Your woodburning tool offers a quick and fun way to trick out your leather and suede accessories and garments. Use this technique to monogram a leather key fob, label a baseball glove with your child’s name, even camouflage a stain on a suede jacket by distracting the eye with decorative detail. And if you already sew or craft with leather, using a woodburning tool can add a whole new dimension to your projects.
