Laser Engraved/Hand Stitched Leather Keychains

"Motel" style leather keychains. Original pattern by me.
Mostly made from recovered or discarded leather scraps.
Inspited by the plastic motel keychains used prior the the mid 70s.
Custom requests are always welcome.

General process for the creation of a leather piece involves:
Idea.
Initial design.
Write a functional pattern.
Produce a test piece.
Make corrections as needed.
If no further issues are found a final design is ready.

Once final design is ready the steps are:
Pre-prep the leather for engraving. (dyes, sealant, ect)
Engrave/cut the material via laser.
Post engrave cleaning of the material.
Cement pieces together as needed prior to stitching.
Hand stitch the all the pieces.
Hand polish/burnish the piece.
Reseal the leather.
Install metal hardware.

100% of the work is by me.

Graphics will vary as needed.
Most are graphics I've created, some pieced together bits from other graphics.
