Handmade Leather Tote Bag Workshop with Ella Jackson

Discover the art of leather craftsmanship and design your own custom leather tote bag with me, Ella Jackson. In this hands-on, creative 4-hour workshop, you’ll explore the process of leatherworking and create a functional yet stylish tote that’s entirely unique to you.

Whether you’re a beginner or have some experience, I’ll guide you step-by-step through cutting, assembling, and stitching your tote bag using high-quality leather and professional tools. Together, we’ll explore the creative possibilities, and you’ll leave with a beautiful, handcrafted bag that’s perfect for everyday use or a special gift.

This workshop is all about having fun while learning a new skill in a relaxed, supportive environment. All materials are provided, and no prior experience is required—just bring your creativity and an openness to learning!

Workshops are available daily at 9.00 am and 2:00 pm and can be booked via the website. Prices are for groups of 2 - 4 participants. The exact address will be provided upon booking

This is more than just a workshop—it’s an opportunity to immerse yourself in a creative process and leave with a personalised tote bag you’ll love to carry!
