Leatherwork - Half-Day Belt Making - Experience in our Blended Monkey Studios - July 2026
It's always a pleasure to have the fabulously talented Tony & Soraya with us teaching leatherwork experiences. Yesterday, it was belt making!
Tony introduced the ladies to the tools that would be used and the leather that could be chosen. Once the leather had been picked, Tony taught the ladies how to cut the leather and then all the tips and techniques required to create their wonderful belts - including stitching around the edges in their chosen colour of thread.
As is customary here at Blended Monkey, we kept the group fuelled with bakes and refreshments.
The ladies made beautiful leather belts that will last a lifetime!
Tony & Soraya are with us for more wonderful leatherwork experiences:
