Leather Stamping and Stitching Workshop for Beginners
Using vegetable tanned leather, you'll learn to use our different stamping tools, designing, casing, stamping, pressure, alignment, striking with a mallet, using a swivel knife, tanning and finishing your purse. Learn the basics of Leathercraft by making a sweet little decorated leather purse. It's not difficult or strenuous and we've got all the tools and leather you'll need. If you're like me, you need lots of individual pouches in your pocketbook in order to find anything ! In this workshop, you'll design and embellish a simple trifold leather purse to hold those things that creep to the bottom of the bag (keys, lip balm, nail clippers, hair clips, band-aids etc.). You'll love this experience and you'll be so proud of your creation.
