Let customers speak for us
Really high quality and beautifully made. Loved the colours and design and couldn’t wait to use it.
My friend and I really enjoyed our lovely afternoon choosing colours to make our beautiful unique handbags. I would definitely take part in another workshop in the future. ❤️
I had a thoroughly enjoyable day. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. The quality and range fabrics was great. I absolutely love my leather bag. 😍
Fabulous workshop led by Lee and Mustafa who were excellent tutors. It was very good value for money. I would definitely recommend these workshops. I love my bag I made.
Really happy with this workshop. Left with some amazing products and Lee was a great host and teacher. We will be booking onto future workshops.
I had the best morning with Lee at his workshop in Nottingham. I made a beautiful leather handbag that I absolutely love. I have booked another workshop with him for November and can’t wait. Thank you Lee. Xxx
Love the workshop with Lee and his partner ! The session was so insightful plus I managed to buy a sample bag for £35 which was a total steal for the leather quality.
(Did I say it is the leather supply than Cambridge satchel used?)
Again, thank so much and I hope to attend another workshop soon.
It is a lovely little bag which I am using on a daily basis. The only problem with it are the metal joints which keep popping out? I keep a little screwdriver with me to keep tightening them up which is a bit annoying when taking into consideration the price which I paid for the bag🙁
This has been the second workshop of Lee’s that have been too and I had a fantastic time and very pleased with my bag. I mixed up the colours of the leather and the result is I have my own unique bag.
I had a wonderful time, we had lots of fun!! 🤩
Excellent afternoon in relaxed atmosphere plus came home with a unique new bag 😊😊😊
If you are looking for an activity to do with friends that involves creating your very own leather handbag then this is the workshop for you. I treated one of my closest friends to this workshop for Christmas and we spent quality bonding time together. Lee and Mustafa made the workshop easy to follow and supported us to make our fabulous creations. Lovely memory making too. Thank you we shall be booking onto more.
