What To Expect
This workshop is designed to introduce you to the core concepts of leather craft – measuring, cutting, gluing, punching, saddle stitching, and edge finishing. All of which can be applied to future leather craft projects. The earliest confirmed leatherworking tools date back to the Stone Age in 5,000 BC. During this time, leather was used for shelters, clothing, and shoes. Nowadays leather is still as versatile and useful as it was back then.
The skills you learn in this class will lead you to conceiving and creating any leathercraft projects you want. You’ll also have the option of custom foil embossing your wallet to make it truly an expression of yourself and your personality.
Our guides will teach you how to care for your leather goods.
End the night with a beautiful handmade wallet and vital skills to be a proper leather smith.
