Paint your bookshelf

Paint Your Bookshelf

Your 3D printed bookshelf will be primed black and ready to be painted, whether you want to leave it black or add some details using paint or paint pens. It is up to you!


Paint your pumpkin

Paint Your Pumpkin

Want to just go traditional orange? Black? Silver? Add glitter? Whatever you like!


Age your frame

Age Your Frame

Give your frame a more authentic feel by aging it with brown ink. Or paint your frame a different colour if you prefer.


Create a mini artwork

Create a Mini Artwork

Paint a tiny portrait to sit on or rest against your shelf. These can be of whatever you want, like a silhouette, a ghost or a little landscape.


Pick your poison!

Pick Your Poison

Choose from one of these pre-filled jars and leave them as is, or empty them and add glitter, water or whatever you can imagine!


Age those books

Age Those Books

Why not have one open with some cheeky spells? Your teacher will also show you how to make paper look older to roll your own mini scrolls.


Play with different layouts

Play with Different Layouts

Move ornaments around to create the layout you like best. Add finishing touches like spiderwebs!

You can either take the shelf home without attaching the items permanently so that you can rearrange whenever you like or you can glue them on so they stay put!


Want something cute and fun to add to your Halloween decorations? Make a mini bookshelf or Halloween display!
In this two-hour casual workshop, you will start by painting your bookshelf, whether you wish to keep it black, add finer designs with paint pens or colour it however you'd like. Your teacher will also have a selection of patterned papers that can be used to inlay in the back of the shelves for a wallpaper effect.
Once you have decorated the shelf itself and set it aside to dry, you can decorate a mini jack-o'-lantern, fill some potion bottles, create some designs within your tiny books and create a tiny artwork for your frame.
Now you can paint or weather your frame and put it together, then we can start constructing your one-of-a-kind shelf creation!
While you will learn some decorating techniques, this class is mostly just a fun experience using mostly complete items with very simple steps that require no prior technical knowledge and is suitable for ages 12+.
Note: Shelves are slightly different from the example created (see first image) as we felt these being slightly larger would give more opportunity for play!

We host our own regular sessions and the space is also available to book for those looking for a venue to run their own classes.
The team behind The Shop of Little Shops have been into crafting from a young age with experience in many different areas between the three of us including sewing, paper making, cross stitch, painting, watercolour, drawing, crochet, paper craft, cricut, terrariums, colouring, jewellery making and more. We love nothing more than getting our craft on and exploring new (and familiar) ways to get creative.
