Leather and suede, feathers and rivets - pick up these materials and go forward into the magical forest inhabited by fabulous creatures ...

JINN IN A FLASK
An ordinary thermos flawlessly turns into a stylish accessory for forest trips through the forest more often. Very practical strap, which is sewn last.
YOU NEED: suede size. OK. 30 x 35 cm, braid with pheasant feathers 5 cm wide, one end with a fastener, 30 cm long. 11 pyramidal rivets diam. 7 mm, sewing thread, glue stick, textile pencil, hole punch, riveting machine.

HOW TO MAKE: on the seamy side of the suede, draw a bottom for the diam. 10 cm, then the side of the thermos with a width of 27 cm and a length of 21 cm (or make a pattern according to the measurements taken from your thermos). Details cut out.
Stitch the edge 21 cm long face to face, the width of the seam is 5 mm. Stitch the bottom to the lower edge of the side. Glue the upper edge inwards to a width of 1 cm. On the upper edge, sew on the braid with feathers so that the end lying at the top can be tucked.
From the remnants of suede, cut a strip 1.5 cm wide for the strap, with a total length of 1 m. Stitch the details of the strip. Fold the strip in half lengthwise, stitch it with a zigzag. Sew the ends of the straps under 2 opposite sides of the upper edge. Break blocks at equal intervals along the top edge, see the step-by-step instructions at the end of the article.

HUNTING COSTUME JEWELERY
A necklace made of pheasant feathers, rivets and sequins will surely attract the attention of the opposite sex!
YOU NEED: suede size. OK. 20 x 40 cm, braid with pheasant feathers 5 cm wide, 30 cm long. Rep ribbon 1.5 cm wide, 90 cm long. Pyramid rivets (16 pieces of dia. 7 mm and 2 pieces of dia. 1 cm). A silver chain with a length of one and a half meters. 16 sequins, threads for sewing, textile glue, textile pencil, hole punch, riveting machine, needle for sewing leather.

HOW TO MAKE: Copy the pattern (photo on the left) and cut it out twice with a fold without allowances. Cut the rep ribbon into 2 identical parts. Glue one necklace to the wrong side of one part at one end of each part. Glue the details of the necklace to the wrong side.
Punch along the bottom edge approx. 30 holes (at different intervals from about 0.5 to 2 cm) along the edge. Start punching holes about 7 cm below the upper narrow side. Pass the silver chain crosswise through these holes. Sew sequins between the holes to fix the chain.
Stitch the ribbon with pheasant feathers on the upper edge of the necklace, tuck the ends on the narrow sides. Punch rivets at the top with equal intervals, see step-by-step instructions at the end of the article.

FOREST BRACELET
It's simple: rivets and sequins flicker mysteriously on a leather ribbon ...
YOU WILL NEED: for each bracelet a leather braid 1.3 cm wide, 45 cm long. 1 buckle with a peg, lintel width 1.3 cm. Sewing threads. Needle for sewing leather, awl, hole punch. Additionally for each bracelet with sequins approx. 40 sequins diam.1 cm, and for a bracelet with rivets 15 round rivets, dia. 1 cm. Textile pencil, riveting machine.

HOW TO MAKE: bracelet itself: punch a hole for the peg at a distance of 2 cm from the end of the braid. Wrap the end around the lintel of the buckle and sew it, for this, pierce the small holes with an awl. Cut the other end obliquely and punch 5 holes for the peg with an interval of 1 cm.
For a bracelet with sequins between the holes for the peg and the end with the clasp, sew the sequins so that they overlap slightly and partially protrude beyond the edges of the bracelet (also sew through the awl with piercing holes).
For a bracelet with rivets between the holes for the peg and the end with a buckle, punch rivets at regular intervals, see the step-by-step instruction at the end of the article.

HAVING BAG
Sandwiches or game in this bag? Who knows ... But in a bag made of suede, decorated with braid with pheasant feathers, many necessary trifles will fit.
YOU NEED: suede size. OK. 60 x 45 cm, braid with pheasant feathers 15 cm wide (one end with a tie), approx. 60 cm. Rep ribbon 4 cm wide, 60 cm long. 8 pyramidal rivets diam. 1 cm. Threads for sewing, glue stick, textile pencil, hole punch, riveting machine.
HOW TO MAKE: from suede, cut out 2 details of a bag 30 cm wide, 31 cm long and for handles strips 4 cm wide and a total length of 1 m.
Fold the bag details face to face, grind along the side and bottom edges (seam width 1 cm). Turn out the bag. Sew on the upper edge of the braid, tighten the upper end on the side seam.Stitch the ends of the rep ribbon to the width of the top edge of the bag. Iron allowances. Press the rep tape to a width of 1 cm with the wrong side inwards. Lay the tape around the upper edge: on the outside, 1 cm wide, on the inside, 3 cm wide. Stitch the outer edge of the tape to the edge.
Stitch suede strips for bag handles. Fold the strips in half lengthwise, stitch the edges and sew to the edge. Sew the ends of the handles to the side seams under the upper edge of the bag. At regular intervals along the upper edge of the bag to break through the blocks, see the step-by-step instructions below.RIP!
It is very simple to work on a machine that sets rivets! A few steps - and the leather braid with rivets is ready.

YOU WILL NEED: leather, rivets (upper and lower parts), rivet machine, measuring tape, hole punch, textile pencil.
STEP 1: with a textile pencil, apply marks on the top edge for punching rivets (in our case, 1 cm from the top edge with an interval of 3 cm).
STEP 2: mark the holes for rivets with a hole punch.

STEP 3: set the desired interval on the machine, then insert the rivets.
Step 4: set the upper part of the rivet on the skin, then press the lower part down.
STEP 5: turn the lever of the machine, thereby compressing (fixing) the upper and lower parts of the rivet.
