Classic red leather bow shape

I suppose it’s a girly, girly thing but I’ve always loved having bows on things.  As soon as I began working with leather, bows were one of the first designs I experimented with.  Of course the leather pleats beautifully (with some hefty encouragement and very, very strong thread).  So I made  hairslides, bow brooches and clip-on bow ties.  The leather keeps its shape perfectly.

Then the bows started popping up all over the darn place.  They turned up on diaries, memo pads, journals and address books – even on little business card holders (a personal favourite!)

The red leather bows have been pretty popular so I’m now trying out different colours – wahoo!
