  1. Step 1 Acquista la pelle grezza in un negozio di forniture per bricolage.
    Embossing does not work on already treated leather or accessories.
  2. Step 2 Trova uno stampo di metallo resistente o un timbro di metallo apposito per la pelle.
    You can use an everyday item or buy a leather mold online with a design of your choice.You can buy custom leather stamps from sellers on Etsy.
    • If you use an everyday metal object, make sure it has raw-cut edges, rather than a rounded design.This will allow your shape to appear more pronounced on the skin.
  3. Step 3 Liscia la tua porzione di pelle grezza su un piano di lavoro.
    The front side should face up.It should be placed near the edge of a table to which you can attach a sturdy vise.
  4. Step 4 Inumidisci una spugna.
    It doesn't have to be soaked, so squeeze it several times.
  5. Step 5 Spazzola la pelle con la spugna in modo uniforme.
    Move the skin so that it can be placed under the clamp.
  6. Step 6 Posiziona il timbro metallico piatto o l'oggetto di metallo nel punto in cui vuoi imprimere il tuo stampo.
  7. Step 7 Sistema il piedino superiore della morsa al centro dell'oggetto metallico.
    Tighten the vise as much as possible until it locks.
  8. Step 8 Rimuovi la morsa dopo 20 minuti.
    Finish with leather finish if you want to improve the durability of the design and the surface of the leather.
    • The finish should be applied once embossing is complete, and before sewing or assembling your complete project.

  1. Step 1 Acquista un set di stampigliatura online o in un negozio di bricolage.
    Buy 3D molds with a cylinder that can fit into each of the flat molds.You can buy personalized ones online or start with a set of alphabet letters.
    • Make sure the cylinder fits your molds.The cylinder is the piece you use to imprint the shape of the mold onto the leather.
  2. Step 2 Sistema il pezzo di pelle grezza su un tavolo da lavoro piatto.
    Make sure the front of the skin is facing up.Decide where to stamp your design.
  3. Step 3 Pulisci la superficie della pelle con una spugna leggermente inumidita.
    If the water drastically changes the color of your skin, wait for it to dry a bit.
  4. Step 4 Posiziona lo stampo di metallo sulla pelle nel punto in cui desideri ottenere il disegno.
  5. Step 5 Inserisci il cilindro metallico al centro del timbro.
    Hold it firmly with one hand.
  6. Step 6 Colpisci più volte la parte superiore del timbro con il mazzuolo di legno.
    Make sure you don't move the stamp as you strike it.You can remove the stamp, see if the image is imprinted deep enough, and put it back in place to continue.
    • It takes some practice to learn how hard the tone should be struck.
  7. Step 7 Ripeti l'operazione con altri stampi se vuoi ottenere un disegno più complesso.
    Use a finishing product when you have completed your embossing and before assembling your final project.
    • You can also apply leather dye to the embossed design to make it more interesting.Any alcohol-based stain can be applied before finishing.
