Custom Leather Pet Collar and Leash Workshop
Adult | Registration opens 2/18/2026 8:00 PM EST
Our pets are part of our family and as family they deserve the very best! Now you have the opportunity to make it for them! In this class students will learn basic tooling, finishing and sewing skills all while making your pet a wearable piece of art as well as a functioning, durable leash. This class is suitable for beginners as well as intermediate level students. All students will need to provide the weight and general size class of their dog prior to the class to ensure that the correct materials can be provided.
Students are suggested to either bring an apron or wear clothes that can potentially get stained as it is possible this may occur in the process of finishing projects.
