Handmade Wallet
For the first time, Aaron is taking his leatherworking classes on the road—bringing hands-on learning to new locations across the country.
Join us for a one-day workshop where you’ll build a wallet alongside Aaron in a small-group setting designed for real, focused learning.
This class is all about getting back to the fundamentals—hand cutting, hand skiving, hand sewing, and hand burnishing. You’ll work with premium harness and bridle leathers to create a clean, durable wallet while building skills you’ll use every day.
Each class is limited to just 12 students, giving you plenty of time for questions, personal instruction, and one-on-one guidance throughout the build.
By the end of the day, you’ll walk away with a finished, heirloom-quality wallet—and a deeper understanding of the techniques behind it.
Whether you’re looking to sharpen your skills or spend the day building something you’re proud of, this workshop delivers a hands-on experience you won’t forget.
What to Bring
We’ll provide the leather kit, hardware, patterns, and instruction—you just need to bring a few of your favorite shop tools.

- Cutting board
- Leather cutting knife
