We’re so very lucky to be able to welcome Catherine Edwards to Kith for this wonderful festive workshop, where she will teach you how to create a beautiful natural leather and reclaimed wood candle holder and willow hoop wreath decorated with winter foliage, perfect for your table or as a gift.
Come and learn how to create patterns, hand cut and stitch the leather and decorate it, or add your own unique message stamped into the leather. This is a great way to introduce yourself to working with leather.
The candle holder will be set in a willow hoop with fragrant winter foliage, leather decorations and cinnamon bundles.
What a beautiful, unique and reusable gift to take away!
Catherine trained as a boot and shoemaker, working for many years before a residency at the royal armouries in Leeds, which led to the production of her first collection of unique leather goods.
The price of the workshop is £55 per preson, and includes all materials and refreshments.
