How to make leather bottoms for clogs
I just made some felted clogs for my daughter, she wants leather bottoms on them so she can wear them outdoors. We have a leather outlet near us, I can buy scrap leather, enough for 2 soles, for about $3.00. I have the leather all cut, but I'm not sure how to make the little holes in them that are needed to sew them on. Does any one know of a leather punch ( and what size) I can use to make the holes?
Thanks.

I found this site. They aren't full bottoms, but it might help.

Here are some pre-made ones that you can either buy or maybe figure out how to do your own from them.
