  • 2-day Slides & Mule Making Workshop

    This class was a ton of fun & packs a lot in for one day. Lots of choices for materials which are included in the cost of the class - although everyone in class was working from the same pattern, the finished shoes were all unique. The instructor Bonnie was wonderful at explaining the process & very helpful when anyone got stuck. Brooklyn Shoe Space is really cool, with regular members coming in to work while the class was going on - you could tell what a wonderful collaborative space it is, with everyone around enthusiastic about the work and sharing ideas & tips with each other. I have a feeling this won't be my last pair of shoes or my last visit to the space. This is a FULL day of work (and our class ran late as our instructor ensured that everyone left with a finished project) so come prepared for a marathon of making!

    My instructor Bonnie was the best. I showed up rather early so we chatted while she set up the class. It was very informative and she really helped us make some great shoes, rather than letting my sloppy work slide. It ended up taking us longer than the allotted time but she stayed and I'm glad she did. My shoes turned out beautifully and they look professionally made. I wore them out and they're comfortable too. I hope to take more classes soon!

  • 2-day Slides & Mule Making Workshop

    Very fun and super informative -- Bonnie was amazing! I made my first pair of shoes ^^ It's a full day class so expect to be on the tired side by the end of it.

  • 2-day Slides & Mule Making Workshop

    Loved the class. Got a lot more than I expected. She even stayed a bit extra to help us out with small things like personalizing our shoe soles to have our initials on them. Super friendly. Really patient. Great space. Had everything we needed. Very fast pace. I have taken a few similar courses but have never gotten so much done in such little time. Love my shoes.
