Stick It - Glue Book and Junk Journal Club Experience

Cut it. Tear it. Stick it. Scribble on it. There are no rules here.



2.5 hours Class size 1 to 8 guests    

  $35 - $49 ($35 for Weekday; $49 for Weekend)

Remember glue books?
A pile of magazines, a glue stick, stickers you were saving for something special, and hours spent cutting out anything you liked and sticking it onto a page simply because it made you happy.
Stick It! is basically that - but for grown-ups.
Join me at Messy Makes for a relaxed creative play session where you’ll get a couple of glorious hours to switch off, make a mess, and play in your journal.
Bring along your glue book, scrapbook, junk journal, or art journal, and I’ll provide the good stuff.
You’ll have access to a big shared stash of scrapbook papers, magazines, stickers, washi tapes, markers, ephemera, and all sorts of lovely bits and pieces for you to cut, tear, layer, scribble on, and stick into your pages.
There’s no project you have to finish.
There’s no example yours needs to look like.
And nobody is going to ask you what it means.
You might create a beautifully coordinated vintage spread.
You might make a page entirely in pink.
You might cover something in stickers.
You might cut up old magazines, layer papers, add a bit of paint, or scribble over the top.
You might stick something down simply because you like it.
That’s the point.
Stick It! isn’t really a traditional art class. Think of it as a regular creative play date - a place where you can come, sit around the table with other women, and actually use all those lovely creative things instead of saving them for “one day”.
And if staring at a blank page makes your brain suddenly forget every creative idea you’ve ever had, don’t worry. I’ll always have some simple prompts and ideas on hand to help you get started.
You don’t need any art or journaling experience. You don’t even need to consider yourself creative.
You just need to come curious.

Messy Makes is a creative workshop space for women who want to make, play and try something new — without the pressure to be perfect.
It’s for the craft-curious, the serial hobby collectors, the 3am Pinterest scrollers, and anyone with a cupboard full of supplies they absolutely *had* to buy… but are now too nice to use.
Hi, I’m Leoné — lifelong maker, creative rabbit-hole enthusiast, collector of far too many craft supplies, and the person behind Messy Makes.
I started Messy Makes because I wanted to create the kind of creative space I’d love to go to myself: somewhere relaxed and welcoming where women can get together, learn something new, have a laugh and spend a few glorious hours simply making things.
Because somewhere between childhood and adulthood, creativity got a bit… serious.
Suddenly things had to be good. Or useful. Or beautiful. Or worthy of posting on Instagram.
So we save the good paper.
We don’t use the expensive paint.
We buy the 48-pack because obviously the 12-pack simply will not do — and then become slightly terrified of actually using any of it.
And sometimes we get so caught up worrying about whether we’ll make something good that we forget the whole reason we wanted to make something in the first place:
because making stuff is FUN.
I’m learning to let go of that too.
Messy Makes is my invitation to do it together.
Our workshops are relaxed, welcoming and beginner-friendly. You don’t need to be artistic. You don’t need to be “crafty”. And you definitely don’t need to know what you’re doing.
I’ll bring the materials, show you where to start and give you enough guidance to get going. Then you get to experiment, play, change your mind, make something a little wonky and see where it takes you.
Come learn a new technique, meet lovely people and spend a few hours doing something purely for yourself.
Use the good supplies.
Try the thing.
Make it imperfect.
Messy Makes - permission to play.
