🌙 Find Calm. Create Beauty. Feel Free.

Join us in Ballarat on Tuesday, 12 May, from 6pm–8pm for a gentle evening of mosaic making designed to soothe your mind, spark your creativity, and give you a little space to breathe.

This beginner-friendly session is more than a class. It is a quiet creative pause — a moment carved out just for you.

No pressure.
No experience needed.
Just calm focus, soft conversation, and the simple joy of watching your mosaic coaster come to life piece by piece.

🧘♀️ A Mindful Evening of Making

This workshop is designed to help you slow down after the day and reconnect with the pleasure of creating something by hand.

You’ll be guided step by step as you choose colours, place tesserae, and build your coaster in a relaxed, supportive setting. The process is simple, soothing, and deeply satisfying — perfect for anyone who needs a break from the noise.

By the end of the evening, you’ll leave with more than a coaster.

You’ll leave with a little calm.
A little confidence.
A little magic you made yourself.

💛 Perfect For Self-Care, Friends & Creative Connection

This evening is ideal for:

  • a mindful self-care ritual
  • a relaxing night out in Ballarat
  • a meaningful creative date
  • a gentle activity with friends
  • beginners wanting to try mosaics
  • anyone craving calm, colour, and connection

With a maximum of 5 participants, the group stays small, friendly, and supportive. You’ll have space to ask questions, move at your own pace, and enjoy the process without feeling rushed.

🧩 What You’ll Make

You’ll create your own handmade mosaic coaster — a small but meaningful piece you can use, gift, or keep as a reminder of the evening you gave yourself permission to slow down.

Whether you choose something simple, colourful, symbolic, or playful, your coaster will carry the quiet satisfaction of being made by you.

🌿 Why You’ll Love This Workshop

Mosaic making naturally encourages you to slow down.

One piece at a time, your mind begins to settle. You notice colour. Shape. Texture. The small choices become grounding, and the finished piece becomes a reminder that creativity does not need to be complicated to be meaningful.

This is a workshop for relaxing, reconnecting, and gently finding your way back to your creative self.

Image Prompt:
