Decorate leather bracelet with embossing stamps
How to decorate a leather bracelet with embossing stamps? In this tutorial we will show you how to decorate the leather strap with embossing stamps.
If you use a rather soft leather with a rough surface, such as craft leather, you should moisten the leather strap with a sponge. This will make it easier to emboss the design into the leather. Then place the embossing stamp on the strap. With a hammer blow on the stamp, the motif is embossed into the band.
Embossing stamps, also called hallmarks, are available in many sizes and with different motifs. Your favorite motif is certainly also there!
Please note, however, that not every leather strap is suitable for embossing! Not every leather surface can be permanently embossed with a motif. For leather straps and other leather items that are suitable for embossing, you will find a note in the item description in our store.
In our store you will find a lot of accessories such as key rings or ribbons made of smooth leather. This leather is also very suitable for embossing.
When using embossing stamps for leather, it is always important to have a hard, smooth surface. Stamping pads from Impressart are particularly suitable. To ensure that the motif is imprinted well into the leather, you also need a sufficiently heavy hammer. Here, too, we recommend the tool from Impressart.
To emboss the motif beautifully and precisely, you should place the stamp perpendicular to the leather. Working with stamps from Impressart is particularly easy, because the motif of the stamp is engraved once again on the shaft. When stamping, the motif should then face you.
The motif is stamped onto the leather with a single strong blow. In addition, you can decorate your jewelry or keychain with leather paint.
Of course you can also stamp the leather strap with letters. In our store you will find many different fonts and sizes. Maybe start with the first project with a short word!
The work is the same, whether letter stamps or motif stamps. Letters are usually even a little easier to stamp and with clearer results than filigree motifs!
Embossed leather strap can be made into classic bracelets. But it also looks great as a keychain. Surely you can think of more projects with leather and embossing stamps!
Have fun!
