Standard Rug Tufting Workshop

Make your own rug!



3 hours Class size 1 to 2 guests    

  £95 - £120 (£95 for 1:1 experience; £120 for 2:1 experience) (PayPal Pay in 3 available)
In this creative workshop, you’ll be tufting your own design to make a rug or wall hanging, adding a pop of personality to your space.
We know it's not every day you’re picking up a tufting gun, so we don't expect perfection! This activity is all about having fun, getting creative and is completely beginner-friendly. It’s also well suited to those who don’t consider themselves artistically inclined.
As you get settled into a rhythm with the tufting machine, the session becomes a chance to switch off from daily life and enjoy a moment of mindfulness.
You’ll learn a unique skill, gain a memorable experience, and take home something handmade as a keepsake or as a thoughtful gift.
As with all our workshops, it’s important to us that you feel supported and encouraged to express your creativity. You’ll be guided throughout by an experienced instructor, rated at 4.9/5 stars on ClassBento.
Before the session, you’ll be sent material via email and encouraged to share your design. If you’re unsure on what to tuft, we have set designs that you can choose from pre workshop.

Trimming and shaving service included*
Come solo for a 1:1 session (40x40cm), or bring a friend or partner for a collaborative 2:1 session to work together on one larger rug (60x50cm).
As we are a small studio, we can accommodate up to three stations, so if you’re bringing someone along and they’d like to tuft their own rug, please book a single ticket each for the same day. Due to health and safety reasons, this workshop is only available to those 18+.
*To make the most of your experience, gluing, backing and shaving your rug will be completed after the workshop, as this process takes time. You’ll be able to collect your finished rug a few days later.

FAQ

Can I choose my own design?
Yes! You will be sent a document before your workshop date with designs to choose from. If you have a particular one you want to tuft, we can accommodate this too! Your design will be drawn onto the canvas prior to you workshop, so you can get tufting straight away!
Can we take out rug home the same day?
Unfortunately, the process of gluing, backing and shaving the rug takes up a lot of time. We won't have time to do this in the workshop, but you will get to pick it up a couple of days after.

These workshops provide a relaxed, welcoming environment, where you can explore creativity, develop new skills and craft unique projects under friendly and expert guidance. Whether you're learning how to create your first crochet or knit stitches, or refine your technique you can find something here.
What makes these workshops special is our laid back, mindful approach, with no pressure, no perfection, just creating at your own pace. This is reflected in our materials, as we only use natural fibres. Community is at the heart of all our events, so whether you are solo or with friends, you'll meet like-minded people.
