Tandy Leather would be a good place to start. Tandy sells strips of leather in various widths and lengths and you can get the clasps at most hardware stores or even recycle a clasp off an old leash. I buy hides and cut my own strips and straps, but for small projects you're better off buying pre-cut strips. A tack shop might be able to help you out with leather strips if there is one in your area.

Thanks Ingrid H I really want to make them something I don't know if there is a Track shop near me but I sure will look into it, if not then i will buy it from the web, and I have a couple of clasps around my house Baby Girl used to brim me her leash so that I would take her for a walk, even though it was a cute thing about her, the leash didn't always make it back to me complete

Here's another quick project you can do with the technique in this thread. They are called "tabs" and are used to get a quick handle on your dog. You can make two and use them to make a coupler for walking two dogs on the same leash, or just hook onto the end of one tab.

Neat! I'd never thought of using two tabs as a coupler.

Very cool Ingrid! I would have never thought of that either, but it's a great idea!
