Get ready to tear, trim, glue, and stitch your way to two stunning paper-based artworks—no frame required!
In this fun, hands-on class, you’ll layer colour and pattern using decorative papers and all kinds of delightful scraps: think gift wrap, old book pages, maps, travel mementos, magazine clippings, and even kids’ drawings.
You’ll create two wall-ready pieces—one glued, one sewn—each with its own personality and charm.
Perfect for beginners and curious creatives alike, this workshop is all about playful exploration. The techniques are simple, the materials are inspiring, and the vibe is relaxed and fun. Come along and turn everyday paper into something beautiful you’ll be proud to hang on your wall.
