Whimsical & Waste-Free: A Mindful Journaling Workshop

Sat 17 Oct 1pm - 3pm

Talk Shop, Caption by Hyatt Central Sydney, Sydney

Join me for a slow, hands-on spring afternoon exploring mindful journaling, the kind that turns a blank page from something intimidating into something fun. We'll be working with paper offcuts, recycled bits and pieces, and eco-friendly ephemera to build whimsical journal layouts you'll actually want to look back on.

If you've ever stared at a blank journal page and closed it again without writing a thing, this one's for you. No previous art experience needed, just come as you are.

What We Will Explore:

โœ๏ธ Beginner-Friendly Doodles: Simple hand-doodling techniques anyone can pick up, think little tulips, daisies, and budding branches

๐ŸŽ€ Washi Tape Layering: Foolproof ways to layer tape and texture so your page looks finished, no design experience needed

๐Ÿ“ Guided Prompt Cards: Easy-to-follow prompts to help you fill the page and build a little sustainable memory log of your own

Whatโ€™s Included?

Your ticket includes a curated Journaling Kit to use during the session and a few things to keep:

๐Ÿ“” A Journal: A fresh travel-size notebook to start your journaling journey.

๐ŸŒฟ Spring Themed Journal Kit: A hand-picked mix of themed paper offcuts, washi tape, and prompt cards.

๐ŸŽ€ 10% Pop-Up Discount: A special thank you discount ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿป to use at my mini pop-up shop on the day. Perfect for grabbing extra stickers or keyrings!

No Journaling Experience Needed

We embrace the mess here! The goal is always presence, never perfection (^_^)

Bring Along Activity (optional)

Got stationery, paper goods, washi tape, notebooks, or bookmarks sitting unused at home? Bring up to 3 items to swap on our table, a little spring clean for your paper stash, and take home something someone else has loved and let go of. No obligation, just a fun way to give it a second life.

Browse the Pop-Up Shop

Iโ€™ll also be setting up a mini pop-up shop featuring a wider range of Swallow Wind Art paper goodies. If you want to add more to your journal or find a gift, you'll find a curated selection of:
