Sheepskin Slipper Workshop - Soil for Life

Welcome to winter!

To celebrate this glorious hibernating season, we are changing up our usual barefoot leather shoe workshop and welcome back our popular Sheepskin slipper workshop, but this year we have a BRAND NEW design that we are SOO excited to share!

This workshop will teach you some of the fundamental skills in working with sheep skin as well as the diverse uses of tools used in leather work. From this workshop, you will gain the insights needed to start your own shoe projects and know the ins and outs of stitching, working with patterns, and securely attaching soles to shoes, yet another translatable skill if you would like to re-sole any once beloved shoes. These slippers are made with a buffalo leather hide, but we do offer the option to add on a foam base with a latex sole for those wanting to step outside with them. If you would prefer that, please be sure to add the additional sole to your ticket when purchasing your workshop ticket.

Join Summer, a passionate and knowledgeable leather crafter and facilitator, on a journey that has left many immensely satisfied with their newfound self-reliance.

No previous leather working or shoe-making experience is needed; beginners are welcome and encouraged.

Hot soup and bread will be provided as well as tea and coffee to warm the winter shackles, while we enjoy a day of passionate crafting in our glorious social environment in the immensely beautiful gardens under the stretch tent with a cosy fire.

Tickets are limited to offer you the best facilitation possible. If you have any questions, please reach out to Summer or Carlos on 078 745 7653 or email [email protected] for more information. You can also check out our website HERE for other exciting classes they offer
