Inner Child Joy Craft Workshop

Make handmade Christmas gifts, reconnect with your inner child and enjoy a little Christmas magic.



2 hours Location Lewisham Class size 1 to 14 guests   $111 (Afterpay available)

Remember when making a gift for your friends or family as a child was almost automatic? And how special it felt to give them something you’d made yourself, even if it wasn’t that great? Hehe!
This workshop is about bringing back that intention. Making something personal for someone you love, putting your time and creativity into it, and rediscovering the joy of making something with your own hands. And you can make something special just for yourself, too!
Join us for a festive afternoon of Christmas crafting, handmade gifts and reconnecting with your playful, crafty inner child.
  • Make two handmade gifts
  • Create your own Christmas cards and gift tags
  • Reconnect with your inner child through craft and play
  • Enjoy Christmas tunes, Christmas cheer and a chance to connect with other women.
No need to buy all the supplies, make a mess at home or figure it all out yourself. Just come along, make a beautiful mess and enjoy creating something personal, handmade and a little imperfect.
You don’t need to be crafty or get everything perfect. You just need to come ready to play.

A trip to Disneyland sparked the idea for Inner Child JOY. Watching the parade outside the castle and seeing grown men and women waving at the characters we grew up with, I realized they weren’t just watching a parade. They were fulfilling a childhood dream. Seeing their faces light up with joy made me realize your childhood dreams don’t die, they just grow old with you. And doing the things you loved as a child, or always wanted to do, brings so much joy to adulthood.
It inspired me to create workshops for women. Women who grew up being the good girl, who colored in the lines, who never used the good stickers because they were too precious. I create workshops for women to sit down to craft and play like we’re 10 years old. We use the good stickers. We get busy with our hands to get out of our busy minds. We connect with our inner child and one another.
That experience inspired me to create workshops for women who grew up being the “good girl, ” who colored inside the lines, followed the rules, and saved the good stickers because they were too precious to use. In my workshops, we sit down to play, craft, and create like we are 10 again. We use the good stickers. We get out of our busy minds and into our hands. We reconnect with our inner child and with each other.
I have hosted many sold-out workshops across Sydney, was recently featured in the Sydney Morning Herald's Mother’s Day gift guide as an influential mum sharing my Mother’s Day picks. I have curated events for City of Sydney including Sydney Streets and other local councils. I also host private events including team building, hens parties, and birthdays. I also run Mother & Daughter workshops designed to deepen connection through play in the school holidays.
