Recent reviews of Leather Crafting Workshop: Create a Small Pouch

  • 5/5 from Christina Tam, attended Oct 2026: We had a really enjoyable session with the very welcoming host!
  • 5/5 from Jasmine Sargant, attended Aug 2026: What an amazing lesson with such a kind and helpful host. I was given lots of options and advice throughout, I'm very pleased with what I made. I learned so much! 100% recommend if you are looking for a creative and relaxing afternoon
  • 5/5 from Andrew Youngs, attended Jul 2026: Naoum delivered a fantastic workshop. The tools and materials are clearly of high quality and he has a passion for the craft which really comes through. He was very hospitable, providing lovely snacks and drinks. Highly recommended.
  • 5/5 from Harith Aldeghather, attended Jun 2026: This was a fantastic class! Naoum was a very clear, patient and thoughtful teacher, and is wonderfully generous as a host, and with his time. With his guidance and materials, I was able to make a small purse/wallet. Naoum layed out all the steps clearly and gave me scrap materials to practice each of them on. The atmosphere was very comfortable and friendly: my classmates were lovely too. I had a lovely day and I think I will return to leather crafting again. It was lovely to learn about Naoum's own journey towards the craft, which he is very knowledgeable about. Thank you Naoum!
  • 5/5 from Liwen Knight-Zhang, attended Apr 2026: I really enjoyed the class with Naoum. He was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful, and it felt more like hanging out with a friend than sitting in a workshop. It was my first time working with leather, and being able to try the craft hands-on under a teacher's supervision was both encouraging and incredibly helpful. Highly recommend the class and Naoum.
  • 5/5 from Odile Louis-Sidney, attended Apr 2026: A wonderful leather workshop! Naoum is a great teacher, explains clearly every step and gives encouragement, all in a welcoming space. I couldn’t be happier with my glasses case!
  • 5/5 from Cathal Wharton, attended Mar 2026: Spectacular hospitality, accessible activity, brilliant outcomes - I couldn’t recommend this class enough.
  • 5/5 from Alexander Joseph, attended Jan 2026: Had a really good time, had a really good teacher who explained about the different types of leather. Got to choose what colours I'd like. Explained the steps that would be taken to make the pouch that i chose, got help when i got stuck and was shown how to fix it. I really enjoyed it all but loved doing the stitching as it was something I've never done before.
  • 5/5 from Marie Ledrieu, attended Jun 2025: Great workshop with a friendly and relaxed atmosphere; Naoum is a patient teacher who clearly enjoys sharing his knowledge, and the little pouch is lovely
  • 5/5 from Erica Theis, attended May 2025: Naoum is not just a guy who's good with leather— he's an outstanding teacher. His patience, warmth and enthusiasm really made this class worthwhile. I had never done leather work before and we covered a lot in just a few hours, but I never felt rushed or lost. The class was small enough that everyone could work at their own pace and get help when needed. I really enjoyed my time and I left with enough of a foundation that I could continue on my own. That said, I would come back for another class to make something more complex!

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!
