THE NECESSARY MATERIALS

To make the flowerpot you need:

  • From the pattern (our pot is 9 cm in diameter: the squares that form the pattern are therefore 9 cm).
  • 4 m of round leather lace - diameter 2 mm - in the color of your choice.
  • 1 piece of leather 30x40 cm, 1 or 1.5 mm thick in the color of your choice.
  • 1 welded round ring – MATTE BLACK – 30 mm inner diameter
  • Rolling Grommets and Setting Tool Kit – 4mm – Gloss Black

1. CUT OUT THE PIECE FOLLOWING THE PATTERN

  • Using the silver pencil, trace the piece onto the leather.
  • Cut out the piece using a ruler and a cutter.

The pencil is erasable on most leathers with a simple eraser (do not use on vegetable tanned leather). We recommend that you test it first to confirm the erasability on your leather.

2. PIERCE THE LEATHER TO INSTALL THE EYELETS

Make the 8 3 mm holes (indicated on the pattern) either with the eyelet setting tool or with a round punch.

  • Pass a lace through 2 eyelets at each corner and tie a knot.

Tie a knot about 15 cm from the planter between the 2 laces on each side.
