Leather Dragonfly Lapel Pin

"My favorite Sak purse was looking tired and worn so I repurposed it as a craft supply! It was reborn as a darling leather dragonfly lapel pin using the zipper to represent the body and the creamy leather as wings. It is easy to cut the leather if you use glue stick to attach the pattern to the leather before cutting it out. After the wings are cut, simply remove the pattern and the leather is still soft and pretty."

Materials List

• scrap leather
• glue
• scissors
