The Perfect Camera Strap

A simple leather strap … love this one by etsy seller, Artemis Leatherware.

Embellished Fabric straps … Some sewing required pleated fabric camera strap, tutorial here.

Canvas and leather straps are very Hamptons chic and all over the internet right now.

Braided straps … be still, my heart.  I love the boho hippie vibe.  I might be sold.
