Where can I get LEATHER scraps?

Question

Hey I make stuff out of leather. I need lots of scraps. Really I am just making samples now and I will buy in bulk later. Everyone has told me to contact furniture makers but there are not a lot around here. Where else can I get them? I am willing to pay I just need a lot. Please help???

Oh I need all colors... especially green pink and orange

You can get them cheap to free

Check your local government listing, there may be a place, like one who make boots, that has leather scrap for free.

Answer 3

I don't know where you are but close to me (Ohio) there is a leather jacket and coat shop, mostly for biker type leather, but i've seen pink and other color leather there. Chuck Neal Leathers , Chillicothe, Ohio. There is probably a similar shop near you. I've bought scrap from them. Good luck!

Answer 4

I've always had good luck on Ebay. It's kind of hit-or-miss, but if you start out buying scraps then it's a good way to make contacts for bigger purchases later.

There are also some really great sites. Leather can be expensive - especially good leather in colors. Buying more will help you save some money. :)
