Evancliffe Leathercraft will be providing our popular Leather Stamping Activity for visitors to Armed Forces Day at Blackhall Farm, Harperley Hall (DL15 8DN) on Saturday 29th June 2019.
Leather Stamping
We will have a whole range of leather shapes to choose from. You can add your own design using a variety of traditional stamp patterns, using them to make individual patterns or combining them to make more complicated designs. Be amazed as we add colour and see the how it highlights the pattern you have created.
