Leather Leaves

These are some leaves made out of veggitan leather we made at The Custom Costume Company. We traced the shape, cut it out with a craft knife, dampened the leather then added the details with scouring and stamping. I've never worked with leather before and I really enjoyed it, though it doesman have kill your hands, I had little in the way of fingers left after doing it and poor Denise got SRI. After doing the details we shaped them with our hands to make them more realistic and painted with leather dye.
