Bucket Bag Workshop. Sew your own leather bag!

This was a terrific experience, which included very good instructions and excellent guidance from Eli, in making my very own leather bucket bag in which to place my bucket list!

Absolutely brilliant. Eli is a very talented and relaxed teacher and we worked in an amazing workshop space with a great selection of machinery. My friend and I made very different bags which we are equally thrilled with. Highly recommend a workshop with Eli.

I really enjoyed my workshop with Eli. My friend and I both went off piste with our bags and she was happy to guide us through so they were still going to be functional! Love the use of offcut leather as a sustainable business, and it's all clearly excellent quality. Big thanks to Eli!

A very enjoyable day making a bucket bag with a pleasant tutor . It was good to be told what to do but actually allowed to do it. Would strongly recommend

Brilliant workshop - Eli was very helpful and infinitely patient. I made a beautiful bag which is much admired

Eli was fabulous and welcoming and fun and inspiring. The workshop is her lovely studio in her house its light and airy and it makes one feel very creative. I did the bucket bag course and it was so much fun, i learnt how to thin leather to work with leather to work out the dimensions of my bag , and it turned out beautifully.

My husband bought me a place on Eli’s Bucket Bag Workshop for my birthday > it was amazing!! Eli was extremely friendly and encouraging. She quickly put me at ease & inspired confidence. She had a wide range of leather colours to choose from and was happy to tailor the bag to my requirements. I would highly recommend attending one of her workshops and can’t wait to return to make something else!! It is a fabulous idea to salvage leather from clothes and furniture and to turn it into something lovely, unique and wearable. I had an amazing experience and would not hesitate to recommend these workshops.

Absolutely fab. Had a great time enjoyed every minute, time just flew by. Plus a bag to show off. Thank you

I had a lovely day with Eli, making my amazing bucket bag, used a great piece of leather and learnt lots of new techniques, learnt all about the different tools and used a commercial sewing machine....The end result a beautiful bag , and I've caught the leather bag bug, so hopefully I'll be making more, can't wait to do some more courses.

Great workshop and Eli was fantastic! She was really patient with us and guided us through every step of the process. She was really supportive and always made us feel comfortable so we really enjoyed the day.

Eli is wonderful teacher, I working with real leather, I learned something new, how to work with leather and easy way to make bag, beautiful job we done ✅ I recommend Eli and her work shop “Love and Salvage “

Great workshop with a VERY patient teacher! I learnt a lot & left with an amazing bag that is now my 'everyday' work bag!

My friend and I had a lovely day making our own bucket bags. There was a lot of fabric to choose from and the small group (just the two of us) meant we could ask as many questions as we wanted. Would definitely recommend :)

Enjoyed every minute! I can’t believe I managed to learn a new craft and gain a beautiful leather bag in the process! Thank you!

I absolutely loved my workshop day with Eli! She is so welcoming, friendly and patient. We managed to make a gorgeous orange bucket bag without any problems whatsoever. I shall definitely be making some more of these bags in the future!
