Make a beautiful, bespoke leather collar and lead for your four-legged friend in this hands-on leather workshop with Catherine.

Using high-quality British leather in a range of colours, you’ll create a unique collar and matching lead, personalised with your dog’s name or initials. You can choose from solid brass or chrome fittings to give your finished pieces the perfect finishing touch.

Working in a small, friendly group, you’ll be guided by Catherine through each stage of the process, learning traditional leatherworking techniques and how to use the tools needed to create your own high-quality, practical accessories.

You’ll learn how to:

-Cut and prepare leather using traditional tools

-Measure and assemble a leather collar and lead

-Attach fittings and hardware securely

-Personalise your collar with your dog’s name or initials

-Finish your leatherwork for a professional result

Suitable for beginners, this workshop is a lovely introduction to leatherworking. You’ll leave with a beautiful, handmade collar and lead, made with care especially for your best friend!

What to expect

Time at ArtisOn is designed to take you away from it all and provide the environment, the time and the guidance you need to create. You can expect a warm welcome, skilled and friendly tutors plus the chance to meet like-minded people keen to share ideas and experiences.

There will usually be two workshops going on and we encourage everyone to mingle and be nosey about what the other workshop is up to!

Arrive in time to meet other participants over a cup of tea or coffee and biscuits before beginning your session at the appointed time. There will be a mid-session break for refreshments and a chance to talk over progress with others. All refreshments are included.

Finish time is given as a target – there are occasions when the session may overrun so do let us know if you need to be away promptly.

What you’ll need to bring with you

Your Dog's neck measurements, would be handy.
