- Taken from our question and answer session on Facebook Live - how to smooth the back of vegetable tanned leather.
Please note the quality of the video footage is not great but hopefully it will still give you some useful content.
The tools and materials mentioned are the bone folder and Carnuba Cream, available from www.identityleathercraft.com
Great topic, I really needed it! Thank you. However could I advise you to get a better web cam? The present one really let's you down.
Working on it! Yes we have learnt a lot since we started - we plan to go back and redo some of the content on the poorer quality footage, thank you for watching.
HELLOOOOOOOO
I was looking for a video showing how to get my boots to be smooth again.
But what I found was much better than that.
Ainslee's name was used in the beginning as the one who asked the question. My fiance lost her in an accident 3.5 years ago. But she shows herself in odd places and I am very grateful!
God bless you for being a part of the journey. HE blessed you with a great talent!
David - that is such a lovely and moving comment, thank you
Excellent video Sarah.
Thank you!
When making a veg tan leather cuff or veg tan leather bracelet, may I ask what is the best product to use on the flesh side that won't cause an allergic reaction to someone's wrist without making the cuff with two layers glued and stitched together?
It feels to me, using two layers makes some delicate styles too thick.
(I make leather jewelry and worry about the same thing, when I am making pretty and delicate leather chokers.)
Would plain beeswax work?
You do a great job,
Thank You!
Perhaps a beeswax paste product or Carnuaba cream, always best to check though, some beeswax pastes are softened with walnut oil. Alternatively there are very thin leathers on the website that work well for linings for this - take a look at the Lambskin and the Soft Suedes..
what's the name of the cream you put on it? Where can I get it?
Hi Rebecca - it is Carnauba Cream which you can get from our website www.identitystore.com, it is a lovely gentle wax that you can also use as a finish.
