Can't make it to a class?
Learn the same technique at home with the 3-Hole Pamphlet Stitch Video Tutorial, a 25-minute detailed video that walks you through the process taught in these workshops, plus a bonus ephemera printable.
In person workshops
Hands-on, creative time with like-minded paper lovers! Classes provide a relaxed, approachable experience in paper arts. All skill levels welcome!
Class sizes are usually fairly small, between 8-12 people. We start with an overview of the project, and then dive in and start playing with materials! At the end, I love making time for everyone to share their projects. I find it’s a heartwarming and inspiring way to end the evening that often leads to discovering common threads in creating and also new techniques!
Interested in seeing a workshop in a particular town or venue? Suggestions for new locations are always welcome!
Private events
Let me come to you! This started with a bachelorette party, where the organizer reached out asking if I could do a themed one-stitch, junk journal event. She gave me ideas like florals, ocean vibes, girlfriends, and a fun inside joke - goats!
Materials can be customized to match specific requests, making each event unique and personal.
This type of journal event is perfect for birthdays, bachelorette parties, team building, or any gathering looking for a beginner friendly, unique, and creative experience.
