Discover the Art of Leathercraft with Private Lessons with Kellen
At Sunhouse Goods, sharing the craft of leatherworking is a passion.
Since 2020, we've been offering private lessons, helmed by Kellen, our supremely skilled Head Craftsman, specializing in luxury handbag and purse design and construction. Kellen has successfully trained numerous students in our studio, imparting expert knowledge and techniques.
In 2022, we had the opportunity to take lesson on the road for the first time and conducted group workshop sessions in Los Angeles and private lessons in Palm Springs, covering fundamental to advanced handbag construction.
Our students, some traveling from out of state, join us for intensive week-long training sessions in our studio. We're also flexible, sometimes bringing the training to your home. We warmly welcome students of all skill levels.
Our instruction approach is project-based, allowing you to work alongside Kellen on a project from start to finish. You pay for the piece and the invaluable instruction, with our pricing formula being twice the cost of the project.
We're thrilled at the opportunity to have Kellen teach you this timeless craft. Reach out to us via the form below, and let's embark on this creative journey together.

“Spending three days training with Kellen helped me ramp up my knowledge and confidence more than I could have hoped for. His training style of working with you on a project is much more effective than just telling you what to do. He is patient and encouraging throughout the process (even when you are messing up). His studio is a calm, clean, organized area and he creates an environment conducive to enjoyable learning. The institutional knowledge he has of the industry, tools and techniques is readily shared in order to help you become a better craftsperson. If you want to elevate your skills and have fun doing it, I highly recommend spending time with Kellen at Sunhouse Goods. “

“As an established leather worker, working with Kellen took my game to a whole new level. The entire process was incredibly straightforward. Kellen answered every single question I had even before we started. The two-day course honed my skills and gave me the confidence to provide a product that garners the attention I know my craftsmanship deserves. At ANY experience level, I highly recommend a session with Kellen.”
