Mini Top Handle Leather Bag Charm DIY Kit – Hand Sewn, Top Grain Leather, 7 Colors

What You Make

This is a DIY leathercraft kit for a small, top-handle bag charm that you sew yourself. The finished charm can be attached to a larger bag or used as a keychain, adding a handcrafted touch to your everyday carry.

What's in the Kit

The kit includes all necessary materials and tools to complete the project:

• Pre-cut top grain leather panels
• Pre-punched holes for stitching
• Thread (default white; you can request a matching color in your order notes)
• Gold-tone hardware
• Needles
• Step-by-step instructions

No extra tools are required—everything you need is in the box.

Skill Level and Process

This kit is suitable for beginners. The leather pieces arrive pre-cut and pre-punched, so your main task is to stitch the panels together using the saddle stitch technique, then attach the hardware. The instructions guide you through each step, making it a manageable project for crafters of all abilities.

Materials and Dimensions

The leather is top grain, which is known for being soft, durable, and smooth. The kit is available in the following colors: Pink✪Leather DIY Kit, Navy blue✪Leather DIY Kit, Blue-Gray✪Leather DIY Kit, Taupe✪Leather DIY Kit, Black✪Leather DIY Kit, Brown✪Leather DIY Kit, and White✪Leather DIY Kit.

Size detail (1 inch = 2.54cm): W: 3.9 in, H: 2.9 in, D: 1.2 in.

Why Hand Stitching Lasts

This kit uses the saddle stitch—a hand-sewing technique where two needles pass through each hole from opposite sides. This creates a lock stitch that is more durable than machine stitching. If a thread breaks, the seam does not unravel, making hand-stitched leather goods last longer and age better.
