Make Your Wrap Style Card Holder

This workshop is designed to be a creative escape—a chance to slow down, work with natural materials, and appreciate the art of making. Whether you’re looking to start a new hobby or refine your craft, this class offers both inspiration and practical skills.

What to Expect:

• A Minimalist Journey: Discover the beauty of simplicity through clean lines, understated form, and the natural texture of quality vegetable-tanned leather. This workshop celebrates the artistry in minimalism.
• Hands-On Learning: Explore the essentials of leathercraft: from cutting and shaping leather to hand-stitching using traditional saddle stitch techniques, all while working in a calm, creative atmosphere.
• Crafting Your Own Piece: Throughout the session, you will transform raw leather into a functional bi-fold wallet—designed to hold cards and cash elegantly. The process is guided, yet open to personal interpretation, so each piece carries its own unique mark.
• Artisanal Tools and Techniques: Learn to use time-honored tools and techniques in a modern context. We’ll focus on precision, attention to detail, and the tactile satisfaction of handcrafting your own accessory.
• All Materials and Tools Provided - Pick Your Own Leather! No need to bring anything—your hands will be your tools, and we’ll supply all necessary materials. Just come prepared to get creative and embrace the art of making.
