You will also need small quantities of dyes, finishes, hardware along the way but there are a lot of projects you can do, and get a lot of solid practice, using just leather and the tools listed here. 🔥 Other: 💲 PATTERN FOR FANTASY HELMET: http://bit.ly/PAA-FantasyHelmet 💲 💲 Gingher Scissors https://amzn.to/2GD9iit - Favorite scissors for cutting patterns/paper The next tutorial has been recorded and should be available within the next two weeks ⚜️Like the content and want to see more?
