This is the instructional video for the round braided leather keychain kit that can be purchased through my website www.brassandblade.com. This is a fun, simple project for those looking to learn a more advanced, decorative braid. This braid is great for horse equipment, decorative and comfortable handles on bags and purses, and any number of other craft applications.
Omg instant sub. Your voice is so soothing, the atmosphere so relaxing
Very nice!!! Thank you!! I'm going to try this as a handle for a purse that I'm making for my wife. Wish me luck!!
I love it as handles! Make sure you do the final step and get it as long as it’ll go before you attach to the bag- if not they will get longer with time and that might not be what you want. Good luck! You also might need to tie each individual strand in a little bundle so it doesn’t get all tangled up as you go
Awesome tutorial! Loved how you named and used colors to demonstrate! I will be doing this as soon as I get home. Thanks again
You are a wonderful teacher! I have tried for years to learn this braid! 3 minutes and I have done one. It’s not the prettiest. It is, however, further than I have gotten before. Thank you! ❤️
Brittany- have watched a good half dozen + vids here similar to yours here. Far and away you are the best at explaining and showing how to do this! Awesome work- Thanks!
Great work! I have worked with leather for many years, but always forget how to do this. Your video helps me get started again. Thanks.
My grandfather taught me how to do this, haven’t done it in a long time I needed a refresher, you brought so many memories back, thank you
a longer one would make a great head band. great job on the key chain
Yay I did it!!!!! Thanks for keeping it simple.
Awesome!! That’s exciting
I like your video you explain it well good job I like it
Thank you 🙏🏻! The best tutorial! Absolutely perfect and i understood, finally 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you so much for sharing, great video, I’m gonna try this.
I watched several videos until I finally found one that made sense...yours. Please make more.
Thank you for your effort Brittany, many people tried to explain how to do it but yours is the best, very simple and easy to understand, others are very confusing,, thanks again.
Thank you! I agree, I had a hard time following other videos years ago when I was learning.
Thanks, Brittany, for the excellent instruction; very helpful video.
Thank you! :)
Hi Brittany. Thanks a lot for sharing . I hv learnt this technique. U hv told in such a simple way.
Thank you so much for shearing your skills. It was a pleasure watching your video. Good luck and keep up the good work..
did you know you can roll the finished weave on a flat surface with a board or a book . it will smooth everything out and give a more uniform look.
Thank you, so simply and clearly explained
i have the book on braiding leather and this helped me significantly more, thank you!
Thanks for the weaving tip!
Hi Britz..loved how you explained..easy to understand thanks..pls download more videos about leather..
The diamond pattern is fabulous. I know one clasp that is a snake head and tail. My state's pro baseball team is the Diamondbacks [a type of rattlesnake] and their colors are red and black. So thanks to you I'm ready to know.
Thank you so much!!!!!
Than you so much! I love how you did it and the explanation. Seen some others and nobody explained it as perfectly like you did 🙏 I'm planning to make a little gift for my partner, wish me luck 😘
Can you make A horse halter out of a braided leather robe
Best tutorial instructions I have seen. Very clear, methodical and easy to follow. Do you have a video of braiding the bolo tie round rope made from 1/8” leather lacing?
La calidad de tus videos esta asombrosa, primera vez que te veo y desde ya te digo que soy nuevo suscriptor. Gracias por hacerlo tan bien para nosostros excelente trabajo. The quality of your videos is amazing, the first time I see you and from now on I tell you that I am a new subscriber. Thank you for doing so well for us, excellent work.
that looked so easy to do... I'm using wax cord for my first try of this kind of braid, it looked so much better with flat leather strands :D
Very very nicely explained, I have made two of them soon after your video. Great job Thanks
I’m so happy to hear it!
Can’t wait for more videos ,,!
Thank you very much for this technique ! I just wonder how long the leather threads should be, to make à mens bracelet..
This is great you get to LEARN the 4 Platt round Braid !! With this video you can go to a 4 Platt Reiata ... Thank you very much

