Crafting a Minimalist Leather Coin Wallet | DIY Leatherworking Tutorial

A simple wallet for coins. I use vegetable tanned leather, but you can use any leather you like. You can see a brief description of how to create a wallet here, or you can watch a video that shows how to make a wallet in more detail.
Supplies

Tools I use to create a wallet:

Step 1:
We trace the stencil of your wallet on the leather.

Step 2:
We cut out a blank for a wallet from leather.

Step 3:
Remove the edge of the leather. I use a tool for this - Edge Beveler.

Step 4:
We make holes for the buttons using a punch.

Step 5:
I paint my leather with a special paint for leather. But you can use already dyed leather.

Step 6:
I use a special finish for leather - Super Sheen.

Step 7:
I polish the edges of the leather with a special tool - Wood Slicker.

Step 8:
I install the buttons using a press.

Step 9:
Close all the buttons and your super convenient wallet is ready.
