- C. de Carlos Arniches, 9, 54 - I will show the participants the use of the tools used for Leathercraft, many of which havent changed since medievil times.This experience is for those who wish to discover an authentic Spanish Leathercraft Workshop and learn how to make their own Leather items. Each participant will have the opportunity to use real Spanish Cowhide to create a Leather item with their own hands. In the workshop the participants can choose between a pretty travelling purse (with or without a strap), an original belt, a wallet, two different purses or braided bracelets. There is also the opcion of making a piece different from these which will be designed in the act…maybe something one always wanted to make….a handbag, a mobile phone case, a belt pouch ….if this is the case the teacher should be informed beforehand. I will also introduce them to the variety of different kinds of leather that exist. Each piece will be unique as we will use technique such as stamping or embossing to decorate it. For those who dont speak Spanish I speak perfect English as I am originally from Ireland. There will not be many of us in the worshop so we have the chance to get to know eachother without hurry.

This workshop presents attendees with the exciting chance to craft their very own custom leather item using nothing more than their own two hands and a touch of creativity. Participants have the freedom to opt for crafting a wallet, a travel pouch, a handbag, a belt - or perhaps something entirely of their own design. Don’t worry about difficulty - the instructor will guide you every step of the way. The joy of fashioning a functional, durable, and appealing handmade item is second to none! A notable highlight of this gathering is its location - the heart of Madrid’s oldest neighborhood, La Latina, near the Cebada Square. This is an area known for El Rastro - the largest street market held every Sunday, a treasure trove of Antiques and Handmade goods, accompanied by a vast array of eateries, bars, and coffee shops. One of the prominent streets is Ribera de Curtidores or the Tannery Street, famous for its numerous Leather shops.
