We present the Basic Millinery course taught by the 4th and 5th generation of Sombrereria Mil artisans. In the course you will learn the basic millinery techniques necessary to make a hat by hand from the capeline to the final finish. To learn and apply the techniques, you will make a hat by hand, which is valued at €150 in the store, and you can take it home. The material and tools to take the course will be provided by Sombrereria Mil, Barcelona.

The course lasts 6 hours and depending on the date, it is done in one intensive day or spread over 3 days. Saturdays are intensive one-day courses and during the week they are divided into sessions, one per week.

Once your course is purchased, we will call you or call us to choose the date.
