Discover the art of leather crafting in our workshops, where you can create unique, handcrafted cardholders and personalise them to your liking. No prior experience is required, as you’ll receive full guidance from the instructor every step of the way.

This session lasts between three and four hours. This is a great introductory session to leather crafting and you have 2 designs to choose from. Participants are welcome to bring their own snacks and drinks to enjoy during the workshop.

Throughout the workshop, you will learn essential leather-working techniques, including punching, cutting, edging, burnishing, stitching, finishing, and embossing. These skills will empower you to create beautiful, durable items with confidence and precision.

The workshops are conveniently located within a 10-minute walk from Eltham train station and a 15-minute walk from Mottingham train station.

We take pride in using only the finest quality full-grain, vegetable-tanned leather sourced ethically and sustainably. Our materials include cow leather from Derbyshire, UK, which is environmentally friendly and ages beautifully; goat leather imported from France, renowned for its durability and elegance; and kangaroo leather from a Derbyshire tannery, which is exceptionally lightweight yet strong.

I really enjoyed the class with Naoum. He was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful, and it felt more like hanging out with a friend than sitting in a workshop. It was my first time working with leather, and being able to try the craft hands-on under a teacher's supervision was both encouraging and incredibly helpful. Highly recommend the class and Naoum.

Had a really good time, had a really good teacher who explained about the different types of leather. Got to choose what colours I'd like. Explained the steps that would be taken to make the pouch that i chose, got help when i got stuck and was shown how to fix it. I really enjoyed it all but loved doing the stitching as it was something I've never done before.

Naoum is not just a guy who's good with leather— he's an outstanding teacher. His patience, warmth and enthusiasm really made this class worthwhile. I had never done leather work before and we covered a lot in just a few hours, but I never felt rushed or lost. The class was small enough that everyone could work at their own pace and get help when needed. I really enjoyed my time and I left with enough of a foundation that I could continue on my own. That said, I would come back for another class to make something more complex!
