If you've been itching for a new hobby, learn leather working in this craft class in Chicago. In this leatherworking class, you will receive an introduction to leather work and how to make your own handmade leather goods. In this class, you will choose from three different projects to kickstart your leather working journey, including a cuff, clutch, or belt. You will use leather and hardware to match your vision to create your custom piece. You'll learn how to set a snap, attach a rivet, and more! If you're feeling ambitious, you can modify and create your own designs as well. This is a fun, easy class and gives you a chance to make a few things out of leather. Your class is led by a knowledgeable instructor so you're in safe hands and can ask as many questions as you please. By the end of class, you'll have your own custom handmade leather piece that you can give as gifts or just wear and enjoy yourself. If you're looking for fun creative classes in Chicago or gift experiences for a friend or loved one, this is the perfect activity that will let you experiment with a new hobby and leave with something you're proud of!
I started making shoes in 1974. Self taught, I created a custom shoemaking business and have made over 10, 000 pairs of shoes since then. In 2011, I opened the Chicago School of Shoemaking & Leather Arts so I could share the satisfaction and delight of making shoes and leather goods.
