The settings will really depend on the leather you are using, but I ended up using speed of 1, pressure of 8, and blade depth of 7-8.Ĥ| After you’ve prepped your leather, we need to design our rhinestone template. I made mine 4.5″ x 1.5″.ģ| Using your deep cut blade, cut out the leather. If you are using a really glossy leather, the fabric support sheet does a great job holding it in place.Ģ| Background scan your leather and arrange the cuff rectangles into place.

I like to use my standard mat with the glossier side of the leather facedown. Here are a few other things you will need.ġ| Begin by prepping your leather for the cuffs. Can we agree on that? :)įor this project, you’ll need the Brother Rhinestone Kit to design and cut your rhinestone template for placement.

Leather and rhinestones? A perfect pair! I love the durability of the leather for these napkin cuffs - they fit the fall weather and transition into the winter holidays perfectly as well! The rhinestones are like idyllic snow: not muddy and melting and not -30 degrees…but sparkling white with the sun out and 32 degree temps. I’m really excited about today’s project! If you know me at all, you know I love using leather in so many different ways, and I really love to mix and match materials that might not always be cohesive in everyone’s mind.
