Description

Bring handcrafted warmth to a living room, office, guest room, or seasonal table with the Autumn Bloom Leather Tissue Box Cover. This original Old Line Seasonal Collection pattern uses a one-piece side wrap, a stitched top panel with a rounded tissue opening, and an open bottom that slides over a standard cube tissue box. Optional lower corner tabs add an antique-brass accent, or they can be omitted for a quieter all-stitched build.

The construction is designed for an intermediate leatherworker. Four optional decorative layouts – Sunflower Bloom, Oak & Acorn, Maple Leaf Swirl, and Pumpkin Vine – are included as realistic examples plus black-line tracing patterns. Leather tooling itself is an intermediate-to-advanced skill and takes time, patience, and
lots of practice. Buyers should practice the chosen layout on scrap vegetable-tanned leather before attempting the final project pieces.

The standard pattern is sized around common cube tissue boxes, but the instructions also include a custom-sizing formula and strongly recommend a paper mock-up before cutting final leather.
