Anna, a friend gave me some pieces and i also ordered some from Ebay. Etsy also has vendors selling pieces and I also noticed my fabric store has some remnants which will be my next purchase.

I love anything that has a razed surface. I’m planning to explore this in my card and bookmark art and can’t wait to see the results. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you! I especially like the light and dark brown pair. I’ve been wanting to work with leather for a while, but not sure where to find it at the best price. Do you mind if I ask where you get yours?

Thank you Rena. I had one other pair i wanted to show that are in my Etsy store using two charms. I am getting hooked on making these. Thanks for the encouragement.

Thank you Mary Anne. I used a metal earring and just traced the shape on the leather. I did buy leather scissors from Tandy leather to do it.

I have seen many earrings cut out of leather and also faux leather using the Cricket machine. And using that you can get so many more earrings cut out in much less time.

These are very pretty and creative. I like how you put the beaded hoops with the leather drops.

You have to use the Cricut Maker as the Cricut Air or Explorer are not heavy duty enough for leather. I have a Sizzix Big Shot and the Bigz steel rule dies will also cut leather.

One would never know you cut the leather out without a die cutter machine. Love the mix of stones, textures and colors too.

Combining leather with various findings and wire creates an appealing look. I like the embossed leather, too. My favorite one of this collection is the last pair.
