DIY Craft Workshops: Hands-on Creative Sessions
Forget the canvas for a second. Come play with Jesmonite, custom tote bags, and textured art in a space that is all about messy hands and big laughs.
We love making birthdays extra special with creative fun. Here, kids are using stencils to paint their own custom tote bags, making cute shapes and patterns.

Matcha lattes and messy hands. We teamed up for a Jesmonite and Matcha Bar workshop, and it was a morning of slow, social, and creatively chaotic fun.
For the first time ever, we're bringing a Jesmonite workshop to our Bangalore studio. In this session, you'll make your own trinket tray and a planter to take home.

Even our team gets in on the fun. Here’s a mother and daughter from the Paint Bar team bonding over a Jesmonite session at our studio.
Hands full of Jesmonite and hearts full of joy. We hosted a lovely all-women workshop where they created their own trays and planters. The vibe was immaculate.
About this collection
When you join our Jesmonite sessions, keep in mind that the material needs about 20 to 30 minutes to cure while you enjoy your drinks and snacks. You will walk away with your custom tray or planter that same day, fully finished and ready to take home.
We believe art should be a party, not a stiff lesson. Our DIY workshops are perfect if you want to get creative without worrying about being a professional artist.
What we make
- Jesmonite Casting: This is where we get hands-on. You mix, pour, and create your own terrazzo-style trinket trays and planters. It is incredibly satisfying to watch the patterns emerge.
- Tote Bag Painting: Your bag, your rules. We provide stencils and paints so you can create a unique, wearable piece of art.
- Textured Art: Use palette knives and modeling paste to add depth and personality to your work.
The Vibe
Whether you are at our lake-facing studio in Bangalore or joining us at one of our partner cafes in Mumbai or Delhi, the atmosphere is the same. Expect good music, chill company, and a zero-judgment zone. Everything is beginner-friendly, and we provide all the supplies, from protective gear to your canvas or casting molds. You do not need to bring anything except your energy.
These sessions are great for solo dates, group hangouts, or just trying something new. We handle the setup and the cleanup, so you can focus on the fun. Come grab a drink, get a little messy, and make something you will actually use at home.
Paint Bar
We are the crew that turns art into a party. We ditch the stuffy studio vibe for messy hands and real laughter, whether you are pouring Jesmonite or painting your own tote bag.