Thank you a lot. Your way is the easiest.
Thank you for simple clear directions. I’m wanted to make something for the men in my life for Christmas.
Round braiding gifts for people has saved me for many birthdays and Christmas’s! Happy holidays, I hope you make the gifts :)

I’d like to learn how to braid a pocket watch fob . The one I have was my grand father’s and it has 2 braided barrels that slide
Very cool!! So cool that you just got a new subscriber, yeah you totally did!!
Linda ella y linda maestra. Saludes.
Thank you thank you so much i am happy
Thanks
This was a great tutorial, thanks! How would one do a similar one with 3 strips instead of 4?
Hi, thank you! I’m unaware of any method for doing a round braid with three strands. A three strand braid typically lays flat.

that was cool
Muy bien
Great explanation ! A few questions, What kind of leather is that,? Looks very soft and mailable.! Could you use leather cording with this technique
It’s a lightweight top grain cow leather. You can use anything as long as it’s flat, not square (I know some leather lacing and cording comes square)
hi how many mm or cm was that leather?
Is there a rule of thumb for the length of the initial strips to get a specific length finished braid?
That is a great question and I dont know the answer to it! Thicker strips will make for a shorter finished product, while thin strips keep it long, but skinny. I always just start with plenty of length to make sure I have enough.
Loved your video, I looked at several others and they were too confusing!! Please let me know how I can order your leather kits. Thank you and take care
Thank you so much! Here is a link to my website with the leather kit: www.brassandblade.com/hidden-store/Keychain-Kit-p192038755
You seem to have a nice informative camera presence, looks like you do a lot of projects, so why only 2 videos?
Благодарю😊
❤❤❤❤👌
thankyouuuuuuuuu
And do you have an iron at home? And do you use it at least sometimes??
Nice, thanks for the explanations ! What is the initial length of the leather strips ? Thanks
Hi! I use a length that is about three times longer than I want the final piece to be. If your strips are thin, you don’t need them to be that long. But since the width of your four strips changes, how much you need a hard question to answer, I tend to errr on too long rather than too short. Hope this helps! My keychain strips are 24”-30”
@@badavis9 Thank you for this clarification, it will definitely help me.
What type of leather and how thick is it?
Can this also be used to make a necklace? And would I end it the same way?
Hi! You’d have to play around with how to finish it nicely for a necklace. When people make bolo ties (essentially a leather braided necklace) they are often finished with silver tips specifically designed for them. If it’s a more “rustic” necklace you could definitely finish it this way.
Could I ask you where you get these leather strips from?
Hi, I make them by cutting strips out of full hides that I buy for my leather bag business.
Nice video. 👍🖖 But that aren't alligator clips, they are foldback bulldog clips or similar, alligator clips are electric alligator clips or hair alligator clips and what ever they call other clips with teeth. 🤔
👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Hey I have a question, what are they used for?
this class is for a small closed loop to hold your keys. Round braiding is used for making handles, rope, and some fancy horse tack.
Where can I get that size thickness of lace
Hey! Sorry for the late reply. I’m really not a computer person. I make my own strips. You can cut them with a rotary cutter out of a larger piece of leather or try a leather supply store online.
what weight and width of leather did you use?
Approximately 3mm leather just under 1cm wide.
You can go a bit heavier weight but if your strands get too wide it starts to get weird
thank you!
@@badavis9thank you, good to know.
😍😍💕💕💕💕💕🇧🇷🇧🇷
What size leather do I need to buy like width wise and thickness
The Power of the Dog brought me here.
Ha! I just got the reference after seeing the movie!
What’s this braid called?
4 strand round braid
You can not see clear...camera wrong
There has got to be easier videos than this. How can we can see what you're doing?? It just magically makes a braid and i can't see how youre just making it appear. 😢
Everybody learns in such different ways, I hope you found a video that works for you and got to make a braid!
