Recent reviews of Leather Keychain Crafting Workshop

• 5/5 from Crystal Xiang, attended Aug 2025: Really fun and informative class! I wasn't expecting the mini lesson on different leather types and tanning processes, and how to differentiate leather quality. Definitely felt like I learned a lot. Tom is a good instructor, and provides high quality materials, making for a beautiful final product. Also appreciate the variety of different leather and hardware colors we got to choose from!
• 5/5 from Nishna Kommoju, attended Aug 2025: I signed up for the keychain making workshop with zero experience in leather working and a goal to try to make something halfway decent. Tom started the class off by introducing himself and sharing why he got into leather working and how excited he was to share his passion with us. His presentation about different types of leather was engaging and allowed room for conversation and questions. When he passed out materials, he made sure that everyone had a clear understanding of which materials would be used at each step while letting us play around with the tools, balancing the teaching aspects while encouraging the natural curiosity of the group. As we started cutting the leather and working on our keychains, Tom went around and chatted with everyone to gauge skill level and ensure those who needed help with some of the craftier aspects got the attention they needed. I had a good time talking with the other group members as we worked and found that some of the group had experience in similar workshops and crafts; it was really fun to see all of us come together even with such differences in our skill levels. At the end, we all took photos of our keychains together and I was surprised at how nicely mine turned out. The keychain itself feels durable and is made out of premium leather from a small tannery; it looked so nice that I put it on my purse! Overall, I enjoyed being able to create something that I can take around with me everyday and actually use and make some new friends during the class. The keychain workshop is definitely worth the price and would be great for any kind of team building or bonding activity like a bridal shower or birthday party. Tom's dedication to making sure everyone enjoys themselves while creating a beautiful final product was really touching; I'm looking forward to the next workshop I book with him!
• 5/5 from Alyssa Mendoza, attended Aug 2025: This leather workshop was an immersive experience into the world of leather making. Tom not only taught us how to create our item, he also gave us a mini history lesson on leather making. It was fascinating to learn that there are different leathers, all of which he had examples of that we can touch and feel for ourselves. The hands on experience was so much fun, and Tom was very clear in his directions. He made sure to go around and make minor corrections. The end product was beautiful and my friends are already looking forward to the next workshop.
• 5/5 from Bradley Wang, attended Aug 2025: Our teacher Tom was incredibly passionate -- I greatly enjoyed learning about the choices made in designing and assembling leatherworking products for both those made ourselves and what might be found on a shelf. If you've never worked with a medium like leather, I'd highly recommend trying it out c:
• 5/5 from Alex Wu, attended Aug 2025: I learned a lot from the class and had a lot of fun making the keychain. We first went through a short lesson about leather and the different types that we might see. Afterwards we started working on our keychain. Tom is a great instructor and led us step by step to make sure our keychains were perfect. We had customizable options for our keychain and even were able to get an engraving on it. Overall, I really enjoyed the class and would highly recommend it!
• 5/5 from Lindsey Tam, attended Aug 2025: Such an informative and fun class! In this class, we learned so much about leather and how to work with it! Tom is super knowledgeable about the subject and made the process so easy, even though we were beginners. We got to learn about different leather types, and I thought the options were super high quality! I also love how we had the option to customize our keychains with different colors and metal types. Overall, I'd highly recommend this class!
• 5/5 from Alison H, attended Aug 2025: Never took a leather keychain craft class before, but I went into this class with an open mind. The instructor, Tom, was incredibly helpful, educational, and patient. I learned a lot about leather and from Tom, I've learned to more critically examine my own wardrobe of leather shoes and handbags to determine good quality. (At home, I've discovered some that are... not exactly up to par, but that's another tale.) Tom let other students go at their own pace, because making the keychain took time, effort, and lots of careful hand movement. The whole process would have been confusing on my own, but Tom made it straightforward and easy. For me, making the keychain was like therapy. In fact, cheaper than therapy. The class is very tactile. I love looking at the samples of leather and seeing all the color options. It's a neat peek behind the leathermaking process. The other students were great. Everyone was talkative and invested in the process. It was quite social and fun, and we all had different ideas on how to use the keychain that we made. There's, of course, the more traditional route of using as an actual keychain, but I've taken it as a way to keep my game playmats hooked to my backpack. So far it's been holding strong, and I appreciate this application. The end product was smooth, nice, and pretty, but also strong and of high quality. Those playmats probably weight around 3 pounds in total, so it's very impressive. I absolutely recommend this class to friends and family and coworkers. This is an unusual class that has been enjoyable, memorable experience with a lovely leather keychain to bring home.
