SOLAZUL HANDMADE | Urrao Single Thread Handwoven Crossbody
Regular price $299.95 Sale price $179.95 $179.95To make this traditional handcrafted crocheted bag can take more than one month of work. The bags are all 100% handmade by the indigenous artisans of the Wayuu community of the La Guajira Peninsula, Colombia.
Single Thread bags are made with a much finer cotton thread. They take longer to weave than the double thread bags and have a tighter structure, yet still, evoke the handwoven look. This results in a beautiful bag unlike anything machine-made.
Sol Azul Handmade is the brainchild of social entrepreneur Rosanna Redondo. Like many talented women, Rosanna started Sol Azul handmade as a COVID project when she was visiting Colombia during the lockdown.
She works closely with the Wayuu women near her own childhood home and adds her sophisticated eye for detail to develop some truly beautiful and totally wearable cultural fashion pieces.
Every single bag is different and unique and is easy to recognise for its colours and intricate designs.

Perhaps you're looking at crafts for Mother's Day gifts but your young-at-heart mum is not quite ready to start crochet. Your partner, wife or mum will love making it herself or won't quite believe it when you tell her you made it with love for her.
J Tanner's shoulder bag is a truly personal birthday, thank you, or Mother's Day gift and was designed to bring classic flair to a modern lifestyle. With an adjustable leather shoulder strap, classic brass metal hardware, one large compartment for storing your goods, and a quick access pouch on the back (perfect as a small cardholder, or for slim documents), this shoulder bag is built for life on the go.
Choose between a luscious brown or go for the purity of the Fora Studios exclusive Natural vegetable-tanned leather option.
The simple, minimal aesthetic of the designs shows off the quality of the vegetable-tanned leather. And your brilliant handiwork, of course.
J Tanner DeConstructed kits contain all you need, along with easy-to-follow video guides, for successful leathercrafting, no matter your skill level.

THOUSAND | Heritage Bike Helmet in Carbon Black
Regular price $149.00 $149.00Perhaps you haven't bought a proper bike since watching a re-run of BMX bandits. Perhaps other commitments have meant your days of donning the lycra on those long weekend rides a la Giro d'Italia will have to wait a little. Or perhaps you need an excuse to buy an adult skateboard.
Thousands Carbon Black is for those who like to keep it simple and safe for any type of ride. A local nature ride with the kids? Or perhaps you are eeting up with friends down at the local or an office work day across town with the e-bike. The Carbon Black is for you.
Never staid nor boring the name Carbon Black whispers high tech but the design takes its cues from vintage motorcycle design, resulting in an attractive matt-black shell with white trim and outstanding safety features.
Carbon Black is also a reference to Thousand brand’s policy of offsetting 110 percent of all the carbon emissions producing in the making of their products. Thousand are a sustainable company whose pioneering policies have set off a chain reaction in the helmet world.
That’s a load off your mind. As is the dial-fit system, which allows you to make small, precise adjustments for maximum safety. Thousand has secured safety certification worldwide, including Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 2063:2008 (bike helmets) and ASTM 1492 (skateboarding and rollerskating). Even your fingers are covered, with a one-hand magnetic buckler fastener that’ll save you from pinches.

Looks aren’t everything, we know. But if they can help persuade people to protect themselves by looking cool, we’re on board. Thousand founder Gloria Hwang was inspired to offer casual riders of bikes, skateboards and scooters a safe and good-looking helmet option after a friend was tragically killed in a cycling accident without protection.
Check out the Fora Studios' brand showcase to learn more about Thousand's 110% commitment to Climate Positive initiatives, and more on founder Gloria Hwang's inspiring story.

MISC GOODS Co. | Wallet in Tan Leather
Regular price $99.95 $99.95
The Misc Goods Co. wallet is designed and made for the minimalist. It comfortably holds about 15 credit cards, ID, and loose notes without adding any additional bulk to your pocket.
Made from oil-tanned natural leather and golden waxed cotton thread, the wallet is burned with safe-keeping instructions.
This treatment changes leather, impregnating it with oil which hydrates it, essentially sealing the molecules of the hide with a layer of fats and coating them.
Vegetable - or "veg-tanned" leather as you'll hear it called by those in the industry - is treated with the barks of trees as opposed to chrome tanning, which uses soluble chromium sulfate.
Tanning hide creates leather by altering its protein structure, making it more durable and less susceptible to decomposition, and sometimes colouring it.
A number of finishes and textures can be achieved from sturdy and strong for furniture to that buttery creamy quality we love in fine accessories.
The best leather usually depends on where the hide is taken from and what its purpose is. For wallets one should look for 4-5 oz, or 3-4 oz for a mini-wallet or card case. This weight reference is a guide to the thickness of the leather. 1 ounce equals 1/64 of an inch thickness.
The below infographic courtesy of Portland Leather Co. illustrates the different weights required for various projects.
Of course, being a natural product, every leather grain is visually different as well as different to the touch.
For this reason, leather is usually graded as it is selected and sorted and this will reflect in the price of your finished item as does the skill of the craftsperson and the time they take to make the product.
Are you interested in making your very own leather wallet, handbag or purse? Why not try one of our ready to craft leathergoods kits. Make it for yourself, for a friend or give the kit to someone who would love an introduction to leathercraft.
