DIY: Business Card Holder

So you wanted some more DIY right? Well here's one for ya! Sorry in advance for the dark-ish photos! 

Supplies:

- a sharpie or chalk (I chose sharpie)

- a faux leather, or real leather (I had this skirt lying around for months without use) 

- Studs

- a link/circle 

- A chain (not shown below) 

HOW TO:

Step One:

- cut out a rectangle of sufficient size for your business card. I decided to exaggerated the size of the rectangle, just in case any mistakes occurred. 

Step 2:

- Fold one edge of leather up to where you want it to cover the card. 

- Make sure to measure approximately how many cards you want in your holder (I chose to have about   25 cards, I didn't want this super huge bulky holder. But that's just me) 

Step 3:

- Once you've decided how many cards, place the cards on the leather

- Fold the leather up- take the cards out, pin the leather together and sew one side

- Put the cards back in pouch, measure how wide you want your holder

- Take the cards back out, pin and sew

- Place the cards back to see if they fit correctly

Step 4:

- Cut other the desired size for the flap

- Optional: I cut mine with a circular edge. I used a something that had the circle bottom, traced and cut

- Piece a tiny hole on the side of the holder with a pin or anything sharp

- Put a link/ring through it, connect it with the chain 

- Measure and repeat to the other side

Step 5:

- Add studs to the center of the flap

- Optional: you can put the whole flap with studs if you like- go crazy! 

Woohoo, and so concluded today's DIY! 

Hope you guys found it useful!

I'm going to finish up some homework, and then head over to the library- wah T^T

Enjoy your sunday!
