Tutorial on making a beautiful DIY handbag from a discarded iron tea cup. First prepare a log. A discarded large iron tea cup, a piece of vegetable-tanned cowhide (or crazy horse leather. Belt leather is fine), two thicker leather ropes, a foot square of leather (any kind of leather will do), baby cream (for lubrication, save it) The log is pressed into the teacup with its skin and cannot be pulled out), glass beads and other accessories.
Preparation materials:
1: One piece of red cowhide (about 1 foot)
2: A piece of vegetable tanned leather (crazy horse leather, belt leather. Both are acceptable. Thin ones are not acceptable, especially lychee cowhide, which has no plasticity when exposed to water)
3: A large teapot. .
4: A section of log (sand it with sandpaper)
Soak the thick vegetable-tanned leather in water for about 2 minutes.
Put it on the log.
Press the big teapot down hard. It’s really not possible to hit it with a wooden block and a hammer!!!
Dry with a hair dryer or on the stove. .
I later found that I couldn’t pull it out
Apply pliers and use a knife. Break the teapot. . . . (A disposable teapot...)
For coloring, do not use pen or ink. Use alcohol dye. Or you can go to the supermarket and buy leather oil.
Dry color. .
Start eye-piercing. If there is a distance, use a spacing. If there is no distance, use a compass. If you really can't use a ruler, you haven't used a rope, and you can't measure with your fingers. . .
Double-sided tape, stick to both sides without holes.
Then draw lines and sew.
Tie the remaining thread inside, cut it short, remove the thread with a lighter, and flatten the burned part with the butt of the lighter.
Then punch holes in the vegetable tanned leather base. If there is a gap, use a spacing. If there is not, use a compass. If it is not possible, use a ruler, rope, and fingers. . . . . . . . . .
Put the sewn red leather and vegetable-tanned leather base together with a leather cord.
Tie the leather cord inside with a wax figure.
Turn the opening of the bag outward, use double-sided tape to tape a circle along the edge of the opened inner layer, then turn it back and glue it in place.

After turning it over, stick it well and tap it again with a small hammer
Eye. If there is a distance, use a distance. If there is no distance, use a compass. If it is really impossible to use a ruler, there is no rope, and there is no finger. . . . . . .
Then wear a leather cord and add accessories. . . Done!!!!
