About Arts & Crafts Workshops
Why I Love What We Do
Art isn't just for artists - I see it as a way for anyone to switch off, chill, and try something new. With 22 years behind us, we’ve created a space where you don’t have to know anything before starting. Nobody’s judging, and mistakes are part of the fun.
Who Can Join
- Total newbies (never touched a brush? You’re perfect)
- Folks wanting to try a new hobby
- Groups (family, friends, even awkward office teams)
- Anyone who just wants a break from the usual chaos
What Happens Here
- Step-by-step help: I don’t throw you in the deep end
- All supplies sorted - you show up, we handle the rest
- You always end up with something you made, even if you think you “can’t do art”
- Honestly, sometimes it’s less about the art and more about just zoning out and feeling calm
What You’ll Try
- Indian folk art workshop styles like Lippan and Kerala Mural
- Painting on anything - denim, totes, glass, terracotta, even coffee!
- Resin art for beginners (think shiny jewelry or little home decor things)
- Texture painting, decoupage, origami, collage, and 3D calligraphy

My Story
We’re Shades Creative Learning, right here in Koramangala. Started this because, honestly, everyone’s got a bit of creativity inside - some just need a nudge. Life’s fast, so we wanted a spot where you can slow down, paint, and forget the chaos for a bit. Seeing folks - from busy techies to tiny tots - smile after finishing their first piece? That’s the best part. We’re less about rules, more about letting you find your own style. It’s not just art, it’s therapy. Come, join our little tribe.
