Hello and welcome friends to another leather crafting tutorial! In today’s video, I'll be showing you how I crafted a custom cup sleeve made from black glossy alligator leather with contrasting red stitching. This project was commissioned by a friend who wanted an adaptable sleeve for his flask but preferred it to be made from exotic leather, as he enjoys that style quite a bit.
The project is relatively simple to make, but getting the template right is crucial. It starts with creating the pattern for the sleeve using some masking tape, a pencil, and a pair of scissors.
There isn’t a pre-made template available for this project, but I wanted to demonstrate how you can create this or similar projects from scratch with just a few tools, and what to consider when crafting it.
Thank you so much for watching! If you liked this video and want to explore more leather crafting projects, be sure to subscribe and hit the notification bell so you never miss a new upload. I regularly post tutorials, product reviews, and other exciting content related to leatherwork.
