Leather Belt Bag Workshop
$75.00
Create your own minimalist leather belt bag that can be worn several different ways by adjusting or removing the strap. In this workshop, Klum House Founder Ellie Lum guides us through the process of turning a pre-cut piece of vegetable-tanned leather into a stylish belt bag as we learn how to set rivets, use a drive punch, and work with leather. The assembly uses different types of rivets only—there’s absolutely no sewing involved.
