Welcome to Manon's workshop, where sustainability meets style and hands-on craftsmanship! If you have ever wanted to work with second-chance leather, now is your chance.
In this small group setting, with a maximum of four participants, you will learn the ins and outs of leather crafting directly from Manon. Throughout the day you will have the opportunity to work with different colours and types of leather, using all the materials and sewing machines provided.
No previous sewing experience is necessary - Manon will be there to help you every step of the way. You will start with an introduction to second-chance leather and leatherwork, followed by hands-on instruction on the technique and in choosing the best leather pieces.
At the end of the workshop, you will leave with your very own handmade shopper. This experience will give you an appreciation of sustainable craftsmanship and the satisfaction of contributing to a more environmentally conscious approach to fashion.
So come and join Manon for a day of learning and creating & make a positive impact!

Meet Manon
Leatherworker
Meet Manon, the founder, designer and creator of KRAM KRAM leather design. Since 2018, she's been dedicated to creating sustainable, stylish and functional items made from second-chance leather. Manon distinguishes herself by only using leather that is labeled as surplus by the major fashion houses. This is how this leather is saved from going to waste.
Tired of seeing products where aesthetics were prioritised over sustainability and functionality, Manon decided to make a change. She quit her job as a teacher to pursue her passion for creating durable and eco-friendly leather goods. Each item in the KRAM KRAM leather design collection is personally designed and made by Manon.
Manon believes in giving new life to leather that would otherwise go to waste. And by using second-chance leather, she ensures that each piece is of high quality and contributes to a more environmentally conscious approach to fashion.
