Leather Journal Making Workshop at Art Masterclass

Step into a slow, tactile experience where craftsmanship meets personal expression.
Over two hours, you will be guided through the process of creating your own genuine leather journal from start to finish. This is a space to pause, to work with your hands, and to create something both functional and deeply personal.

You’ll explore the natural character of leather, choose from a curated palette inspired by earth and bushland tones,oxblood, sage, and chestnut and bring your piece to life with thoughtful details. From selecting your journal size to customising the binding cord and finishing touches, each decision becomes part of your story.

Whether you choose to make one journal (A5) or both sizes(A5 and A6), this workshop invites you to slow down and reconnect with the process of making.


What you’ll get:

  • 2-hour guided, hands-on workshop
  • Genuine leather to create your journal
  • Choice of colours: oxblood, sage, or chestnut
  • Option to create A5 or A6 journal (or book a session to complete both)
  • All tools and materials provided
  • Choice of cover cord colour for customisation
  • A notebook insert of your choice (plain or lined)
  • A complimentary charm
  • Access to additional charms available for purchase on the day
  • Freedom to bring your own favourite notebook inserts
You will leave not just with a journal, but with something shaped by your own hands;
ready to hold ideas, sketches, reflections…
or simply the quiet moments in between.
