Make Your Own Leather Card Wallet

This DIY kit lets you sew a compact sleeve card wallet yourself, using full grain leather. The finished piece holds four cards (3 card slots plus 1 pocket) and measures 11.5 cm wide by 8.5 cm high. It is a practical, slim way to carry your essentials, and you make it with your own hands.

• Free step-by-step video instructions, filmed by experienced craftswomen

Skill Level and Process

This kit is suitable for beginners. The leather is already cut and holes are pre-punched, so you focus on stitching and assembly. You will learn the saddle stitch—a traditional leatherworking technique that is easy to pick up—and the steps to put the wallet together. The video tutorials guide you through each stage, making it a rewarding project for your first leatherwork.

Tools You Might Need

The kit includes all necessary tools, so you can start right away. No additional equipment is required.

Material and Dimensions

The wallet is made from full grain leather, the strongest and most durable part of cowhide. The leather comes from Italian tanneries, ensuring a high-quality base for your work. The finished dimensions are: width 11.5 cm, height 8.5 cm (1 inch = 2.54 cm). It has 3 card slots and 1 extra pocket, with no lining.

Available colors: All Black✪DIY Kits, Most Black✪DIY Kits, and Most Brown✪DIY Kits. Choose the option that fits your style.

Why Hand Stitching Lasts

Hand saddle stitching creates a stronger seam than machine stitching. Each stitch is pulled tight and locked, so if one thread breaks, the rest of the seam holds. This makes your handmade wallet more durable and longer-lasting than a factory-made one.
