Workshop - Leather Belt or Dog Collar and Lead - Half Day

£85.00

Leather Belt or Dog Collar & Lead Workshop – Half Day

Discover traditional leatherworking techniques and make something beautifully practical to take home.

Spend a relaxed morning in the Williams Handmade workshop learning how to transform a piece of leather into either your own handmade leather belt or a leather dog collar and lead.

Suitable for complete beginners as well as those who have tried leathercraft before, this half-day workshop introduces you to a range of traditional skills, with Sarah guiding you through each stage.

You'll choose from our selection of leathers and buckles, allowing you to create a finished piece that's personal to you — or your four-legged friend!

What you'll learn

  • Cutting leather straps

  • Edge bevelling and creasing

  • Traditional hand saddle stitching

  • Riveting

  • Edge finishing and burnishing

  • Fitting buckles and hardware

Each person will make either one leather belt or one dog collar and lead set.

Your workshop

The workshop runs from approximately 10:00am–1:30pm and costs £85 per person.

All materials are included, along with cake, tea and coffee.

You can pay in full when booking or pay a £40 deposit, with the remaining £45 payable on the day.

The dog collar and lead designs available are those shown in the workshop photographs. Unfortunately, there isn't enough time within the half-day session to make more complicated padded, rolled or greyhound-style collars.

Please note: Workshop deposits and payments are non-refundable and cannot be transferred to another date within one month of the booked workshop.
