These handmade leather coasters are a simple and beautiful project that can be finished in as little at 1 -3 hours depending on the amount of detail you want to put into them. One of the things I love about making these is that I can be as creative as I want with the colors and artwork on the coasters. These are very easy to customize and make for a very special and eye-catching gift. For added style I have stamped a small basket weave design into the interior circle of each coaster. This simple design doesn't require a lot of experience with leather tooling and is something even those who are new to leather tooling can succeed at making. Although if you are completely new to leather tooling, then I would always recommend practicing on a scrap piece of leather until you get a feel for things before trying too stamp your basket weave on your finished pieces. To accompany this project I have published a step by step video tutorial on Youtube to guide you through the crafting process. I have also made this pattern available for free on my website at, www.fischerworkshops.com . The pattern file also comes with additional details you might find helpful with this project, such as leather types and thicknesses I used, along with tools and products I used when making mine.
