A quick, easy, and stylish way to collect all of your crap at the end of the day (cellphone, keys, wallet, change, etc.).

Step 1: Gather Materials

As always, the first step is to gather up your materials:
- 1 Iron
- 1 swatch leather or suede
- 1 tiny green tee shirt (for padding the iron on the suede, and yes, you must use green)
- 1 Pencil
- 1 measuring tape or ruler
- 1 pair scissors
- 4 2-pronged brad-style leather beads
- All of your pocket crap

Step 2: Cut and Form

I wanted my catch-all to be a square, but my suede piece was rectangular. A quick trim with the scissors fixed that problem.

Regardless of whether you choose a rectangle or a square, the next step is to measure, mark, and fold the sides in at 1 inch. Then use the iron (with tiny green t-shirt protector) to make a distinct crease on all 4 sides, as seen in the photo.

Step 3: Pinch and Poke

Next, pinch the corners where they intersect and poke the bead tips through. If your leather is too thick (or if you are a weakling), you may want to use the scissors (or a leather punch) to help you.

Just bend the two brad-style tabs together to secure.

Repeat this step for all 4 corners.
