Making A Leather Trifold Wallet - Leather Craft
Making a leather trifold wallet. Made from natural vegetable tanned leather, this wallet features a large roomy cash slot opening and three individual card pocket assemblies (9 card pockets total). Dyed with a sunburst fade consisting of walnut and dark chocolate colors that provide a rich vintage look. I hope you enjoy watching the creation process and try making your own.
