Description

Journal Makers Oil Tan Bundle
30-35 sq ft bundle of assorted oil tan leather ideal for journals. Weights range from 2.5 oz. up to 5-6 oz.

We're always looking for ways to make your life a little easier! How many of you have wanted to experiment with different, unique oil tans for journal covers and other small projects, but didn't want to have to buy the whole side? 


What makes this bundle such a big deal and incredible value? How about the fact that you get a total of 30-35 sq ft of really cool oil tanned leather, consisting of 6-8 different pieces that average approximately 3-6 sq ft each. You might get a piece or two that's not a true oil tan, that we feel has enough of the same properties and was cool enough to fall into the SLC definition of Oil Tanned Leather. Normally, you'd spend about the same amount of money for a single side of oil tan, and be limited to the ONE color and style for multiple projects. That's ok if that's what you're looking for, but we wanted to give you options! Getting several different oil tans for one incredible price allows you to create more diverse projects that will appeal to a broader market!


In case you didn't know journals have been, and still are one of the hottest gift items in the leather world today. They're being sold by national book and gift stores all over the country, for prices that are (in my opinion) just crazy! Many of the journals available today are made from some of the exact same leathers that come in these bundles, and people that buy them seem to not really care so much at all for perfect construction techniques. The most popular ones seem to be fairly rough, and made from some sort of distressed leather. Some have no sewing at all, (just a bit of lacing) and many have no real closure. They simply tie or wrap them with a leather lace. Pretty darned good for about 1 square foot of leather!!!


Great for journal covers, possible bags, messenger bags, hand bags, clutches, wristbands, cuffs, personal accessories, and perhaps even backpacks! FYI: These leathers would also be a dream to use a wood burner on! - Kevin

Meh?🫤

"First time I ordered most of the leather was nice? This time I got two black or nearly black and 3 very small pieces. I have been a customer of Springfield for years, always a good bet. This time not so much might get 3 journals total. When they say some are 3 square feet they are cutting it close!"

Happy Newbie!!

"I received my oil-tanned bundle this morning and as my first foray into leathercrafting, I am so excited to work with this beautiful bundle of goodness. I chose this bundle for the quality, amount, and variety for the price. As a newbie in this craft, I’m grateful for the variety and quality on which to learn. There are some beautiful journals ahead and whatever else I can think of to do with it. I love having the different textures and colors to play with. I have a feeling I’ll be back sooner than later!! Thank you for such a cool bundle!! ♊️"

Newb at leatherworking but feels like a great deal!

"New to leatherworking, but the pieces I received seem like some very decent quality and a good variety! Not just a bag of earth tones, got a really nice deep red as well as an embossed alligator print. Sizes are all really decent as well! Will definitely purchase again!"

Jarad M. (5/5)

Really nice variety

"I really like this bundle! I got a couple pieces that were not oil tan, like the description said, but they are really good quality and I'm glad I got them. Everything was a lot bigger than I expected so I am very happy that I added this to my order last minute. I received a good variety of colors, weights, and textures which is exactly what I hoped for. This is a great deal if you're looking for a bundle of good quality leather that is not too expensive. My first order from slc, I was still very new to leather and didn't know what to order so I bought the ugly leather bundle. It had some nice pieces, but half of it was not very good. If you're looking for a starter bundle or just want to add some variety to your collection, get this."
