Hi all,
So mom has this leather (faux) handbag thats ripped inside; she's ready to throw it in the bin. I noticed that the outer was in good condition, so I rescue it from the bin. Out comes the epoxy, scissors, thread and needle, and a zipper.
Once I tore apart the bag into separate panels, I noticed that the inner was lined with some velvety soft material. What good luck!!!! I was able to make a nice leather pen pouch with a zipper that holds around 10 pens easily. Everything stitched together; works like a charm
But I needed something for an EDC- something not too bulky or obvious. So I made two cases- one for three pens and one for five. Seams were epoxied together (my hands were sore from stitching the pouch, so I opted for the easy way out). Velcro was also epoxied on the tabs to securely hold the pens. Left overnight to dry, I got two EDC cases for practically free!!!
And here are the pics on my Flickr pool. Click on the link to view the entire set.
