Handmade Leather Journal Workshop | Craft Your Own Personalized Journal

In this guided session, you’ll create a complete leather wrap-style journal. Your finished piece will include a journal insert, making it ready to write in from the moment you leave the studio. Designed to be refillable and to age beautifully over time, this is a piece meant to travel with you.

During the workshop, you’ll:

• Cut, bevel and burnish
• Punch holes and set hardware
• Assemble the wrap closure
• Insert and secure your journal
• Add charms and accessories (feel free to bring your own if you wish!)
• Customize it with hot iron branding or embossing

All materials, tools, leather, hardware, and the journal insert are included. No prior experience is necessary — you’ll be guided step-by-step through the entire process.

Perfect for writers, travelers, goal-setters, or anyone wanting to slow down and create something meaningful by hand, this workshop blends craftsmanship with intention.
