Sunshine Coast

classes: Pottery

Women-owned

I started crafty hobbies as a way of finding out more about myself, fulfilling a need to try new things and the ultimate desire to find a passion that wasn't my unfulfilling corporate job. I absolutely fell in love with putting a good audiobook or show on, zoning out from the world and making things with my hands. I find it deeply therapeutic and want to share that with others so they can feel the same!

I decided to start hosting events because I deeply wanted to be a part of a creative community on the Sunshine Coast but struggled to find something that tickled my fancy. I also find that the coast is a hard place to make new friends and was searching for a place that would enable that. I took a belated gap year (at the ripe age of 26) and used my free headspace to dream up a vision for what I wanted. I decided to say f*ck it and that when I got home, I would start hosting the events that I wish were available for me.

My ultimate dream is to build a space where people feel comfortable to try new things and come to make new friends. I want to encourage people to find hobbies outside of work and unlock the creative side of their brain that we all have.

I fixate on a new craft every week and I want people to ideally be able to come to each event and try something new every time. So the type of events I do change, but my favorites are:

make your own ceramic mug
junk journaling
BYO craft nights

I have been making ceramics for 3 years now, so that is my main area of interest, but I like to keep the events different and ensure I'm feeling inspired by them too. I started hosting these events in January 2023 and have met the most amazing, creative people who are just so nice to talk to and share ideas with.

My main target audience is women in their 20s-30s, but of course anyone is welcome <3
