# Leathercraft Workshop in the Rastro of Madrid

**Guidekin's take:** Make a personalised leather wallet, handbag or glasses case in the Rastro of Madrid on a private tour for your party. The workshop includes instruction, a drink and an appetizer; gratuities are extra. 4.94 from 80 reviews at €50 per person for 3h.

## Overview

This workshop offers the participants the opportunity of making their own personalized leather object using only their hands and a little imaginacion. The participants can choose between a wallet, a travelling purse, a handbag, a glasses case, ..or maybe they wish to design something different . The process is not difficult and the teacher will help all the time. The satisfaction of creating a useful, long lasting and attractive piece of handcraft is incomparable! Another highlight of this experience is the fact that the workshop is situated in the centre of Madrid which is the oldest part of the city, in a neighbourhood called La Latina which is near the Cebada Square. It is an area where the biggest Street Market takes place every Sunday called El Rastro. El Rastro is full of Antique and Handcraft shops and stalls, together with a great amount of restaurants, bars and coffee shops. One of the main streets is Ribera de Curtidores or Tannery road where there are many Leather shops.
