This is an awesome design. Made from a length of rich brown, leather scrap, that is cut freeform with slight varying width, which I stamped hearts and infinity spirals into (see detail 4).
The fastening is a button hole slit at one end and a hunk of a red/black stone (not sure of the geological name—see detail 3).
The decorative strand is composed of various bits and bobs.
