With a focus on the material, tools and process, you’ll learn basic leather crafting techniques and put them into practice creating your very own leather belt. Try your hands at cutting leather, bevelling and burnishing and go home with a finished piece that you will be proud of for years to come!
Along the way you will also gain some insight into working with leather, it’s structure and layers, find out the difference between full-grain and genuine leather, and how to properly care for your leather items.
A fun and practical workshop suitable for beginners, or anyone in need of a fancy new belt!

Haylee has been assembling beautiful things with her hands since not long after she could walk and has been working with leather specifically for many years. Starting out with leather aprons for a Melbourne cafe, menu holders and various other commissioned projects, she soon became known for her attention to detail and fine craftsmanship.
Haylee’s label Evie Black creates bespoke Leather handbags and is in the process of expanding into homewares and accessories. Expect to see plant hangers, laptop cases and some awesome collaborations with other local makers.

Work-Shop is a creative concept that will broaden your horizons and help you unleash your inner awesome. We provide affordable short courses in life skills and alternative art. We’ve teamed up with Australia’s brightest creative minds to share their knowledge and help teach you a new skill. From 3D printing and stencil art through to music and gardening – life skills and personal development through to cooking doughnuts and mushroom foraging, we offer a broad range of fun and creative short courses to suit our time poor lives. We will inspire you to pick up that pen, paintbrush, hammer or sewing machine and flick the switch that will kickstart a whole new way of life.
Community values lie at the heart of our project. We collaborate with local artists and industry experts to teach classes and utilise local suppliers for any materials needed. We also provide a creative environment for emerging artists to produce and sell work, and meet like minded individuals. Work-Shop will be a space for everyone, with a rotating schedule of art shows, information nights on local issues and a whole range of events and community initiatives.

Loved the experience. Haylee, the tutor was great! Explained each step thoroughly and I learned a lot. The class was full with interested and enthusiastic people. The venue was easy to find and was more that suitable for the class. Loved it!

The class was great and Haylee was an amazing teacher.
Simple to understand instructions and a great range of tools and materials.
It was so nice to leave the class with a belt that I had made and there was even enough time to make a keyring.
