Waxed canvas is the original water-resistant fabric. It's a densely-woven cotton fabric that has been saturated with wax, giving it an extra layer of protection. Waxed canvas shows scuffs, marks and creases that blend into a weathered patina with age.
Our leather is sourced locally at Oregon Leather, as well as from a tannery in Pennsylvania, and hand-selected for its quality. Our hides are cut into straps with a hydraulic press to ensure precision and consistency. NOTE: Our tan leather might feel stiff at first, but it will soften and darken to a lovely caramel brown with use.
Hardware can take a bag from looking homemade to truly professional—and it's not hard to do! With a few basic tools, you'll be able to set rivets, snaps, magnetic closures and more. All of our hardware is real metal and strong enough to hold up to years of wear and tear.
Incredible kit with stellar instruction by Ellie. I teach design classes and love thorough, well explained, detailed instructions. Both the pattern and the class made this build easy. With high quality kit pieces it made this bag a dream to make. On to the next. Thank you Ellie and Klum House.
The video made assembling and sewing the bag a breeze to get through. The instructions provided were easy to understand, provided great tips, and truly enhanced my experience making the Maywood bag. The video is professionally made and watching it on my iPad at my working station kept the project moving. Highly recommend.
The Maywood kit included everything I needed to make the bag and everything was already cut, marked and ready to go. It made it so easy to sew the bag together and took a lot less time than it would have taken if Iโd had to measure and cut all of the materials.
Oooh your finished bag is beautiful!
