WHAT TO EXPECT
This isn’t just a class — it’s an experience. Step into our bright tufting studio and prepare to turn your design idea into something real.
We’ll guide you through every step — from design projection to trimming the final fibers — until your artwork is fully complete and ready to take home.
WORKSHOP FLOW
1. Getting Ready Before Your Visit
Feel free to bring your favorite food and drinks — creativity pairs well with good energy!
Before you arrive, choose or prepare the image you’d like to tuft. Need inspiration? Explore our design library and pick from a collection of beginner-friendly templates.
2. Design Projection
Turn your vision into reality using our digital projector. Simply connect your phone, project your chosen image onto the canvas, and trace it effortlessly.
No drawing experience? No problem — the projector ensures perfect proportions and clean outlines every time.
3. Guided Practice
We’ll show you how to handle the tufting gun, feed the yarn smoothly, and control your movement.
You’ll have a short hands-on practice session before starting your actual piece, so you can feel comfortable and confident.
4. Tufting Time
Now the fun begins! Choose from over 100 vibrant yarn colors and start tufting your custom rug or wall art.
Our friendly instructors will be nearby to guide you with technique, color layering, and any little adjustments you might need.
5. The Finishing Touch
We go beyond tufting — we help you complete your piece from start to finish.
You’ll learn how to trim, glue, back, and shave your rug for a clean, professional look.
By the end of your session, you’ll leave with a fully finished, gallery-ready piece that’s 100% your own creation.

Recent reviews of Tufting Workshop

  • 5/5 from Leslie Chao, attended Oct 2026: My friends and I had a great time at this class! The instructor was very patient and helpful and it was a fun way to make art.
  • 5/5 from Kris Chiongbian, attended Sep 2025: Sweet, helpful and knowledgeable teacher.
  • 5/5 from Lauren Abria, attended Jun 2025: The rug tufting class was so fun! I booked a private class for a work event and everyone loved it. The instructors were all so helpful and nice. Would definitely go back!
  • 5/5 from Jade Chen, attended May 2025: Had an amazing time! Our teacher was incredibly nice, patient, and helpful! We had so much fun and recommended this tufting workshop to a bunch of friends!
  • 5/5 from Sharon Heu, attended May 2025: Teacher was very helpful and clearly wanted our work to come out nicely. She even stayed 2 hours later than the session end time.
  • 5/5 from Taylor Harrison, attended Apr 2025: I had a great time! My rug turned out fantastic and I loved the setup. My suggestion for other first timers is to make sure to put your lines close together! This wasn’t made super clear during instruction so I had to redo some of them haha but truly wonderful experience and will be doing it again!
  • 4/5 from Sabrina de Ro, attended Apr 2025: My teacher (her name was Macy) was really nice, we had some good talks too. She was there when I needed help and gave me as much time as I needed to finish up my project. Even though it was my first time doing it and at the beginning it seemed hard it really got better over time. The only thing in my opinion they could improve is to provide some drinks or snacks since you are going to be there for several hours. I can only recommend this place if you are looking for a fun new experience and a beautiful selfcrafted rug to take home.
  • 5/5 from Sarah Syndulla, attended Mar 2025: It was a great orientation to using the equipment correctly.
  • 5/5 from Kelsey Lam, attended Feb 2025: Our teacher Monica was very helpful, it was fun, and our rugs turned out better than we'd thought we would be capable of!
  • 5/5 from Lacie Murphy, attended Jan 2025: The class was fun but hard! I recommend starting with a small project and planning to spend 5-7 hours the first time. Bring water, lunch, and snacks! It's hard on the hands and shoulders after awhile. If you don't want to freestyle the design, they have equipment to project digital images and artwork off your phone to make transferring the image easier. I was impressed with the studio layout, yarn selection, and quality of tools. The instructors (Maisi and David) were very knowledgeable and helpful. Parking was easy on the weekend.
  • 5/5 from Tiona Thomas, attended Jan 2025: Great class! The lesson teaching how to work the gun easy to understand and the instructor even allowed us to practice before getting started. Love how both instructors also consistently check on our progress and helped us get the best look for our rugs.
  • 5/5 from Kenna Seagrist, attended Jan 2025: Our instructor, David, was amazing! Super knowledgeable, patient and engaging. I booked the class for four of us and he ensured we had all the support we needed and left with really awesome projects. Can't recommend enough! Very beginner friendly.
  • 5/5 from Audrey Musni, attended Dec 2024: We had a great time. Thank you!
  • 5/5 from Jason Chen, attended Dec 2024: very helpful
  • 5/5 from Gabby Lau, attended Dec 2024: This class was so fun! We came as a team bonding activity for work! Each of us picked our own design, and the staff were so helpful in getting us set up quickly! The staff and teachers were so kind and helped us work on our technique and also gave us tips and tricks to make a smoother rug. I'll definitely be coming back with more friends!
  • 5/5 from Flaurencya Ciputra, attended Nov 2024: They were so friendly and supportive! Excellent selection of colors
  • 5/5 from Andreas Sistena-Hessellund, attended Nov 2024: Extremely kind and educational. Gave us ample time to practice and start our project! There was an abundance of colors to choose from and even though I am terrible with artsy things my carpet came out amazing!
