The Bag making course spans a period of six engaging weeks, with 2 and half hour sessions scheduled for Thursday evenings, kicking off at 6 pm and wrapping up at 8:30 pm. This course is all about delving deep into understanding the entire intricate process of design, taking you step by step through to the creation of that finished item. Along the way, you will develop essential skills to advance your craft should you choose to pursue it further. And if you don't, no worries—you're still crafting a stunning, unique item that can serve as a thoughtful gift or a cherished piece to carry with you for many years to come.
Learn the individual elements of design, construction, and finish without relying on a uniform, cookie-cutter clicker press that churns out identical items. Instead, you will immerse yourself in the unique process of crafting each piece by hand, exploring various techniques and styles. You will discover how to create a custom template through the design process, a skill that you can take forward and adapt to your future projects should you wish to elevate your craftsmanship further.
The class is kept intentionally intimate, as I limit participation to a maximum of just four students. This arrangement allows me the opportunity to fully engage with each member of the pack, ensuring everyone receives personalised attention and support. Plus, given that my tools are razor sharp, it’s crucial to maintain this close-knit environment for everyone's safety. The age range for participants is sixteen and up, inviting a diverse mix of enthusiastic learners.
