Leather Dog Piggy Bank Pattern – Steampunk & Floral Designs

Leather Dog Piggy Bank Pattern – Steampunk & Floral Designs

If you’re looking for a leather dog piggy bank pattern that’s truly unique, this project will be the star of your leathercraft collection. I’ve created not just one, but two spectacular designs — a bold steampunk dog leather pattern full of metallic details and vintage charm, and a delicate floral dog leather pattern with soft, ornamental beauty.

Both piggy banks are crafted in the shape of a dog and stand approximately 23 cm (9.06 in.) tall. They are designed for experienced leathercrafters who enjoy detailed work, creative freedom, and eye-catching results.

The steampunk version is my personal playground for creativity — I often use old clock mechanisms, brass gears, and even vintage metal parts I’ve found in an old barn. Steampunk is the perfect style to let your imagination run wild, so you can add as many unique elements as you like. The floral version, on the other hand, is elegant and decorative, ideal for those who love refined patterns and timeless beauty.

Materials You’ll Need

Leather 1.6–1.8 mm (4–4.5 oz.) – firm enough to keep its shape.
You will also need:

1. For the basic model: 12+ rivets. For the steampunk dog, I used much more additional hardware — it’s up to your creativity!

2. Buckle 20 mm (0.79 in.) – 1 piece for the collar and 2 pieces for the harness.

Creative Possibilities

With the decorative leather dog pattern, you can explore countless ideas. The steampunk version looks fantastic in dark brown or black leather with brass or copper accents. For the floral design, lighter leather shades or even hand-dyed colors make the embossed flowers stand out beautifully.

Whether you want a bold conversation piece or a refined decorative item, this DIY leather bag pattern offers room for personal touches. Mix techniques — tooling, painting, riveting — to create a one-of-a-kind piggy bank.
