    Leather Crafting Workshop with a Local Artisan review

    You can write a balanced and constructive review like this: The workshop environment was quite enjoyable. Sufficient materials were prepared for the participants, and refreshments were also considered. The information provided about leather and the presentation were clear and informative. However, the instructor's attention was sometimes insufficient. In addition, the mold used in the study was of a single type and was based on a standard model prepared in advance. Therefore, the opportunity to create more original designs was limited. Overall, it's an introductory experience to leather craftsmanship where you can have a nice time. However, those who expect a very professional, personalized, design-oriented, or comprehensive leatherworking training should adjust their expectations accordingly.

    Activité très interessante. La personne qui anime l’activité explique bien, est patiente, sympathique et souriante. J’ai passé un excellent moment. Je regrette presque de ne pas rester plus longtemps à Istanbul pour le refaire. Le petit porte-carte est très sympa.

    Leather Crafting Workshop with a Local Artisan review

    Honestly, this was the highlight of our trip. It was just the two of us, so we got tons of 1-on-1 time with the instructor, who really knows his stuff when it comes to leather. They actually met us on the European side and navigated us through the metro over to the Asian side, which took all the stress out of it (they even paid the fare). We were sipping on Turkish coffee and tea the whole time - just felt super welcomed. Definitely book this if you’re in Istanbul

    le professeur était super. nous étions que deux avec ma mère et nous avons donc eu un cours privé. déjà, je suis très contente que le cours n'a pas été annulé. malgré un anglais vraiment pas au niveau, il a été très patient et nous a montré une à une les étapes. nous sommes très fiers de notre travail et je remercie toute l'équipe du café pour leur accueil et leur aide à descendre et monter le fauteuil roulant.

    Leather Crafting Workshop review

    We had a amazing time at the leatherworkshop and we had much fun to make our own leather-moneybag. We can highly recommend it especially because of the instructor! We had a great time with him and he made a very good job in looking after us so we didn't make any mistake. Keep in mind, the workshop is at the asian part of istanbul but you can meet at the european part and a guide will lead you to the workshop. Transportation was included. Would book again.

    Leather Crafting Workshop review

    I had an amazing experience at the leather crafting workshop! The instructor was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about his craft. He walked me through every step of the process, making it easy for beginners me to follow along and actually create something I’m really happy with and will use for a long long time hopefully! The premium quality materials used also made a big difference in the final product. His enthusiasm for leatherwork is contagious, and by the end of the session I felt genuinely inspired to explore this as a new hobby. You should also check out his leather accessories brand, Wabes, he creates stunning bags and accessories! Highly recommend this workshop for anyone interested in learning a new practical skill or just have a lovely creative afternoon.

    It is a fun experience. Learnt a lot about the leather and how to distinguish good and bad leather. The instructor is helpful and the participants could get the hand-made leather wallet after the activity.
