"Doing nothing is my favourite hobby."


2. Halla

"I'm not dramatic. You're just not dramatic enough."


3. Zigle

"I have no idea what's going on, but I love it!"


5. Danmoo

5. Danmoo

"I'm listening. Just not to you."


6. Pikler

Meet Pikler, our effortlessly cool character with a mysterious smile and a hairstyle that makes its own rules. Never in a rush, always doing things differently!

"I don't follow trends. I get lost on purpose."


Spend three creative hours bringing your favourite Cheeky Island character to life as a custom 40 x 40 cm tufted rug in this hands-on tufting workshop at Cheeky Studio in Hackney Wick, East London. It's made for beginners, so you don't need any tufting experience or drawing skills. Choose from the original Cheeky Island characters (Toma, Halla, Zigle, Dottie, Danmoo and Pikler, the playful residents of the island) and your design will be prepared on the canvas in advance. All you have to do is arrive, pick your colours and start tufting with confidence.
Each character has its own personality, and this special experience offers a collection of exclusive designs for £100 per person. Your friendly team stays close from start to finish, helping with technique, rethreading, colour changes and any tricky areas along the way. You'll use professional cut-pile tufting equipment and choose from over 115 colours of cheekyarn, the studio's own GRS-certified yarn made from 100% recycled material, for a soft, fluffy finish.
Every guest also gets a complimentary Sonic Tonics drink, so you can pick a flavour, settle in and sip while you tuft in the cosy studio.
Once the tufting is done, the team takes care of the final trimming, gluing, backing and shaping, so your piece feels like a proper rug you'll want to display at home. If you don't finish every part during the session, don't worry. They'll help complete the final details and arrange collection or delivery, so you still go home with a finished rug.
Here's what's included:
  • Your choice of exclusive Cheeky Island character
  • Your design traced and canvas-ready when you arrive
  • Close beginner guidance throughout the session
  • Professional tufting guns, frames and tools
  • 115 colours of recycled cheekyarn
  • Professional trimming, gluing, backing and shaping
  • Completion support if you need extra help finishing
  • A complimentary Sonic Tonics drink
It's a joyful choice for birthdays, dates, hen dos, solo creative days, gifts or team activities, and you'll leave with a one-of-a-kind keepsake in a clean, well-equipped studio. Pick your character, make your rug and join the island!
