Are these workshop suitable for beginners?
I have designed the workshops for all levels of experience. If you have never sewn before I will show you how to use the industrial sewing machine and any other tool required.

Workshop dates
I generally schedule workshops 3 months in advance. Sign up to the newsletter and I’ll let you know when new dates are announced!

How do I find your workshop?
The workshop is located 340 – 342 Johnston St, Abbotsford, VIC 3067, Melbourne / Naarm.

What should I bring?
Just your sweet self. If it's a hot day wear lightweight clothes and if not, an extra jacket. There are cafes nearby for lunch and hot drinks.

Are vegan leathers available?
I’m sorry, but no! I hope that one day soon vegan leathers will become more accessible, but as Shoe School a small business I’m  unable to import the range I'd like to.

Are gift vouchers available?
I do understand that shoemaking workshops make a perfect gift! Unfortunately though I've decided not to issue gift cards anymore. That's because I had a huge number of unclaimed gift cards when I left NZ last year and had to issue a lot of refunds (which is tough for a small business like mine). As an alternative you could consider booking your loved one into a workshop date.

Do you offer payment plans?
Yes! Unfortunately my website doesn’t allow me to offer Afterpay, but email me and I create an invoice which you’re welcome to pay in instalments.
