REQUIRED MATERIALS
To make the plant pot cover, you need:
- The pattern (our pot is 9 cm in diameter: the squares that make up the pattern are therefore 9 cm).
- 4 m of round leather lace - 2 mm diameter - in the color of your choice.
- 1 piece of leather measuring 30x40 cm, 1 or 1.5 mm thick, in the color of your choice.
- 1 round welded ring – MATTE BLACK – 30 mm inner diameter
- Roll-set eyelet kit and setting tool – 4 mm – GLOSSY 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 utility knife.
The pencil is erasable on most types of leather with a simple eraser (do not use on vegetable-tanned leather). We recommend doing a test beforehand to verify the erasability on your leather.
2. PUNCH THE LEATHER TO SET THE EYELETS
- Make the 8 holes of Ø 4 mm (indicated on the pattern) either with the eyelet setting tool or with a round punch.
3. SET THE ROLL-SET EYELETS
Set the roll-set eyelets with the setting tool (included in the kit).
4. THREAD THE LACE THROUGH THE EYELETS
- Cut 4 pieces of lace measuring 80/90 cm.
- Thread a lace through 2 eyelets at each corner and tie a knot.
5. TIE A KNOT AT 15 CM
Tie a knot approximately 15 cm from the plant pot cover between the 2 laces on each side.
6. ATTACH THE LACES TO THE ROUND WELDED RING
Attach the laces to the round welded ring, two by two, using a knot.
