The workshop in detail

  • 2h
  • 3 to 8 participants
  • 15 years min.
  • Create your own leather wallet during this creative workshop with Keren! 

    During these few hours, you will discover her fascinating craftmanship and her beautiful workplace located in the heart of Brussels. You will also have the chance to meet the other leather workers with whom Keren shares her beautiful workshop on a daily basis. 

    They will explain the basics of leather work and the essential tools with a lot of enthusiasm. You will be able to create a beautiful purse to accompany you in your daily life!

    They will let you choose the type and colour of leather you prefer. You will learn how to cut the leather from a pattern and then sew by hand using the "saddle stitch" technique. 

    After this initiation to leather in a joyful and good-humoured atmosphere, in a place that is completely out of time, with a team of leatherworkers who are as passionate as they are smiling, you will go home with your beautiful leather purse entirely made by yourself!

    This workshop is offered in French and English. Keren and her team will adapt the language of the workshop according to the participants present.

    Karen and her team's workshop is located just next to the Brunard bus stop (line 60), or a 5-minute walk from the Churchill metro stop (line 3).

    Beau moment et bel atelier en ce soir de neige et sous la bienveillance et le professionnalisme passionné de Keren. Deuxième atelier wecandoo, deuxième succès et l'envie d'aller plus loin découvrir d'autres talents, d'autres arts et laisser parler d'autres envies. Merci Keren!

    L'atelier a eu lieu le soir de la chute de neige. Ça l'a sans doute rendu plus spécial... En tout cas, Keren est à la fois très sympathique et excellente pédagogue. Nous étions 3 et je pense pouvoir dire que chacun d'entre nous a reçu suffisamment de temps et d'explications de sa part pour arriver à réaliser son "œuvre "! Merci 😊
