Why buy off-the-rack when you can wear your own artwork? In this hands-on workshop, you’ll transform a plain denim jacket into a one-of-a-kind statement piece, learning a mix of painting, embellishment, and design techniques along the way.
Across four hours, you’ll be guided step by step through the creative process:
  • Design Planning – Start by sketching out your ideas, themes, and colours to set the tone for your jacket.
  • Surface Prep – Learn how to prepare denim for painting so your designs look sharp and last.
  • Painting Techniques – Explore stencilling, freehand painting, and other methods to bring your design to life.
  • Embellishments – Add extra flair with patches, trims, jewels, studs, lace, and vintage details. You’ll also learn how to use a heat press and sewing machine to attach embellishments like a pro.
No two jackets will ever look the same; this is your chance to create something completely personal, wearable, and bold.
Note: You can bring your own jacket or add on a denim jacket in your size and colour preference at checkout. We will do our best to match your colour preference.
