Making your own handbag worksho

The make your own handbag workshop in Covent Garden. London was so much fun. The store is brand new and beautiful. Parker and Mona helped us make the handbags in the workshop and they were super helpful and fun to be with so glad I learned about this workshop, I had heard about the workshop being in the Edinburgh stores, but then was so excited when I realized that there was a new one in Covent Garden since we weren’t going to Scotland on this trip. I highly recommend this experience. Great fun and camaraderie with the group while we were making our bags and came away with a beautiful unforgettable souvenir. Thanks, Parker and Mona.!!

Brilliant experience at Islander Covent Garden

Excellent experience - so glad they have opened the Islander experience in Covent Garden. Benedict and Parker were brilliant, very patient and knowledgeable. This is a GREAT value for money experience. The manager Caroline was also so welcoming.

Well run, fun experience with a beautiful bag

Had such a lovely time making bags with my daughter and mother in law. The hosts Chantelle and myanne were so lovely, chatty, attentive and knowledgeable about the business. The experience was great fun although a little fiddly! Great selection to choose from and options to upgrade were reasonably priced!

Great for all ages

It was so much fun! Our group of six, ranging in age from 10 - 73, all enjoyed making our own, “purse”onalized bags. Thank you! We highly recommend

Great experience! Love the range of possibilities!

We loved it.. You have a lot of items to choose from: the colour of the bag, the form of the bag, the colors of the straps, … You make your own bag, that is never made before and all made by yourself. With perfect guidance of two super friendly members of staff! Thank you and see you again.

Custom Design Your Own Purse

Such a great workshop to celebrate your own style Harris Tweed purse! So many options, it was hard to decide how to design my own. Our instructors were amazing explaining how to put the purse together and teaching us about Harris Tweed and it's history. I would definitely do this again. So glad I had the chance to experience this workshop in London.

Amazing time! Cool experience!

Amazing time here! We made a medium satchel and backpack with Samantha and Matthew! They were so helpful and shared cool facts about the bags during our time there. They were patient and offered assistance when needed! The process was fun and we left with an amazing piece of memorabilia of our time in the UK! Would definitely come back again! Also, afterwards we shopped around and the associates were kind and helpful as well!! Again, highly recommend! So worth it!

They are off to a great start.

We had a lovely time choosing and building our bags. It was a fantastic experience, I had it on my bucket list for Edinburgh but managed to get it off the list in Covent Garden. I do hope they get their payment system working, I had to go to an ATM to get cash to pay for the upgrade

Fantastic experience

Wow, what a lovely experience it was to be able to craft our own designs on bags/satchels.Such an array of colours to choose from. All aspect of piecing together our bags was fully explained at every stage. Workshop group size was perfect for the event. Lovely friendly ladies who helped make our time there very special. Time just flew by! Would certainly recommend for all ages and abilities.
