I got this tiny bag for free at a book store for spending too much money there & I haven't really used it for anything since I got 3 of them :P On the top part of the bag, it had a small panel that was faux leather & I decided I wanted to use that bit for a leather bun cuff I saw on Pinterest. I didn't take any photos while making it - but it's pretty easy so I drew some pictures up on paint :D With a change in the length - this could totally be a studded bracelet :P

Behold - the faux leather panel on my itty bitty bag
I cut two strips since it wasn't very wide. But if you have a wider set of leather, chop off about 25 or 26cm. My strips are just under 2cm wide
If you have a long enough strip of leather..ignore this. I had to sew mine together. you can't see the stitching when i wear it though :3
Stud away! Squares = square studs Circles = Screw on spikes If you have one of those cool hole pokers that look like a small turkey baster but more violent..that would help. I didn't so I poked holes using those screw drivers meant to repair glasses.
Sew on the snap buttons as seen in red. and BAM! wear that business
