Customer Reviews
This class was a lot of fun and I absolutely love the belt. I'm looking forward to attending other classes in the future!
Nick is an excellent teacher, and great at meeting each participant where they are skill and knowledge wise.
We always love taking the kinds of classes where you make something you'll actually use, and learn skills that are timeless.
I’ll be the first to admit precision isn’t my forte, but Nick kindly and patiently walked me through each step. It was fun to learn a little bit more about leather and come away with a belt I now wear at least three times a week! Really enjoyed the small class size and careful attention Nick paid to all his students.
Class was awesome, straight forward and accessible to those of all skill level. I didn’t realize how satisfying working with leather was. Thank you, Nick. I’ll be keeping an eye out for other classes and definitely recommending.
This was a fun class! Nick was a great teacher and I left with a belt that I love.
