What it’s like
A craft studio where a party group picks one project, from flower crowns to candle painting, and takes it home at the end.
This is a party venue built entirely around one craft session. You pick a project rather than a mix of activities, so the choice does the deciding for you: faux flower crowns, a canvas painting, a cowboy hat customisation, charm necklaces, block printed tote bags. Whatever you go for, everyone in the group makes the same thing and leaves with it, which is a nice change from party bags full of stuff that gets binned by Tuesday.
Sessions run 1 to 2 hours depending on the craft. The tote bag printing is the quick one at an hour, while the pressed dried flowers tray and the decorative tray painting stretch to two, which matters if you've got a group that loses focus fast. Prices start at £28 a head and go up to £36 for the longer, fiddlier projects like the pressed flowers, so it's worth matching the craft to how patient your group actually is rather than just picking the prettiest option on the list.
It's set up for parties and group bookings, with party rooms rather than a walk-in painting café feel, so this reads as a booked event rather than a drop-in afternoon. Hen parties and team building sessions get a mention alongside birthday parties, which tells you the rooms are built for a group activity rather than solo visits.
There's no age range given for any of the crafts.

Plan your visit
How much does it cost?
It runs from £28 to £36 per person depending on the craft. Candle painting and coaster or trinket dish painting are among the cheaper options at £28, while the pressed dried flowers tray is £36.
How long does a session last?
Between 1 and 2 hours depending on the project. Block printed tote bags are the shortest at an hour, canvas painting and the pressed flowers tray run to two hours.
Can we book a birthday party there?
Yes, birthday parties are one of the main things they set up for, alongside hen parties and team building sessions.
What do you actually make?
You pick one craft for the whole group: flower crowns, canvas painting, candle painting, cowboy hat customisation, charm necklaces, resin candle holders, painted plant pots, tote bags, hoop earrings or trays.
Is it suitable for young children?
There's no age guidance given for any of the crafts, so you'll need to judge for yourself whether fiddly work like charm necklaces or resin candle holders suits your kids.
Do we all make the same thing?
Each party books into one craft activity and everyone in the group makes that item, rather than choosing separately on the day.
Is this a walk-in studio or do we need to book ahead?
It's set up around booked parties and group sessions in party rooms rather than casual drop-in visits.
Which craft is best for a bigger group with short attention spans?
The one-hour block printed tote bag session is the quickest option if you want something that won't drag for a fidgety group.
