Everyday Cosplay - Making a Leather Corset Belt Inspired by Tauriel from The Hobbit

I designed and made a leather corset belt inspired by Tauriel from The Hobbit movies. In this tutorial I'll walk you through my whole leatherworking process to make the belt. I tooled the design into the leather and used dye and antique to add life and color to the design.
