Title: Crafting Creativity: A Leather Workshop with Aditya Jirafe
Helixians came together for an inspiring evening of creativity and craftsmanship with Aditya Jirafe, a final-year Business Analytics student. Aditya shared his journey of discovering leather crafting during the COVID-19 circuit breakers and how he transformed this newfound interest into a meaningful passion.
The session began with Aditya’s personal story of how patience and practice transformed a simple hobby into a fulfilling creative outlet. His passion for crafting handmade leather pieces, often gifted to loved ones, resonated with attendees, sparking conversations about finding joy in hands-on creativity.
Following the talk, participants rolled up their sleeves for a hands-on workshop, learning the basics of leather crafting and making their own unique creations from scratch. From cutting to stitching, every step allowed Helixians to immerse themselves in the artistry of working with leather.
The event wrapped up with proud smiles as attendees took home their handcrafted leather coin pouches, each piece carrying a personal touch and newfound appreciation for the craft. This session was not just about making leather items, it was about embracing patience, creativity, and the joy of creating something truly meaningful.
