Tips For Cutting Fish Leather
Today on the Dazzle-it Blog I featured this leather kumihimo necklace. It is showcasing our Instant Glam Arrow Bezel which was designed by Fernando DaSilva.
I chose to line the bezel with our Second Skin Fish Leather. In order to cut a unique shape, I first photocopied my bezel so I had a paper pattern.
I cut out my paper template and tested it in my bezel to ensure it did indeed fit.
Then I taped the pattern to my fish leather. The tape holds the paper in place making it easier to cut out. You don’t have to worry about tape residue because you won’t be using the taped section.
Fish Leather Wrapped Pendant
Fernando DaSilva created a wonderful necklace pendant by wrapping a strip of fish leather around a donut bead. I never would have imagined that you could combine pearls, leather cording and fish leather so beautifully!
This is the Natural Fish Leather.
Fish Leather In Fabulous Colours
When Fernando Dasilva designed this necklace last fall, little did I know that Emerald would be selected as the 2013 colour of the year by Pantone. I loved Fernando’s necklace the minute I saw it. He wrapped a wooden bead with fish leather in a way I would have never thought about.
Adding some green to your wardrobe or home decor will “enhances our sense of well-being, balance and harmony.”
Although listed in our catalogue as turquoise, this colour does tend to show more of it’s green side with the addition of the white black and green rattail necklace Fernando braided.
Lucky Green Fish Leather
Here is a second version of Fernando Dasilva’s wrapped pendant design. Featuring Metal Complex Fish leather and some of the fabulous colours in the Dazzle-it Rattail cord collection.
Of course….the extra crystal embellishments makes this piece as glamorous as Fernando Dasilva!
Fish Leather and Crystal Chain
Fernando Dasilva really surprised me with this necklace. It never would have occurred to me to wrap the leather around a wood bead like this. Isn’t it gorgeous?
The addition of the crystal chain makes it so glamorous!
Hot Red Fish Leather Earrings!
Here is another wonderful sample of what happens when you give Fernando Dasilva fish leather to experiment with.
The new Second Skin fish leather is available in a glossy or suede finish.
I love how Fernando used these fabulous filigree cones for his accent.
These are perfect for Valentines Day!
Fish Leather In A Handmade Bezel Ring
This ring showcases a wonderful piece of red glossy fish leather.
I don’t waste a single piece of fish leather. This small portion has already been glued to a thick piece of felt.
I cut out a one inch square and then used Quick Grip to glue my felt and fish leather inside my bezel ring.
I can’t begin to describe how great this looks! The photo does not capture the texture in the leather that you would see if you were holding this in your hand.
