Kids Banner Workshop: Make Your Own Name Pennant (Ages 12–15)

Create a retro-style banner for your room.



11 to 15 years     6 hours Class size 10 to 16 guests       $135 (PayPal Pay in 4 available)

Create your own graphic pennant inspired by vintage camp banners, using hand stitching and embroidery techniques.
In this school holiday workshop designed for older kids and teens, participants will design and create a bold, personalised pennant using layered shapes, colour, and typography. Drawing on a curated palette of materials, they’ll explore how to combine simple elements into a clean, cohesive design.
Using templates as a starting point, students can create their name, initials, or a word that feels meaningful to them, working with strong shapes and lettering to build a piece that reflects their own style.
With guidance on layout, spacing, and composition, each pennant will feel balanced and intentional, with plenty of room for personalisation and creative choice.
Finished pieces will include simple stitch detailing and will be ready to hang, creating a piece of room décor that feels considered, individual, and a little more grown-up.
Why They Will Love It:
This workshop is perfect for kids who enjoy design, colour, and making something that reflects their personal style. Inspired by vintage banners and modern handmade interiors, each pennant will feel clean, graphic, and completely their own—something they’ll actually want to hang in their room.

Creating balance with creativity & connection

Made by Me Workshop is about helping people to connect with their "inner creative" and have some fun while making beautiful things from quality materials in our friendly & vibrant studio space in the heart of the inner west!
Established in 2017 after Rebecca Doyle decided to take a career break and chose to revisit her childhood love for arts & crafts. Rebecca grew up in a large family where money was tight, after school activities where mostly homegrown and usually involved a sheet of cardboard, a glue stick and some glitter! It is probably no surprise to learn that Rebecca followed a creative path to study Fashion & Textile Design at University!
After a few more decades (than Rebecca will publicly admit to) and a long and varied career in the fashion industry, Rebecca wanted to get back to creating beautiful, one-of-a-kind objects - Made By Me Workshop is the result of where this path led.
Rebecca loves that moment of pride that comes over each participant's face when they look at what they have created and say to themselves "Wow - I made this & I love it!"
Made by Me Workshop run a variety of creative workshops, hen’s parties, private parties and corporate events from their warehouse space in St Peters including Resin Art, Resin Jewellery & Mould Making, Soap Making, Terrazzo Homewares, Punch Needle, Macrame and many more.
