About this Event

Life is too short for boring clothes.

Bring something you’d love to customize and transform it into a one-of-a-kind piece that nobody else on Earth owns. Whether it’s a denim jacket, concert tee, canvas shoes, tote bag, bandana, jeans, pillowcase, apron, curtain, or another fabric item, this workshop is your chance to turn everyday fabric into personal artwork.

No artistic experience? No problem.

Whether you’re a confident creator or someone who hasn’t picked up a paintbrush in years, this workshop is designed for all skill levels. Freehand artists can create from scratch, while stencils, templates, examples, and an Inspiration Station help spark ideas and build confidence.

Yarn Rambo provides the paints, brushes, tools, stencils, workspace, and creative support. You bring the item you’d like to customize.

OPEN STUDIO FORMAT

Most attendees complete their project within 1–3 hours. You’re welcome to arrive anytime during the workshop window, but please allow enough time to complete your project before closing.
