About this Event

Details

Hi everyone!
We are the one and only Decoden workshop experience in the whole of the Netherlands!

Decoden is a Japanese art form where you decorate objects with colourful cream glue and cute gems and charms.
Decoden is a short form of "Decorate DenWa" which means decorate mobile phone.

Typically phone cases are elaborately covered with thick colorful cream glues to look like whipped cream / cake icing and then embellished with cute charms, gems and jewels and finished with colourful sprinkle and glitter.

You can do decoden on any object you like and we will offer 4 options.
