Medium Circle Die Cuts, 0.75 Inch Upcycled Leather Shapes for Mixed Media Art (10 pairs)

0.75" (19.05mm) round die cut pieces are top grain leather, handmade by me from scraps of high quality Italian cowhide. Rounds are approximately 1.5mm thick, and soft and flexible (I use remnants from a maker of comfy upholstery) but not droopy. Use them to make bold stud earrings or to embellish anything from a hat to a special greeting card. Cut edges are unfinished and may have fuzz on the edges that can be trimmed with sharp scissors or filed with an emery board for a smoother look. You may wish to add holes for attaching additional components (you'll need an awl or a leather punch) As these are made from a single thickness of natural cowhide, the finish is only on the front.

Depending on the scraps I have to work with, leather may be smooth, pebbled, distressed, or embossed. Colors range from understated earth tones (browns and grays) to vivid hues (like acid green or cheerful cherry red). Vegetable tan pieces are tooling leather, which is a bit stiffer, but the best choice for stamping, embossing, painting, and even dyeing. As these are made from a single thickness of natural cowhide, the finish is only on the front.

You will receive a 20-piece set of 10 matched pairs in your choice of either assorted colors (see photos for examples) or beige vegetable tan. Special requests are always welcome, but may take additional time to prepare.
