Well done, Milly! I love it. :)

I really like it. Oh, it's hard to criticize when there's not much to criticize on! :D

I have a few suggestions, though, to make it a little smoother. :D

Untried leather
This would, in my mind, be a bit smoother if you put 'New leather' or some variant thereof, I think that 'untried leather' may not be the best metaphor here.

I love it! (But this is coming from someone who has never done or understood an essence map!) It's one of the first essence maps I've actually been able to understand! Very good!

God Bless,
