One of my favourate materials: Leather

I Love (emphasis on love!!!!) working with leather, its hard and hurts my poor little fingers but I like the challenge it gives me. I stick to pretty much the same colour schemes when picking leather, earthy tones inparticular catch my eye. I don't but large pieces of leather as it can be quite pricey so instead I'm constantly on the look out for scraps that I can get on the market but also handbags and similiar items from charity shops that can quite easily be deconstructed for the material.
