I use saddle leather for hinges for many different things, boxes, books, baskets, etc.

Here's a page from a google search that has many, many different applications.

https://www.google.com/search?q=leather+hinges&hl=en&prmd=imvns&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=VCeQT7H7K6WqiQKC2ZzpAg&ved=0CHkQsAQ&biw=1024&bih=632

And here's a link to ehow on how to make them. It's really simplified, but you can expand it from here.

If you use a router to cut away some of the wood, the leather hinge can set into the wood and look very smooth.

I cannot master those things that I have not tried.

My favorite? HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!
Quilting
Hand Quilting
Sewing
Doll Making
Notice all of them involve a sewing machine?
I also love to needle tat, crochet and paint. Oh there's just too many to name.

If I had no problem with time and doing those pesky chores and had plenty of money I'd be quilting most days, when I got a bit bored doing that I'd probably be knitting/crocheting or trying to paint (I'm not very good but I sure like the One Stroke method). After that would be making cards. And yes, gardening can be creative too so add that in the mix.

Good boy Hobbs! I love and miss you.

I love too many things too. I love to bake, quilt (hand), watercolor paint, crochet, garden and sit and chat with friends.
