Course Outline
Working rawhide gives us a unique view into the world of our ancestors and strengthens our connection to our own natural resources.
​
So many hides are left in the bush or brought home and left for years in the freezer after hunting season.
​
After completing the hides, you can then decide if you want to use them for tanning into buckskin leather or use raw or even ship to be tanned commercially
Â
The course includes:
Â
-
This hands on workshop guides you through each step in creating a Deer, Elk or Moose rawhide
-
This can be used in traditional crafts
-
Turned into leather
-

​
​
​
Simple, but not easy to produce, compared to tanned leather.
​
-
Rawhide is a firmer medium to work with making it ideal for use in making lashing, parfleches, drums and more.
-
Rawhide can be found in clothing, shoes, containers, glue, archery, musical instruments etc.
Â
Time and patience!
