The thing about inspiration is that you won’t know when it will happen. It could be something you see, hear or touch.
Lately I have been wanting to work with leather accessories again. Big pieces of (good) leather that I can work with is however difficult to find in Kuala Lumpur.
Since I still have some leather, I decided to make a fringe pendant with a rhinestone pattern. Here’s the how to:
- A piece of leather
- Stanley knife
- Various rhinestones
- Hole-puncher
- Grommet tool
- Jumprings
- Chain
- Glue
- Pliers
Cut a box shape, and then make one end into a “V” shape.
Step #2:
Start cutting lines on the “V” shape, to make a fringe.
Use the hole-puncher and punch holes on the other end of the leather pendant. Add the grommet according to instructions and punch using the grommet tool to keep it in place.
Glue the rhinestones in whatever design you would like, above the fringing. Let it set for a few hours.
Use pliers to add jumprings to both grommet holes. Then, attach the chain to both ends. Length of chain is based on your own liking.
