About this course

A quirky and contemporary take on the traditional Christmas wreath, using leather to create a beautiful, unusual decoration that looks as lovely as it smells.

Course Description

Working with a selection of natural and festive-coloured leathers, participants will create their own unique wreath, beginning with a strong floristry wire circle to form the framework. Leather pieces will then be individually punched, folded and attached to the wire, gradually building up layers of beautiful leather 'leaves' to create texture, movement and a wonderfully tactile finish.

Each wreath will be entirely individual, with plenty of opportunity to play with colour, shape and arrangement. A lovely alternative to traditional Christmas foliage.

These wreaths can be enjoyed year after year, bringing a little handmade character and leathercraft to the festive season.
