Making A Nice Leather Work Bag - Full Process - Leather Craft

Описание: Making a nice leather work bag. In this leather craft video set out to make myself a nice leather bag with plenty of places for storage. The bag is made from chrome tan leather and measures 15” across. It features an interior partition which creates a space that can fit most modern laptop computers. The front of the partition has several pockets and places for storing paperwork, cards & ink pens. Across from the partition is an interior leather zipper pouch that can store small items. On the outside of the bag I designed some small pouches that are attached to the side gussets for extra storage, these have hidden magnetic snaps used for the closures. There is a single pocket located on the front of the bag and on each side of the pocket tuck-lock closures are used to secure the bag shut and provide easy opening and closing. The bag has a simple top grab handle and an adjustable shoulder strap for carrying. I hope you enjoy this leather craft video and find some tips and inspiration to help you design and create your own custom leather bag 💼
