finally stitch your wallet together using gut cord and a big needle. start by folding the small flap on top of the wallets main body over and then the bottom flap over the top (see pic) and finish the stitch off with a simple knot.

Caring for Your Wallet

over time your wallet will absorb the oil from your skin giving it a nice looking finish, basically the longer you use it, the better looking it becomes, simply clean it with a damp cloth if you have to , most chemicals will fudge the process of naturally letting it take on a color from just using it daily. shout out to Tandy leather of salt lake city ut for their advice on stitching leather.
