How To: Make a Hand-Tooled Leather CD Case

created at: 10/18/2010

We love the idea of putting something cool and digital, like a CD, inside a rustic, hand-hewn leather home. As the designer and author Elizabeth says, ” This is an instance when my excessive love for prettiness wins out over practicality, utility, and common sense. I already had a CD case – a perfectly good one I’d had since high school. But its cover was nylon and plastic and – well, not hand-tooled leather. This is a makeover, and an impractical one at that – not a made-from-scratch project – but it sure is nicer to reach for a ‘How to speak Italian’ CD in the car now.”
