Griftertig Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 So I've been given an old leather cartridge box holder which holds 4 boxes of cartridges. Only problem is its got someone else's initials stamped on the front and back. Anyone have any experience of covering up previously embossed initials?? Ta in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saltings Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 had some leather ovals made with my initials embossed and stitched over existing initials choose a different colour leather can set it off nicely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humperdingle Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 Do you have any pictures? Really depends on the type of leather and embossing method. You may be easier replacing the bits with the stamps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ta in advance If you don't get it sorted, my good lady can take care of it for you. She could stitch a suede oval over the top of the old initials ,and pyrograph your initials on to it ,alternatively ,she could just stitch a blank leather oval over the top. Just drop me a pm if we can be of assistance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quentyn Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 there is another option - you could change your name by deed poll to match the existing initials ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
