Creative afternoon in Rotterdam

A little moment just for yourself

This one is for busy women and moms who need a little moment just for themselves.

Want to get into the Christmas spirit without adding another stressful thing to your to-do list? Come spend a cosy afternoon slowing down, putting your phone away, and making something festive and beautiful with your own hands.

Everyone gets templates, so nobody has to start from scratch, and I guide you through every step.

You'll leave with a little stack of handmade cards, ready to send to someone you love.

How the two hours go

Slow, festive and completely yours

1

Hot chocolate first

Candles lit, a warm cup in your hands and sweet treats on the table. Your place is already set with high quality paper, paints and pens.

2

Trace and ink

We start with simple tracing from the templates and a fine ink line, so nobody has to face a blank page.

3

A little watercolour magic

I'll guide you step by step through a few magical watercolour techniques, with plenty of room to make each card your own.

4

Take your little stack home

Up to five finished Christmas cards, ready to write and send to the people you love.

A peek inside

The cosy table waiting for you

Candles, colour, warm drinks and the cards everyone took home.

What people say afterwards

“
I really enjoyed the workshop you prepared. I love the details, like the printed illustration on how to make the palette of colors, and the surprise souvenir gift. It was a relaxing and warm environment and you showed us very practical tips and how to make the most of our creation. I would totally recommend it.

Amazing crafty workshop from Gabriela! The quality of the material was excellent, explanation brochure was perfect, and the snacks were a nice touch! But most importantly she nicely guided the workshop and the atmosphere was absolutely relaxing! Definitely recommended!!!
