How to Make a Minimalist Wallet (FREE PATTERN!)
Summer is a great time to make yourself a simple small wallet to carry just the essentials! We take you thought making one of our minimalist Summer wallets in a very slim Vegetable Tanned leather with a stiff plastic interior core - this core will allow your minimalist leather wallet to remain nice and thin but have a nice stiff core for extra structure. We hand stitch this leather wallet with a saddle stitch, but you can always machine sew if you'd like! Make sure to grab the free pattern and make your own using this leather crafting tutorial :)
Happy Crafting!
For anyone else late to the party, pocket A is roughly a 3 x 4 inch rectangle and you should be able to rough out the rest of the patterns from there. Happy crafting!
Only when starting to do leather work did I realize what a high level of skill you have attained. You are right, doing manual tasks on cheap leather again and again is the way to build craftsmanship. Thanks for all you do!
Would love to see your take on a travelers cigar case that can hold two cigars, a cutter, and a torch.
I second, third and forth that!!
I 5th,6th & 7th that 😁
8,9, and 10 checking in
me as well :)
LEO Y A i D E E 😁😁
Such a craftsman. And your instructional videos just keep getting better and better. Thanks so much for what you do. My journey of leather working continues because of you guys and I really appreciate it!
Thank you for being such a huge inspiration for me, you were my motivation to start working with leather. I would love to see you make a phone case that wraps well around the phone (like a wet molding technique). One that is simple and thin and that hugs the phone. Thanks again for being so awesome!
Hi i know i am a couple of years late. I cant seem to find the pattern in the link. Is it to late?
Great video once again! I’m really liking this new style with you explaining everything as you do it. And THANK YOU for not playing background music 😂 This might be a longer video or maybe a small multi video series but I’d like to see you make a small women’s side bag or hand bag type thing. Food for thought!
Can't thank you enough for these videos and inspiration. These little card holders and wallets are going to be my first projects. I'm very excited.
I dig the design. Simple. Clean. Relative to a project, I have been sketching out a pencil case. When I was young and in school I had a tan pencil case that was almost like a leather tube with a zipper. As a kid it was the magic pencil bag. In my adult years I look for ways to bring childhood simplicities back...because who wants to be an adult all the time.
So I was at work the other day and I was putting on my work tool belt and I started thinking that you guys would be great to make some leather ones love your videos and very educational actually the reason why I have started leather crafting as a new hobby!
Hmmm.. seems all of the items under "Corter Leather" on Weavers site is gone (there's still links, but they don't go anywhere).. not sure if it permanent or just a temp thing.. but no templates or anything else...
Ooo definitely a medium tool pouch or small everyday carrying pouches! I’ve been looking for a decent video to watch and get inspiration ☺️ great work!
That is so cool using the plastic as a backer, great job.
I made this wallet after watching this about 3 years ago and it has been excellent and still has no visible wear marks, I edge it in brown and that hasn't cracked either. Today I ordered the acrylic template from Buckleguy to start making more for friends and family. Thank you for this video.
I would like to see you design and make a “wallet” to hold documents, insurance cards, registration and such to go in the glove box of my car. Thanks!
Passport wallet!
@@vpham92688 sounds like he’s talking about something bigger.
Just ordered the stuff I need to start. Thanks for making these videos! Can't wait to start
You guys are great leather workers!! True craftsman!!!
Unfortunately the free pattern is no longer available. Anyone know if there's somewhere else I could find it?
So neat to see how these are made, great video!
I enjoy watching your videos while crafting. I just made my first minimalist wallet with a marbled dye effect, using shaving cream. I know in most of your videos you don't do much dying, but I would like to see a professional perspective on the marble dying technique. I would love a wallet you've made , so I can use it as incentive to keep improving my own work.
This pattern seems like a good first project for someone, thanks for the video! I’d love to see your take on a pen case!
I'd like to see more bag videos with patterns that would be available for purchase. You've made great bags in the past and I think larger bags would be an excellent addition to your line.
For years, I have been using flexible clear plastic cutting boards from the Dollar store to help with pattern making. They work great! I never knew until today that you sold pattern plastic :)
Love, love, love that your videos are so streamlined. They are a pleasure to watch. Thank you. I would like to second (I think it was mentioned already) a video on an iPad case that has a built in stand or some type of leather organizer to hold all these tools that I am accumulating :)
Hello thank you for this tutorial. I can’t find the free pattern
It was just a hook to get people like us to watch their video....
Oh yeah, and I love your lighter holder. I totally have to make one myself.
Great video with great explanation. Thank you for the free pattern.
