I recently picked up a press so that I can set my own rivets in house. The previous owner used it to make dog collars and had a few attachments that rounded the ends of the leather, which I acquired when I got the press. At the time I didn't realize just how useful these attachments would be. They give the ends a nice finished look and work perfectly for the handles on my new storage buckets.
I had been making my round buckets for quite a few years and took a break from them this past year. I am excited about the addition of the handles to these new ones. They look pretty great filled with knitting yarns too.

Welcome to the wonderful world of pressing. Everything looks great!
Thank you for introducing me to it! I had no idea I would love it so much.
Your blog is absolutely beautiful. You do a really great job of documenting your work, and the process along the way. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks Ann! That's very sweet.
Please tell me these buckets will be part of your fall/winter collection! Love the leather handles!
