leather crafts

Tanning-based handiwork projects

Leather crafts are handmade items produced by working with animal hides—wallets, belts, bags, holsters, and decorative pieces.

The term encompasses both the objects themselves and the skills involved in their creation: cutting, stitching, tooling, dyeing, and finishing.
