If you're searching for a great school holiday activity for a creatively-minded child, this Sydney workshop provides hands-on messy fun that you don't have to clean up!
Join us for an exciting and creative screen printing workshop designed especially for kids aged 8 to 12! This full-day workshop is perfect for young artists who love to explore new techniques and create their own unique designs.
Guided by experienced instructors, kids will dive into the colourful world of screen printing. They’ll start by learning the basics of stencil design, with the opportunity to create their own stencils or choose from pre-made templates. With safety in mind, we’ll guide them through the process of cutting out their designs and preparing them for printing.
Throughout the day, kids will practise screen printing techniques, experimenting with colours and patterns on scrap fabric before moving on to their final project. They can choose to print their own tote bag or cushion cover. Each child will leave with a one-of-a-kind creation they will be proud to say was "Made By Me!"
Our structured approach ensures that every participant can express their creativity while staying within manageable boundaries, helping to build confidence and skills. With plenty of breaks for snacks, lunch, and a bit of fun, this workshop is both engaging and educational.
If you wish to send a plain t-shirt along with your child, they can also have a go at printing this. We don't supply t-shirts due to the variety in sizes. Natural fibres print best, and it is a good idea to prewash for best results.
We believe craft is as much about creativity as it is about connection, so in our workshops, your child will have the opportunity to meet new friends and enjoy learning some new skills away from their screens. Kids will learn new skills they can apply to future fun projects outside of class.
Please note:
  • Class sizes are always kept small so that they enjoy hands-on assistance while they learn and create.
  • Our space is secure and not open to people who have not booked into a workshop.
  • All teachers have a valid Working with Children Check that can be shown upon request.
  • Parents need to drop off children in person and complete the admission and release form.
Cancellation policy:
Due to the limited number of spaces in our workshops, all bookings are final and strictly non-refundable. You can reschedule your class with up to 7 days' notice. Bookings that are rescheduled with less than 7 days' notice will incur a $50 rescheduling fee. Rescheduling with less than 24 hours' notice will result in a cancellation without the possibility of a refund. If future workshop dates or times are not suitable, you can use the value of your booking toward another workshop, but we ask that you rebook within 6 months of your original booking.
You are welcome to send someone else in your place if you can't make it on the day. We reserve the right to cancel classes if minimum numbers are not met, in which case we will offer to reschedule or a full refund. Please note it is not our intention to cancel any school holiday workshops as we know it can be difficult to find alternative care at short notice (please tell your friends!)

Made by Me Workshop is about helping people to connect with their "inner creative" and have some fun while making beautiful things from quality materials in our friendly & vibrant studio space in the heart of the inner west!
Established in 2017 after Rebecca Doyle decided to take a career break and chose to revisit her childhood love for arts & crafts. Rebecca grew up in a large family where money was tight, after school activities where mostly homegrown and usually involved a sheet of cardboard, a glue stick and some glitter! It is probably no surprise to learn that Rebecca followed a creative path to study Fashion & Textile Design at University!
After a few more decades (than Rebecca will publicly admit to) and a long and varied career in the fashion industry, Rebecca wanted to get back to creating beautiful, one-of-a-kind objects - Made By Me Workshop is the result of where this path led.
Rebecca loves that moment of pride that comes over each participant's face when they look at what they have created and say to themselves "Wow - I made this & I love it!"
Made by Me Workshop run a variety of creative workshops, hen’s parties, private parties and corporate events from their warehouse space in St Peters including Resin Art, Resin Jewellery & Mould Making, Soap Making, Terrazzo Homewares, Punch Needle, Macrame and many more.