Clearly I am late to this party, but I would love to attempt this project! Anyone have an active link to the free template?
yes, I also feel kind of deceived
Very very cool and super informative video! I'm so very thankful for your help. Thank you, thank you.
Great pattern! It would be cool to see you do a project with a type of leather you don't normally work with, and talk about the positives and negatives of it :)
A cellphone wallet would be a great idea for Christmas presents. I enjoy your videos so easy to follow. Thank you
I am so very new at leather crafting, and I'm so inspired by Corter and Weaver. I would love to see a pattern for a simple glasses case. What's really holding me back is picking the leather - I'm not sure what would be the best/safest leather for glasses. I guess I'm looking for some suggestion as to what would be stiff enough to provide some protection, but have a soft side that wouldn't scratch up my lenses.
Love you guys!
I’d like to see all the different tools you use. Along with the vocabulary you use when you’re working. Basically a beginners video much like this one.
Great video. U have inspired me to make a wallet. Thank you for all the tips for someone that never worked with leather before..God bless you 🙏.
Is it just me or does weaver’s link not work? I would love to make this fantastic wallet. Does anyone have this template or know where I can get it?
Greetings,
still continue to be amazed, with this idea and concept totally, not only in the principles of construct ,but also in functionality.
Amazing and awesome , not jusrto watch , but also to listen, as the "draw, cut and stitch " goes along.
The simple economy of movements is a treat to watch, like observing and doing a "residency" in leather craft.
Great project to make and gift to golfing buddies,!
THANKS
Very informative and educational. Thanks for sharing
Eric, you make great videos and with the voice over the instructions are so great. I made several of these without the plastic in the center. Seems like once you place one credit card or similar into the wallet it stiffens it up. Thanks so much.
Just found your channel and Love watching such great work. I am excited to learn all the great things you have to offer. I sure would love to learn how to make an over night travel bag. Also a leather tool bag with lots of different pockets to secure sharp tools.
Thanks so much for great videos... I will be sharing your channel with my friends and family. They also love to make things.
Fantastic, it's small and at the same time functional :)
Great video as always! It would be a blast to see a case designed to carry a straight razor and beard comb of some sorts! thanks for the great content and keep up the solid work, cheers.
I’d love to see a video on making and/or designing a clutch or handbag. I’ve made four of your wallets so far, one for my best man at my wedding last year and one each for my father, brother in law and my sisters boyfriend as Christmas gifts last year. Now it’s the girls turn to have something made for them!
Excellent work, thank u for explaining 🌹🌹
Great job! Never thought of the pattern plastic as a body for these kind of small wallets. I usually just put a liner on the middle body of my wallet. I think I'll give it a try! Keep up the great work, always a pleasure to watch your videos
What other liners work well?
Great project! Thank you for the video, pattern and the giveaway! I would love to see some more wet-molded projects. Perhaps a knife sheath (both folding pocket knife and fixed blade).
Very enjoyable to watch.
free pattern link is broken :( anyone has it?
Looks like Weaver has stopped carrying the pattern. Wouldn't be too hard to come up with one fresh, but is that PDF still available anywhere?
Hello. I saw this idea and made a pdf. It turned out similar, I can send it to the mail.
simple, clever design!
I love your videos. I just started leather working. I would like to see more videos on what is the best leather you can use for wallet making and the best budget leather for starting out leather working. Thank you.
Thanks for the vid! Im looking into making this exact design but with an outer sleeve that with a window to show my DL. So, one outer sleeve for cards, an inner sleeve for cash, and one for the DL. Thanks!
A topic I’ve been very interested in is edge paint. Meaning, heatable vs sanded. Or non heatable edge paints. What’s the pros and cons to each. And what the steps are for both maybe. Would be a cool topic I think.
I'd love to see you guys make a pouch style bag. Keep up the great content 👍
Nice one!
Nice wallet! Love the simplicity of it! I’d like to see you work with canvas...
The video about the differences between machine stitching and saddle stitching was very informative but I’d love an instructional video all about saddle stitching!
How great!
Awesome wallet! This style of wallet is the whole reason I started googling leather working in the first place and ended up subscribing months ago. Trust that this wallet would find a good home with me.
I have a few video ideas to share.
It would be cool to see a molded sunglasses case.
I’d like to see a folding iPad/iPhone case that folds and acts as a stand.
A long, folding, zippered women’s wallet would make a nice project like the Frye Melissa zip around.
But a video I’d really like to see would be one that goes into the details like - I see you press your logo into the leather, if I wanted to press my logo where would someone get that tooled? What are the best types of leather? I’d like to hear more about the tools you use- what are good brands, what should I avoid? That kind of thing.
I’ve enjoyed your channel. Keep up the good content!
