Make your own leather bag charm by Belinda Werschkull - Workshop - March 8
- Description
By handbag Designer Belinda Werschkull
One of the handbag designers we proudly work with for our designs.
This Moment invites you to create your own bag charm from start to finish. A personal object shaped by your hands, choices and attention.
At the heart of this Moment is the quiet magic of making.
Working with high-quality leather, you move through a gentle making process that connects material, form and meaning. By choosing your leather colour, shape and details, you create a charm that reflects something personal - highlighting the relationship between making, identity, and what we choose to carry with us.
Leather is a tactile, living material. As you cut, fill and stitch by hand, the object gradually takes shape. Thought moves into touch. Intention becomes form.
The making process unfolds step by step: you choose your leather colour, select a shape or letter, decide between a flat or softly filled form, and stitch the charm by hand. For those who wish, a bead or tassel can be added as a final personal accent.
The bag charm becomes more than an accessory.
It turns into a small symbol of memory, care and creativity - something personal you choose to carry with you. The process celebrates craftsmanship, attention and the beauty of imperfection, reminding us that handmade objects hold a presence of their own. Almost like art.
This Moment offers space to slow down, reconnect with material, and experience the quiet satisfaction of owning something that exists simply because you made it.

Her fascination with bags runs deep. Bags are everyday companions, often holding what matters most, and telling something about who we are. Through Studio Macnas, Belinda explores how design, craftsmanship and material awareness can shape a more thoughtful relationship with what we carry and wear.
Her practice spans custom-made bags, experimental materials, workshops and education around sustainable making and entrepreneurship. Through her work, Belinda invites us to rethink value, process and attention and how making can become a meaningful act in itself.

Sustainability
At REVUSD, sustainability isn’t a trend—it’s a belief. We don’t produce on demand—we create from what already exists. What’s left over deserves a second life, and we give it a stage.
Our bags are made from unused leather—surplus, rejected batches, and overproduction from industries like aviation, fashion, and automotive. Perfect leather, just not ‘perfect enough’ for the mainstream. For us, it’s exactly right.
from linings to Details
From linings to details, we use deadstock and overstock—materials already made, nothing wasted. Because we work with what we find, we produce in small batches. No more, no faster, no mass production.
All our prototypes are handcrafted in the Netherlands and Belgium, where our designs come to life. Final production happens in a small, trusted workshop in Istanbul, where each piece is made with care, precision, and honest craftsmanship.
Even our shipping is mindful—only in full trucks, often combined with family visits. Keeping our chain small, warm, and considered.
Crafted with care. Rooted in connection.
