Join designer and leatherworker Katie Roe in a fun, creative workshop making a personalised bookmark and keyring

Join designer and leatherworker Katie Roe in a fun, creative workshop making a personalised bookmark and keyring that will make the perfect Christmas gifts for family or friends.

You will select from a choice of tan, nude or grey vegetable tanned leather for your keyring and bookmark, and can pick from a range of leather off cuts to add detailing.

Create a set that feels suited to any style, whether that be neutral and classic, or colourful and unique. You will learn how to burnish edges, add silver or brass rivets and operate the hot-foil machine to add initials and prints using a range of foil colours. The finished pieces will make thoughtful Christmas gifts, whether for yourself or someone special.

All materials & aprons are provided. The workshop is suitable for those who have never picked up a leather crafting tool to the more experienced makers who love to learn new skills.

Hot drinks and festive biscuits are included.