Been looking for how to make a 5 bullet rifle shell holder with a flap.
Thank you,
You make great stuff!
I just came across this and the link doesn’t work. Would you happen you have it somewhere else?
Wow such precise craftsmanship. I would love to see a simple crossbody bag for a phone, keys and money holder
Love it! Thank you,,
Just starting leather crafting and would love to know your thoughts on making a dog collar as the D ring seems to be a bit tricky to measure. Great videos and the narration is definitely a plus for me. All the best
Simple,I like 😁👍
Blockbuster!!!!
I would love to see you make a leather tool box that would have some basic tools in it. Also, an airpod case would be nice, I have them and I just cannot afford to scratch the surface. Love the videos, keep em coming!
Aprendí mucho. Gracias
The link to the pattern doesent work:(
Very good. Thanks!
One future aim of mine is to make a hip-bag to carry some leather working essentials to a public show next year.
It will be a very complex build for me as it would be built to perform a specific task, but also incorporate lots of different geometry and design elements. (Buckles, Zippers, Belt, clasps etc...)
Possibly too much for a single video, but I'd love to see your take on something like that!
Thanks again for all the great tips and advice!!!
Beautiful wallet! Would love to see your guys make a wet moulded valet tray!
Nice one. Planning to make this wallet as a project with my son while on summer holiday. So, thanks. Would like to see a video on a simple messenger bag with a shoulder strap, kinda like a mussette or bicycle courier bag!
I enjoyed this
I think seeing something like a barber bag for travel made would be super cool.
Great tutorials!!! I’d love to see how you would make a travel case for toiletries.
Great video and great wallet! I'd really like to see some smaller projects that use up scrap materials.
Really nice design. Just got a veg tan shoulder in 2 oz. looking forward to trying my skills and make one of these.
By any chance do you still have the instruction pdf?
Your videos are always confidence builders for me. I really enjoy the instructions and walk-thru. great job! What leather did you use for this wallet?
I would absolutely love a video on designing patterns using some sort of software. Im really not good a designing consistent even patterns on paper so this would be a huge help!
THANKS FOR SHARING
I love this!!!
Could you do a show about how to make a wristlet?
Thank you for sharing✌💛☺
Would love to see you make a simple leather weekender bag. I've been thinking about trying to make one myself but I'd be way over my head.
I'd love to see you make a simple pencil case with a zipper but it doesn't really matter what you do, because I enjoy all of your videos 😊
Thanks so much for sharing your work. I always look forward to your posts. I was wondering if you could speak about how you finish your veg tan leather - neatsfoot oil, leather conditioner, etc .
I downloaded this pattern from Weaver last week and make a couple with a few modifications. I really enjoy doing a build along with you two 😁. I also really enjoy your helpful tips. I'd love to see some more videos with some unique dye techniques or even some more belt pouches or small bags.
Hey How do you download this template ??
can you share the pdf? the link is broken
@@chanfleman I could not download it either
@@chanfleman did you ever get the pdf
hello, can I get the pattern please?
Would love to see different stitches types. And how do to deal with chrome tan leather. Great job as always!
Great video and project. Would love to see a video on how to add coin pouches to wallets and a discussion on what types of leathers are good for certain projects, eg. Chrome tan vs. Veg tan. Thanks.
I would love to see a small crossbody bag or clutch!
I really appreciate the content you guys have been producing. You may have covered it before but if not I'd like to know how you folks price your products.
Love your work, I am interested in seeing a wallet that will accommodate coin rings I make but also after to be a usefull item.
Thank you. Wish me luck!
I would love to see you make a stay-on slip cover for a Kindle reader with a pocket on the back for a stand. I’m trying to work out the pattern for one but I only work in fabric I’m afraid. Love your videos and the skills you have.
I loved how u made this wallet and add some plastic inside is a brilliant idea.
I would like to see u make a cross body phone holder with side pocket😊
Me encantó! gracias!
Thank you!
When I was a kid my mom would always wear moccasins. That would be neat to see how they are made.
Try a holster. A pancake holster with a tooled stiffener. Or you could do a double layer belt. Both is a lot harder than people think. But I'd love to see you go for the holster. I love your work. I've been doing leather work since I discovered your channel and you make it look so easy I thought hmm I could do that lol. Well it wasn't so easy of course now I got the fundamentals down and make wallets,belts,holsters,zippo cases wet formed etc. I do tooling a lot now. Thanks for all the info. Love the new format where you teach what you're doing.
Love your videos! I would love to see a watch band video.
Great video! I would love to see a leather watch strap using some exotic leather.
I think a video about choosing different types of leather and weights for different projects would be really informative!
