Get Crafty at Moxie & Oliver’s March Leathercraft Workshops

Looking for a hobby? Lacking a burst of creativity in your life? Leathercrafting could be just the thing you’re looking for! Join me in my studio for personalized workshops and classes that teach the ins and outs of the art form I’m most passionate about. I will be offering a few different leathercrafting courses in March, and can also teach private lessons for those looking for specific or more specialized instruction. These classes are a wonderful opportunity to learn a new skill, experience a real studio at work, and to make new friends!

Email me at Caitlin@moxieandoliver.com to sign up for a class or to set up a private session. My March workshops are as follows:

March 11: Small project workshop / 5pm-9pm / $175

Do you have a leather item in mind you’d like to make, but don’t quite know where to get started? This is the perfect workshop for you! In this class, participants will have the chance to make their own item by hand and bring home the finished piece. Choose to craft a leather watch, cuff, smartphone case, flask, belt, or wallet. All tools and materials are included in the workshop price. You’ll be amazed at what you can make in just four hours!

March 14-15: Handbag workshop / 9am- 4pm each day / $750

The most intensive of my March classes, this two full-day workshop will allow you to dive into the art of leathercrafting and leave with valuable skills to apply to your own work. Participants will design and create their own vegetable-tanned leather handbag that they get to bring home! I encourage students to bring their own ideas and sketches to jumpstart the process and end up with a product you love. I will teach the pattern-making process and fundamental skills necessary to make this happen, including the basics of leathercraft design.

March 21: Small project workshop / 1pm-5pm /  $175

[See March 11^th workshop description] If you already took the March 11^th workshop and didn’t get a chance to make all the things you wanted to, join me again for round two!

March 28: Intro to Leathercraft / 9am- 5pm / $350

Immerse yourself in the art of leathercraft at this full-day workshop. This in-depth course will teach participants about the tools and materials used, making patterns, hand sewing, pyrography (branding the leather), carving, dyeing, finishing, and adding basic hardware to your piece. You’ll get to choose your own project, with options including several different small bag/clutches from Moxie & Oliver original patterns. Take your masterpiece home to show off!
