If you have an obsolete leather bag that you are going to throw away, or any other unnecessary item made of leather or leather substitute, you can not throw it away, but use it in needlework, for example, you can make a bracelet out of this thing. You can apply quite well-preserved pieces of leather, as well as the handle of a bag. To do this, carefully cut out all the suitable parts of the bag, and make a lace out of the handle, cutting off a thin line of skin from it.

contour acrylic paints on fabric;
scissors (preferably manicure with sharp tips);
ruler, pencil;
a sheet of paper or cardboard;
needle, thread (to match skin color).
