Flora Painted Leather Bracelet
Created by: Rita Hutchinson
Designer Tips
Lightly sand the surface of the leather for best paint and ink adhesion.
Use paint brushes to apply Ranger patina paint as desired to cuff.
When paint is dry, rubber stamp pattern as desired.
Allow ink to dry and then apply glaze to protect the painted and stamped images.
Use metal punch to create a second hole in the TierraCast pendant. Punch corresponding holes in leather cuff, plus additional holes 3-4mm further out.
Sew TierraCast pendant to cuff with silk cord; I was able to secure each side 3 times.
Knot and trim cord ends and add a dab of superglue to help prevent cord from unraveling.

One or more parts (or tools) used in this project are no longer available, so we've moved the whole project into the "Misc Jewelry Tutorials with Issues" area while we decide what we want to do about it: find a good sub, re-make this project, or retire the tutorial.
