Learn to craft your own luxury handbag in our 1-Day Bag Making Taster Workshop, situated in the heart of London.

Specifically tailored for complete beginners, this workshop is designed to give you a taste of leather bagmaking in a 5 hour hands-on workshop.

Our commitment to excellence goes beyond teaching; we take pride in maintaining small class sizes, ensuring each participant receives personalised attention and dedicated one-on-one time with our expert instructor.

Workshop Structure

This workshop runs on Fridays (not every Friday, check available dates above) from 10am to 4pm, with a 1-hour lunch break.

10am - Lunch

In the first part of this workshop, you will choose from our selection of beautiful leathers. You'll then cut your lining in preparation for assembling your bag.

After Lunch - 4pm

The second part of the course will be all about assembling the bag. In this workshop we will be constructing the bags using a flatbed sewing machine. You will also add any hardware and finishing touches to your bag.

What bag will I make?

During this workshop you'll have time to make a zip-up shoulder bag. It's the perfect day-to-night bag and is fully lined 😉

You'll be able to select your leather from a whole range of options and can even BYO lining so you can totally personalise your bag!

LINING: We have plain lining available to use in the workshop or you are welcome to BYO lining to jazz up the inside of your bag. We recommend a heavy(ish) cotton approx 50 x 50cm.
