I just took the leather journal making class and I gotta say..... 10/10 highly recommend! For $25…read moreyou make a simple tri-fold leather journal. It's a total steal! They provide the tools and materials and the instructor (Eric) walks you through everything - from drafting a template to making that bungee bind, you walk home with a personalized journal cover AND the foundational skills needed to make more if you like. (Note: that last part requires you to buy your own tools, leather, and such....) Pro Tip: Bring your own journal! If not, they provide one for you (included in the price). I brought my journal because she's chonky. At the end of two hours, I felt like I took something super special home. I loved the class so much that I bought some additional tools to spice up my new cover. Plus, I had elastic cord at home to personalize it even more. Again, I can't say enough about what a good experience this was. The journal class sells out quickly, so sign up ASAP! P.S. Shout out to Eric who was taking care of the shop alone. He had to simultaneously teach and handle customers. I appreciated how patient he was with everyone. He didn't try to rush people and gave everyone his full attention. Plus, the classes ended on time. Bravo!

I took a journal-making class, which is offered twice a month and gets filled up very quickly. There are other "how to" classes including basket-weaving, belt-making, card game case, journal holster, wallet, etc. It's super neat and it's a fun activity to do with other strangers! Price isn't bad and I appreciate how cool everyone is here! Will be coming back for another class.

Randall the owner said it would take 2 weeks . He called me a week and half later and when I went to pick it up- OMG! I was so impressed by Randall's work. The heels were replaced nicely and on top of that he shined my leather boots! I was satisfied with my work especially when you love your shoes and don't want to get rid of it bc it still has some life to go. Also, I had a really bad scuff on the tip of my mauve color boots and he said he tried to polish with a similar color but boy! It doesn't look noticeable at all. He was able to cover it. I will come back and bring my other shoes too.m because Randall's work is very detailed. Thank you!

The welt feels like real leather, but I won't pretend to know enough to tell the difference. The leather on the soles was high quality though, it was from a company in italy, I forgot the name, but seems very strong and durable and it was only $90 for the half sole, I believe. It was done quite quickly, I believe 3 or 4 days if I remember correctly. The exchange was quick and easy, both with drop off and pickup. Edit: I just removed the insole and noticed that one of the new nails was not clipped nearly enough. It's coming up a considerable amount and actually damaged the insole. Luckily the insole is thick enough to cushion it from cutting my foot.
