Make a Leather Cell Phone Bag

Ever wondered if the movie Fame is really what art/design school is like? Let's just say that it was the complete opposite for me. After losing my corporate job and pursuing every creative opportunity I could to make ends meet, I enrolled in fashion design school (with no money) to kill time and discover my next step. After drawing and draping classes and proving gatekeepers wrong, I found my passion: handbags. Since then, I've transformed my passion and entrepreneurial spirit into Nikki&Mallory, an artisan-made collection and brand of handcrafted leather goods. After years of growing my business and finding purpose in inspiring women, makers, entrepreneurs & creatives alike - I also found the light inside myself and used it to transcend a dark time. It's not about grinding and non-stop hustle but tuning out the world and embarking on a journey to find what feeds your soul.

Treasure is the owner of Nikki&Mallory which specializes in artisan-made leather handbags, accessories, and home décor - plus, she has impeccable style. In her day-to-day life as a designer, she often prefers to skip a bulky purse and carry a slim cell phone bag instead. In this class, she shows you how to make your own bohemian-inspired leather cell phone bag. It can accommodate phones of all sizes, and it has a convenient shoulder strap and front pocket. From sourcing leather, cutting it, to stitching it all together on a home sewing machine, Treasure breaks down each step, making this the perfect project for the beginner leatherworker.
