Leather Crafting DIY Workshop - Taipei Culture Experience one-day tour

Feel the leather,

Seek the extraordinary in an ordinary life

“Leather-Playing Children” is a handmade leather brand established in our community. Playful elves live in the energetic hands of children. The patience and aesthetic creativeness of children are cultivated through learning and making leather products. It also provides parents with an opportunity to develop a second expertise. Children playing with leather brand their toughness and unique life nutrients onto the leather materials to make each warm and practical piece of work.

Brother Chiou has lived in Sanxia for several decades. He was a senior gardener who developed an interest for leather creation through self-taught learning after retirement. Thus, he decided to become a worker at the workshop to enjoy his passion for creation. He also shares such interest with inhabitants and travelers through experience exchange.

Brother Chiou shares life with the youths and children of the community. “Retired yet moving forward” is a practice of the ethos of life.

Leather is a touch of romance rubbed in life. It can be cut, carved and sewn. You can project all of your imaginations onto leather to make it the life you desire. The warm and moist feeling to the hands, and the color tones you love. Make the piece into the creation on your mind. With a faint breath rubbed into the leather, choose items for your own life and use leather to make your ordinary life more elegant.

Leather is a pursuit of life for finding an exclusive texture among the turmoil. It represents a certain manifestation in life. Experience it personally; allow leather to create something extraordinary in a small corner in life.
