Leather Wrap Bracelet Making Class | Design Custom Boho Jewelry in Boston

Imagine the soft weight of leather wrapping around your wrist, gemstones you chose with your own hands catching the light with every movement—not a bracelet you bought online, but one you designed and stitched yourself, bead by bead, wrap by wrap. This isn't just a jewelry class; it's your invitation to create something that feels like you, something you'll reach for every morning because it matches your energy, your style, your story. Whether you're drawn to minimalist elegance with a single strand of turquoise or bohemian abundance with layers of crystals and silver, this beginner-friendly workshop teaches you the leather wrap bracelet technique that's been trending for years—and you'll leave class wearing a custom wrap bracelet that's entirely, authentically yours.

What You'll Learn

This popular design has been a fashion favorite for over a decade, and once you learn the technique, you can customize it endlessly to match your personal style.

By the end of class, you'll:

• Understand how to work with leather cord and choose the right length for your design

What's Included

Your class fee includes everything you need to create one double-wrap leather bracelet:

• Leather cord for a single-strand bracelet (enough for 1 wrap around your wrist)
• Needle and thread specifically designed for leather work
• Clasp to finish your bracelet with style
• Use of all tools during class
• Expert instruction from Stacy Connolly, jewelry maker, Crystal Healer, Reiki Master, and co-founder of Hidden Jewel
• Take-home instruction guide with complete step-by-step photos

Choose Your Beads & Customize Your Design

Beads are included in the class fee, which gives you complete creative freedom to design a bracelet that's perfectly aligned with your style, intention, and budget.

Use our extensive bead collection
We have an abundance of beads:

• Semi-precious gemstones (amethyst, rose quartz, labradorite, turquoise, and more)
• Healing crystals charged with Reiki energy
• Glass, wood, bone, and ceramic beads
  

If you have beads at home you'd love to incorporate, bring them! This is a great way to use beads from broken jewelry, inherited pieces, or your personal collection.

This flexible approach means every student leaves with a completely unique bracelet that reflects their personal style and energy.
