From: Yasmine Khelifi yasmine@atelierkhelifi.tn Subject: Website for my leather workshop
Hello,
My name is Yasmine, I run a leather workshop in the medina of Tunis. I've been making bags, wallets, belts, and custom pieces for fifteen years — all by hand, vegetable-tanned leather, traditional techniques my grandmother taught me.
I sell from my workshop and through two boutiques in Sidi Bou Said, but I'm getting more and more interest from abroad. People visit Tunisia, find my work, go home, and then can't find me online. There's nothing — no website, no page, just a photo on one boutique's Instagram that I didn't even post.
I want a proper website. Something that shows my work the way it deserves — the leather, the colours, the stitching, the scale of the bags. Not thumbnails. I want people to see what they're getting. I also want a page about my process — how I tan the leather, the tools I use, where the craft comes from. And a way for people to contact me directly.
I don't need a shop — my pieces are all different, I can't put them in a cart. People see something, they reach out, we talk about it. That's how it works.
It needs to work on phones. That's how most people will see it.
I have lots of photos I've taken over the years. I can send them whenever you're ready.
Thank you for taking this on. I'm excited to finally have something online.
Yasmine
