This is practical small group day course during which you will create a customised, handmade leather gift item to present to your loved one as a unique Christmas present.
You will receive instruction on how to mark, cut and edge finish veg tanned leather and use simple fastening hardware.
You will create and customise your leather item, choosing between a selection of different types of goods such as small clutches, purses, card holders and more.
You will be able to deboss the initials of the lucky recipient, making your handmade leather Christmas present very special!
