Hello, I'm David from beautiful North Devon in England and I have been making since 2013. I used to have a lovely 'Persian stained' wallet and was wondering if anyone knew how to create this patterning? I tried a couple of methods but they were awful, as i didn't get the smokey effect.


My other question is has anyone found a supplier for French Saregum glue? I have searched all the usual online places. I have learnt so much from Philip over the last month, even though I am a veteran of 8 years. A huge thanks and worth every penny!

I tried something similar, but I'll give it a go.i don't fancy the oil based floating in water, it just forms puddles. Let you know if it works.
