nice. Well done. Brovo !

I know this is an older video by now, but one thing that might cut down on the consumable cost and waste of paper towels could be getting a large silicone mat (often sold as "silpat" or silicone baking sheets) to use as a surface to glue on, instead of paper towels. Very easy to clean, dishwasher safe, liquid materials won't bleed through it, and nothing sticks to it. I got one when doing resin casting to protect my bench and it's saved me a lot of hassle.

[@abazaabdelmageid774]

Brilliant and amazing work, the human handmade works it can't compare to any machine works. Well done

[@petrolheads4987]

I'm so childish... i made my self laugh by thinking "that hammer, that must be a Corter Pounder" ... i'll get my coat.

[@Corter]

omg! so no joke we're planning to make some cast iron hammers - if it's ok with you, we will 100% use that as the name because that's hilarious! Happy to send you one when they're made (which who knows how long that'll take haha, but it's in the works!) just let us know :)

[@petrolheads4987]

Of Course!! That would be awesome, thank you.

[@Corter]

great! Thank you for coming up with the perfect name - if we had a dollar for every pun we rattled off at the bench we wouldn't need to sell wallets for a living, it's perfect!

That was excellent to watch. The craft and the video itself were worth my time. Thank you. I still enjoy the subtle variations of how each leather-crafter creates. And I still am envious of folks that are so good at something that they warrant having a die cut of their brand. LOL Very well done sir.

What is the price of the wallet, what is your sales site?

[@MaskedMuslim1]

What is the name of this leather and from where did I get it

[@c7customleather]

Just wondering why don't you use a stitching pony? Also is there a reason why you don't use a stitch groover? I'm new to let her work and just wondering.

[@Corter]

I learned without a stitching pony 10-12 years ago so for the most part we don't use them - we use a stitch method where our back hand holds tension which allows us to pull both threads tight at the same time just like a stitching pony though! Don't use a grover because I don't like cutting through the grain of the leather that much - of course it's a useful tool to bury stitching on high wear areas of something like a saddle :)
