St Leonards Coastal Studio

Crafting Workshops with Katy McLeod

In collaboration with Katy McLeod Creations, we host intimate, mindful crafting workshops by the coast in St Leonards, celebrating tactile arts, slow living, and organic materials.

Current Workshop

Coiled Basket Weaving Workshop

Discover the rhythmic, grounding tradition of coiled basketry. Under Katy McLeod's gentle guidance, you will master foundation coiling, wrapping stitches, and structural shaping using organic raffia and natural fibers to craft your own sculptural woven bowl.

All materials are provided, botanical refreshments, and morning / afternoon tea is available in our peaceful St Leonards cafe, Salty Cow. Suitable for complete beginners and seasoned makers alike.

Boho Raffia Sculpture Workshop

Come along, get creative and enjoy some time just for you as you make your very own beautiful boho raffia sculpture!

Using natural raffia and simple weaving techniques, you'll create a gorgeous coastal-inspired piece to take home, with all materials supplied and no experience needed.

Hand-roll traditional natural incense cones and sticks using raw, crushed resin, Balinese powder and essential oils to create your very own aromatic blend.

You will also create your own unique incense holder.

Join us for a relaxing and creative workshop where you'll handcraft your own beautiful Mala Bead Necklace, traditionally used for meditation, mindfulness and setting intentions.

Discover the meaning behind these sacred beads while enjoying a peaceful, hands-on experience, creating something meaningful and uniquely yours to take home.
