Leather Bracers and Shoulder Pauldrons

Come learn how the process of armor making begins as the designers at Ribbons and Rivets lead participants through making their own bracer and shoulder pauldron patterns that can later be transferred to leather. 

Session 1 will cover how to make a paper pattern that can be used not only for leather but also for foam or plastic. Participants will also learn about seam allowances, rigid crafting mediums, and adhesion methods. 

In session 2 participants will use the pattern they made to craft their own bracer out of leather.

All tools and materials are provided for this workshop, just bring a pair of hands.
