COLOR POP POUCH WORKSHOP — Design, Decorate & Make It Yours
Design it. Decorate it. Make it completely yours.
Ready for an afternoon of color, creativity, and a little retro fun?
Join us for Color Pop Pouch Workshop, a relaxed hands-on DIY experience where you'll transform a simple canvas pouch into a colorful accessory that feels completely your own.
Think bold colors, playful patches, cheerful shapes, colorful accents, pom-poms, charms, and plenty of room to experiment.
No complicated techniques. No pressure to make something “perfect.” Just pick the materials you love, sit down, create, and enjoy a laid-back afternoon with other people who are ready to make something fun.
Whether you come with friends or arrive solo, you'll have your own pouch to customize and a shared table full of materials to explore.
✨ What You'll Make
Each attendee will receive one blank canvas pouch ready to personalize.
Choose from an assortment of decorative materials such as:
- Colorful patches
- Fabric shapes
- Playful appliqués
- Decorative trims
- Pom-poms
- Tassels
- Charms
- Colorful cords
- Fabric-safe decorative elements
- Other seasonal craft accents
Mix, layer, arrange, and experiment until you've created something that's unmistakably yours.
Your finished pouch can be used for:
Makeup • Pens & pencils • Art supplies • Travel essentials • Stickers • Accessories • Everyday small items
And yes — you take your finished creation home.
🌈 No Crafting Experience Needed

The goal is to make something you actually enjoy.
