Step into the Rag of Colts studio for an immersive, hands-on day of leathercraft. This is an intimate space — quiet, characterful, and designed for deep creative focus. Because of its scale, workshops are limited to just one or two people at a time, allowing for a rich, personalised experience shaped entirely around you.

1:1 Full Day Tuition – £425
  A full day of private tuition, completely tailored to your pace, your project, and your interests. Perfect if you're seeking focused guidance, want to develop new techniques, or simply immerse yourself in a slower way of making.

2:1 Full Day Tuition – £265 per person
  Learn alongside a friend (or be paired with another maker) in a relaxed, collaborative setting. Ideal for couples, creatives, or curious beginners.

Whether you’re completely new to leatherwork or already familiar with the tools, each day is bespoke — guided by your skill level, curiosity, and creative goals.

What’s Included:

* All tools and materials
* A choice of beautiful, reclaimed leathers
* Personalised, hands-on guidance throughout the day
* Refreshments throughout the day; light lunch.
* You’ll leave with a hand-stitched leather wallet and key ring, made entirely by you

The workshop focuses on traditional leathercraft techniques including:

* Cutting
* Skiving
* Hand stitching
* Bevelling
* Burnishing

This is a practical, skill-building day. While you’ll create beautiful, functional items to take home, it’s important to be realistic about what can be achieved in one day — especially if you're a beginner. The focus is on learning and enjoying the process of slow making, with attention to detail and craft.

Workshops typically take place on Thursdays, but I’ll always do my best to accommodate a weekend if that’s the only time that works for you. Longer workshops over a number of days are also available,  get in touch to discuss availability.
