2 hours of inspired art & making for ages 5+

Bespoke art fun, age appropriate and fully engaging!

We start with badge making - an instant take home - and move on from there. Chose ONE from the below:

  • Children's hands assembling a cardboard dollhouse model with furniture and decorations on a yellow table, surrounded by crafting materials like scissors, glue, and fabric scraps.

    Small Rooms

    An empty box each and a table full of materials. Cool melt glue guns, wallpaper, floorings and all sorts of small bits to create with.

    Best for ages 7+

  • Child painting a pink unicorn-shaped pillow with colorful swirls on a green table.

    Cushion Painting

    We can make cushions in any simple shape - unicorns are often a winner. Watercolours, ribbons and sparkles make each one unique.

    Best for ages 7+

  • Close-up of hands painting a wand with a fine brush on a green surface, next to a paint palette with various colors.

    Wands

    As many or as few as you like… Magic. Glue gun station, plasticine, wire, beads and all sorts of wrappable stuff.

    Best for ages 7+

  • Collage of people making and playing with colorful slime in various stages.

    Slime

    2 different types of slime to take home. Always such a winner when my long perfected recipe comes together to produce slime!

    Best for ages 5+

  • Children's art activity table with markers, paint, and artwork

    Tote bag decoration

    Fabric pens, pastels and paints plus, stencils. Two sides to design and decorate - letters, a slogan or an abstract colours.

Testimonials

“Absolutely brilliant! A perfectly wholesome, fun, chilled out party. If you have a kid who prefers getting lost in craft rather than tearing-up a jungle gym… this is for you.”
