Team Building Through Craft: A Leather Workshop with Meta
At Meta’s Los Angeles office, we hosted a hands-on team building leather workshop designed to bring people together through creativity. With a group of 30 team members from different regions, the goal was simple yet meaningful: create something by hand, express individuality, and connect beyond daily work routines.
Make Something From Scratch
During the workshop, each participant crafted a leather keychain from start to finish. From assembling the leather pieces to learning the basics of leathercraft, the process encouraged focus, patience, and creativity. No prior experience was needed — just curiosity and a willingness to try something new.
Personalization That Makes It Yours
To complete the experience, every guest had the chance to personalize their keychain with onsite embossing. Initials were pressed into the leather, transforming each handmade piece into a keepsake that felt truly personal. This final step turned the workshop from a group activity into something lasting, something participants could carry with them long after the day ended.
Designed For Connection
Workshops like this are especially powerful for teams made up of members from different regions. As participants worked side by side, conversations flowed naturally about design choices, travel stories, and everyday life. The shared creative process made it easy to break the ice and build genuine connections in a relaxed, welcoming environment.
Simple Setup, Meaningful Impact
Our setup for this workshop was intentionally simple. We only required tables and chairs, allowing the Meta team to host the experience comfortably within their own office. Our team handled the materials, tools, guidance, and embossing station, ensuring a smooth and engaging experience from start to finish.
A Thoughtful Approach To Team Building
This leather keychain workshop with Meta was a reminder that team building doesn’t have to be loud or elaborate to be effective. Sometimes, the most impactful moments come from slowing down, creating with your hands, and sharing the experience with others.
If you’re looking for a team building activity that encourages creativity, collaboration, and connection, we’d love to help design something meaningful for your team.

FAQ
What do you need for your onsite embossing set up?

Do you provide the leather goods, or can we supply our own?
Both options work! We can supply premium leather goods that are perfectly tested for embossing, such as luggage tags, keychains, card holders, wallets, and more. If you’d like to provide your own items, we just ask for 2 sample pieces in advance to test compatibility with our machines.
How long does it take to emboss an item?
On average, 1–3 minutes per item. This gives your staff valuable time to engage with guests, share your brand story, or demo your products while they wait for their personalized gift.
What kinds of embossing do you offer?
We provide blind debossing (tone-on-tone) as our standard, and also offer foil embossing as an upgrade for events looking for a touch of luxury.
How many guests can you serve at an event?
This depends on the event size and duration. For small groups, one machine and two staff are often enough. For large activations, we can bring multiple embossing machines and team members to serve hundreds of guests efficiently.
Do you travel for events?
Yes—we provide onsite embossing nationwide (and occasionally internationally). Travel fees may apply depending on the event location.
