Making a deck box



step 1: measure your deck and allow ¼Th of an inch on each side
step 2: use a ruler to make your six sides and one extra piece for a flap
step 3: once all of your sides are drawn, carefully cut everything out and try to keep them even
step 4: punch holes anywhere 2 pieces of leather will be attached, make sure your holes on both of the sides match up because you will need to lace or stitch them together later
step 5: attach all of the punched sided with lace and check to see if everything fits in the box or not
step 6: assuming everything fit and you didn't have to start over like I did , add Velcro for your clasp and you're done


Materials-
leather sheers
leather lace
dyes (optional)
stamps (optional)
leather hole punch
Velcro (or anything you want to use as a clasp)
