Discover the timeless art of leathercraft in this hands-on workshop designed for beginners. Guided step-by-step, you'll learn foundational leatherworking techniques while creating two handcrafted projects: a stylish wallet and a coin purse.

Using quality leather and traditional hand tools, no sewing machines required, you’ll learn how to measure and cut leather, punch holes for hardware and stitching, assemble your pieces, and add professional finishing touches. Along the way, you'll gain practical skills that can serve as a foundation for future leatherworking projects.

By the end of the workshop, you'll leave with two custom-made leather accessories and the confidence to continue exploring this rewarding craft. Whether you're interested in making handmade gifts, learning a new hobby, or simply enjoying a creative experience, this workshop offers the perfect introduction to the world of leathercraft.
