5/5 from Caroline Hewitt, attended Feb 2026: Fabulous course - precise tutition but also flexible. Small class and added bonus it coffee, cakes, fruit and a glass of wine! Will be back.
5/5 from Ka-Lok Ho, attended Jan 2026: This class was gifted to myself and my partner and we both made a small pouch. Naoum was a knowledgeable and enthusiastic teacher, with lots of snacks and treats to boot which was a thoughtful and delightful surprise! He is a very hospitable host. We learnt a lot, had a joyfully chill and crafty afternoon, and walked away with something we can continue to use for a long time.
5/5 from Caitlin Graaf, attended Jun 2025: Naoum runs an amazing leather craft class! My handmade wallet came out looking super professional. The class was fun, informative, and easy to follow, offering something for newbies through to seasoned crafters to learn. Naoum has all the appropriate tools and techniques to create functional and beautiful leather pieces in a relaxed environment! Highly recommend.
5/5 from Elie Tanios, attended May 2025: This workshop was such a rewarding experience! Naoum created a calm and welcoming space where I felt at ease even though I had no prior experience working with leather. I loved being able to choose my leather and customise my card holder. It turned out beautiful and feels super durable. Highly recommend this class for anyone looking to try something creative and hands-on!
5/5 from Lauren Ramirez, attended Apr 2025: Had a great time at this class with Naoum! He was very patient and made sure steps were well understood before moving on. My cardholder turned out beautifully!
Hi there! I’m Naoum, and I’m so excited to share the joy of leather crafting with you.I first picked up leatherworking during the Covid lockdown, and it didn’t take long before I was hooked. Back home in Aleppo, I was always into crafts, especially through my scout group, and teaching others how to make things brought me so much happiness. When I moved to London, I wanted to recreate that magic, and leather crafting was the perfect fit for a small space and big creativity.In my workshops, you’ll make your own one-of-a-kind leather item. I’ll provide everything, tools, materials, and guidance, and you’ll get to add your own personal touches, like embossing. Whether it’s your first time crafting or you’re already handy, we’ll have a great time creating together.Let’s make something beautiful and have some fun while we’re at it!
