Creative Leather Accessories

Another class that I took at LCOF was Creative Leather Accessories. We had two projects during this class, both involving bags.

The first project we had was a pouch. We were given patterns for this, then had to make the pouch our own. I finished my pouch by adding a small handle on the top and a gold closure on the flap.

Our other project was to design our own bag. The only rules were that it had to be kept simple and clean. I decided that I wanted to make a bag to keep my portfolio in. That way on interviews they see the bag I made in real life.

This class has showed me that I have interest in a career in accessories. I enjoyed the sketching and seeing the design come to life. Can't wait to use it!
