Rug Making Experience Gifts
Take your rug making seriously with this two-session advanced tufting course – a comprehensive, skills-first experience designed to take you through the complete rug-making process from blank canvas to beautifully finished piece.
Spread across two three-hour sessions, the course builds your knowledge and confidence at every stage. On day one, you'll stretch and attach your tufting cloth to the frame, transfer your design onto the canvas, and get to grips with professional tufting techniques and machine control before beginning your rug in earnest. Day two is where everything comes together – you'll learn how to glue and secure the backing, master shaving and carving techniques for a clean, polished finish, and complete your piece using the methods professional tufters rely on.
You'll also receive a comprehensive tufting starter guide covering the tools, materials, and supplies you'll need to carry on making at home – so the skills you build here don't stay in the studio.
Choose the project size that suits you:
  • Small rug: 60 × 60 cm frame
  • Large rug: 90 × 90 cm frame
Whether you're a beginner who wants a thorough grounding in the craft or a hobbyist ready to level up your finishing techniques, you'll leave with a completed handmade rug and the knowledge to create independently from here.

Custom rug of a higher complexity and a comprehensive tufting starter guide.

The Story of Artventurous: From Rug Making to Connecting London Through Creativity
It all started as a hobby—rug making was my way of unwinding, experimenting with textures and colours. But what began as a personal passion soon turned into something more when friends started asking where they could get one of my rugs. I thought, “Why not turn this into a business?” So, I set up an online shop, and before I knew it, my rugs started gaining a following.
As my business grew, I realised I wanted to do more than just sell. I wanted to connect people. That’s when I opened my tufting studio and decided to call it Puns and Rugs—because, let's face it, I tuft funny phrases on my rugs! Picture stepping into a room and seeing a rug that says, “Dramatic Exit ->”. It’s all about blending creativity with humour, and who doesn’t love a good pun?
But it’s not just about rugs—I wanted to create a space where Londoners could come together and share in the joy of making things. That’s why I started offering workshops, from rug making to jewellery design and bag charm crafting. It’s about teaching skills, yes, but also about building connections and creating something meaningful together. It is Artventurous.
What most people don’t know is that I used to teach arts and crafts before launching my business. I enjoy helping people tap into their own creativity, whether it’s through rug making, jewellery crafting, or painting. There were definitely moments of doubt, but I kept going because I knew this journey was about more than just creating art—it was about bringing people together through creativity and laughter.
I’ve been honing my craft for several years now, and while I don’t have decades of experience, I’ve certainly learned a lot along the way. What started as a simple hobby quickly turned into a full-time business, and that hands-on experience has taught me more than any classroom could.
Our mission is simple: connect, create, and have fun. Whether you’re making a punny rug or designing a bag charm, there’s a place for you here. So, if you’re in London and want to try something new, come join me in the studio! Let’s create something special together.
