Simple Leather Card Holder Workshop

Recent reviews of Simple Leather Card Holder Workshop

• 5/5 from Abby Giri, attended Apr 2026: Was a good class took only 2 hours not the 3 it says on the class even with my mum picking a more complex design. Was very cute and useable wallet that looked great!
• 5/5 from Melissa Lee, attended Feb 2026: Justine was very kind and patient, and clearly very talented with making leather goods. Was a private class with a cosy environment. Would recommend if looking for a bit of a different small class that's still affordable!
• 5/5 from Jocelyn Heywood, attended Dec 2025: Justine was amazing! She was kind and answered our questions and clarifications with patience. There was a huge range of leathers, colours and designs to choose from which made the process feel very personalised. Would highly recommend!
• 2/5 from Sunny Jung, attended Dec 2024: It was the first time I felt disappointed from a workshop. Despite the inconvenient location, I planned this workshop for my cousin coming from overseas to remove the language barrier as the instructor could speak Korean. Simply put: - came off impatient and a bit rude (told me not to worry about time and then passive aggressively told me I took too long and she started quickly making it herself (also responded similarly when my cousin asked a question like we should know how to do things but this is a workshop and clearly she’s not explaining nor guiding us well if we’re all confused? How would it be our fault for not knowing?) - minimal explanation and guidance, we had to ask what to do for details and the response was coldly the same “yeah just do that”. Not much guidance and honestly seemed like she didn’t care too much. Ended up making mistakes: I made a lopsided stained wallet (again when I commented the paint wasnt dry she said it’d be fine…) and my cousin was helping my struggling mum since the instructor wasn’t doing her job…) - unclear communication and expectations. If she had somewhere to go after, she could’ve guided us better so we weren’t so lost or not contradicted herself telling us not to worry with time and then halfway rushing us and acting passive aggressive. If it was another instructor, I know they would’ve cared enough to make it right with a solution if a customer was upset or a product came out unsatisfactory. She also forgot to tell us (or bother checking really) that the inside border had to be painted/sealed and we talked amongst ourselves and figured it out. No apology, no regard. I could tell she just wanted us out of there. I’m quite shocked to have had such a negative experience, especially after reading all the positive old reviews. I know people have bad days, but this just seemed unprofessional and I’m disappointed that my cousin and mum had a negative experience for their first ever workshop.
• 5/5 from Su Jo, attended Aug 2023: I had a great time with Justine. Tools, templates, and materials are all provided in class, able to pick whatever you want. Making process is straightforward and easy to follow as a beginner. I highly recommend this class if you want a peaceful morning :) I hope I can attend more classes with her in the future.
• 5/5 from Ping Chen, attended Apr 2023: It is a fun experience. All materials are provided. Justine is very knowledgeable and passionate about leather making. Strongly recommended.
• 5/5 from Yi Zheng, attended Feb 2023: Great experience! It was a lot of fun and Justine was very helpful throughout the entire session.
• 5/5 from Jeannie, attended Jan 2023: Justine was friendly, knowledgeable and patient. Her instruction was clear and help us along the way. Class was personalised for us. All materials and accessories were provided. It was easy to follow her instructions and she made sure we handled the tools safely. We were comfortable in the class and chatted along as we did our pieces.
• 5/5 from Justina Tan, attended Jan 2023: Justine was a really good teacher and helped us create wonderful pieces that we love! We've gotten many compliments about it since this morning (many can't believe they are handmade). A variety of templates (you'll be spoiled for choice), materials, hardware and tools were provided and her small little studio was really homey as well. Thank you for giving my parents an awesome birthday experience (and myself too for that keychain making experience!)
• 5/5 from Catherine Zoioglou, attended Sep 2022: Amazing! Such a fun learning experience and had a great time making myself a flip wallet. Thanks Justine! :)
• 5/5 from Lisa, attended Mar 2022: I had a great time with Justine on Sunday. Not only was she extremely patient with us but she also made the experience very personable. Each participant was able to choose their own designs from a wide selection and work at their own pace. Initially I had intended to make the card wallet as a gift but ended up adoring my own so much that I kept it. The class overall was very pleasant and I would love to come back in the future to work on another project with her.
• 5/5 from Michelle Nguyen, attended Mar 2022: Matching to the atmosphere of the studio and location, both the class and teacher was nice and quaint. Despite the heavy rain we experienced on the day, it proved to be a little addition to the mood as it helped us immerse ourselves into the class. Justine was very patient with us and went through each step thoroughly. She ensured that each of us was on task and did not rush the group, allowing for everyone to work at their own pace. In terms of material provided, we were given an array of different types of leather to choose from. This included a variety on texture, thickness and colour. There was also a wide selection patterns and designs available. Additionally, we were also able to add our own monogrammed chosen word/name/initials. Thus making the experience very personalised. In summary, the class was extremely flexible in that it allowed for each person's personality to show through their project. It was definitely a fun class and experience that we would recommend to others. Thanks a bunch again Justine!

• 5/5 from Jas Lam, attended Mar 2020: A really fun class. Justine was thorough in teaching the steps. I was very lucky to have a one-on-one class with her. Very good facilities, materials and workshop. The leather quality is amazing. I would be very careful in doing each step though because any mistakes/imperfections will carry over!
• 5/5 from Meredith Draper, attended Mar 2020: Class was such a good size (3 of us). Didn't feel any pressure to do anything quickly or like I couldn't keep up. Justine was so lovley and took everything step by step. I got a lift there and there was a public bus 4 mins walks away which took me to the nearest station so good location relative to public transport. Justine gave you so much choice in regards to style and leather options. She was able to support you to make the card holder perfect for, your needs and style. Thank you.

• 5/5 from Janani Selvakumar, attended Oct 2019: Justine and Chloe were great! Setup was very quick. They briefed the group and helped us all along the way.
