What To Expect
Make a leather belt to fit you, with guidance through each stage.
You’ll measure and prepare your belt, shape the tip, punch the holes, finish the edges and fit your chosen buckle and hardware. You’ll also make and hand-stitch the belt keeper.
Using traditional leatherworking hand tools, you’ll learn practical techniques you can build on, with plenty of individual help along the way. No previous experience is needed.
A Workshop for a Special Occasion
Share a few hours learning something new and making belts you can use for years to come.
A private belt workshop is a thoughtful way to celebrate a birthday or anniversary, or simply spend time together.
