Leather Journal DIY!
It is Sherlock calendar week hither at !
Hope y'all had a really Merry Christmas.
Sherlock, the novel flavor of BBC's epic series, comes out on Jan 1st!
Let's celebrate alongside five super geeky crafts!

If y'all haven't watched Sherlock,
It's a fun twist on the onetime Sherlock Holmes books past times Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
They are detective based mysteries railroad train inwards modern days.
Like how the onetime schoolhouse books could live interpreted today!
doctor John Watson, instead of writing for the newspaper The Strand, has a blog!
There are three seasons (3 Ninety infinitesimal episodes each season) as well as they did a fun characteristic final New Year's Day, The Abominable Bride.
Anyways, let's craft.

I got a blank mag majority from Oriental Trading.
They are inexpensive as well as the newspaper is similar to newsprint, simply fun for a craft.
I also used fleck leather (purchased inwards a parcel at Hobby Lobby)
Rubber cement, snaps as well as setter, as well as gilded adhesive foil/adhesive pen
Rotary cutter as well as cutting mat (or scissors)

let's DIY!

Cut the leather to gibe the mag summation 1/4 inch on the top as well as bottom.
The length should live plenty to larn to a greater extent than or less the entire majority as well as to the center.
Mine measures vi inches past times eleven inches.

Cut it to gibe your dimensions.

Next purpose a snap setter as well as some snaps.
Set a snap correct inwards the pump of the leather flap.
Put the majority within as well as intend through the correct direction for the snaps to work.
Haha, I did my get-go i wrong.

Plastic snaps are lots of fun.

They occur cloth as well as low-cal weight leather.

Setting the i inwards the pump of the majority is easy.
Just practice the border i first, as well as then crease it to a greater extent than or less the majority as well as brand a mark
where it lines up, as well as then set the top of the snap there.

Next purpose the prophylactic cement as well as coat solely i side of the leather as well as the book.
Let the prophylactic cement dry.

Then press the cemented sides together.

Then repeat for the other side, simply practice non set whatever prophylactic cement
on the spine area.
Rubber cement the leather as well as the majority encompass as well as permit them both dry.
Then press together.

Leave similar this, if y'all like...
It's fantastic as well as cool looking!

I used an adhesive pen as well as wrote the famous
221 B address on the flap.
It is reminiscent of the front end door to the storey on Baker Street.
I also used gilded foil that adheres to gum as well as leaves the gorgeous foil!
