Workshop – Making hemp leashes and lanyards
Are you an animal lover looking for an original manual activity? The hemp leash and lanyard workshop is for you! Join Sarah, a saddler and harness-maker with a passion for her craft, for a unique and memorable experience.
During this 2-hour hands-on workshop, you’ll have the opportunity to work with hemp, a natural material renowned for its durability and strength. You’ll be guided step-by-step through the process of making your own custom leash or lanyard. And thanks to ancestral saddlery techniques, you can personalize your creation with brass or nickel snap hooks.
As well as taking home a leash or lanyard you’ve proudly created with your own hands, you can also draw on your new skills, such as knotting and braiding, and apply them to make other hard-wearing accessories for your four-legged companions.

About
S.R. Equestrement Vôtre
Once I had my master’s degree in history and archaeology, and after a few months of reflection, I realized that, in order to combine my love of horses and my need to work with my hands, I needed to move towards a more manual profession. After a one year training at the Haras de La-Roche-sur-Yon with Michel Charrier (MOF), a period as a saddler and harness maker at the Ecomusée d’Alsace, I have been self-employed for more than 2 years. The heart of my know-how is the harnessing of horses, as well as other animals, such as oxen, goats and dogs for example. I also make different items of saddlery and leather goods, keeping some equestrian elements, like harness buckles and the leather used is usually the same as the one I use in the harnessing.
