The workshop in detail
THIS GROUP WORKSHOP IS HOSTED EITHER AT YOUR PLACE OR ON YOUR PREMISES : The artisan will come to you and organize the workshop at the location of your choice, within the limits of their perimeter, and if your venue meets the requirements set out in the "Practical information" section. Take part in this group workshop with your colleagues, friends or family and enjoy a unique moment of conviviality 😃
Embark on a journey into the world of leather during a friendly workshop with Kristina, a talented leatherworker who will guide you through the creation of your very own leather laptop sleeve.
Once you've settled in, Kristina will introduce herself and explain the main stages of the workshop.
You'll then delve into the history of leatherwork, its techniques and tools, thanks to Kristina's theoretical explanations.
Following this, each participant will choose the leather and threads for their future sleeve.
Now, it's your turn to take the lead! Each participant will cut their leather piece according to the desired size, suitable for either a 13" or 15" laptop.
You'll then proceed to stitching and lacing, all under Kristina's watchful eye.
To make your laptop sleeve even more unique, you'll have the opportunity to personalize it by adding your company logo, a word, initials, etc.
After this enriching and convivial moment, you'll leave with a sense of fulfillment from this collective experience, each with their very own handmade leather laptop sleeve, proudly crafted by your own hands!
This workshop is ideal for colleagues or friends to learn together while creating a stylish and practical item, alongside a passionate artisan.

Meet Kristina
Leatherworker
Originally from Lebanon, Kristina is an accomplished leatherworker based in the beautiful capital of Brussels!
After studying at a business school, she became fascinated by leather through her encounters with artisans in the streets of Beirut. A self-taught designer, she was inspired to start her own belt brand at the age of 23 when her grandmother gave her a set of vintage belts. This led to her joining the Johnny Farah leather goods company as a designer and production manager between Beirut and New York. In 2015, she decided to move to Belgium for love and launched her brand KINAMANIA.
KINAMANIA offers creative workshops to make iconic bags through which Kristina mixes her passion for leather with modern technologies: she reinterprets traditional leather lacing techniques that she combines with 3D printing to create leather pieces that are both elegant and bold.
Kristina welcomes you to her boutique-workshop in the Galeries Royales Saint Hubert, right in the city centre, for a discovery of leather and the emotion provoked by the creation of a beautiful object!
