Ecoprint on Leather Maker's Workshop in 2026!
Join me for a unique experience at the Tryon Arts and Crafts school Nov 10-14 and create the perfect gifts for the for the Holidays!
Ecoprint on Leather Maker's class is a relaxed 5 day workshop held at the Tryon Arts and Crafts School, This will be a small, intimate class with plenty of one-on-one instruction.This workshop is suitable for all levels of experience.
What will you be doing? Just in time for the Holidays! You’ll learn to ecoprint on lambskin, sheep and top grain leather. Ecoprinting is a form of botanical printing where you'll learn to use the tannin derived from Mother Nature's plants to print their images on leather. Use your newly imprinted pieces to start exploring basic construction techniques to turn your leather designs into beautiful handbags, clothing, jewelry, and even shoes. I'll share tips to types of leather, care, maintenance, sealants, softening and care. We'll explore hand and machine sewing on leather. We'll also use a basic die cutting machine to make quick templates for earrings and bracelets in leather. Learn to install zippers, linings, rivets and box corners-all in leather!
What will you need to bring? I will supply all the leather and construction hardware. You bring your leaves
!You can begin to gather and preserve leaves for this November class at any time! Check out my website blog for hints on storing until needed!
