What Leather Should I Use for Wallets?
Making Wallets is one of the first things many people who are getting into leather working start with. Picking the right leather is important. This guide will help you decide which leather to pick.
Leather Lady is not a giant warehouse shipping random pieces off a shelf. We are a small business that works directly with customers to help them find the right leather for their projects. If you are making products to sell or recovering furniture, the details matter—size, color, and usable pieces all make a difference.
When you tell us what you need, we take the time to listen. If you need a piece at least 18 × 24 inches, we make up your order and ensure the leather you receive actually meets that size. Looking for a certain color? Browse the colors we carry and message us what you’re hoping for. Upon request, we can even send a photo of your leather before it ships.
Pricing matters too. Located in High Point, North Carolina, "the furniture capital of the world", we work directly with manufacturers to purchase overruns and closeouts. The drawback is that our colors are constantly changing. The advantage is that we often have more colors to choose from than anyone else, and we’re able to offer high-quality leather at very competitive prices.
So whether you are looking for leather remnants or full hides, we are here to help.
That level of communication and care simply doesn’t exist on large marketplaces. And once customers experience the difference, they rarely go back.
