About

The Mindful Maker: Decorative Decoupage Dishes

Join us for a creative celebration of upcycling as we transform simple surfaces into stunning, functional art. In this workshop, you will learn the timeless art of decoupage—the craft of decorating an object by gluing paper cutouts onto it in combination with special paint effects and finishes.

Whether you are a seasoned crafter or a total beginner, you’ll find joy in the process of layering patterns and colors to breathe new life into repurposed materials. Tailor your creation to your lifestyle or a loved one’s personality by choosing one of the following:

  • The Trinket Dish: Create a delicate, decorative bowl perfect for holding jewelry, keys, or small treasures.
  • The Statement Plate: Design a full-sized dinner plate, ideal for holiday gatherings, special occasions, or adding a pop of personality to your next summer BBQ.

The Experience

  • Mindful Crafting: This session is designed to be a gentle, meditative experience. We focus on the tactile nature of the materials, allowing you to slow down and enjoy the flow of creative expression.
  • Wellness & Connection: Beyond the craft, this workshop is about coming together in a light, fun environment that supports your overall well-being.
  • Personalized Gifting: Both options make incredibly thoughtful, handmade gifts for friends and family (or a beautiful treat for yourself!).

All class supplies provided.

Classes at Thrifty Connections are intended for adults and suitable for individuals 16+.
