3h | $85

Make your own version of the viral Trader Joe’s bag—only better, because you designed it! In this hands-on class, you’ll learn how to carve your own reusable rubber stamp and print it onto a pint-sized canvas tote.

    • Learn step-by-step how to design and carve custom rubber blocks using simple tools and beginner-friendly techniques.

    • Explore how to build up patterns using basic geometric shapes and clever design tricks.

    • Get hands-on with brayers and textile ink to create a professional-looking print.

    • Learn how to heat-set your tote at home for lasting results, plus tips for care and re-use.

    Once you get the hang of rubber block carving, the possibilities are endless: cards, fabric, gift wrap, and more. But we’ll start by teaching you everything you need to know to create a one-of-a-kind mini tote, perfect for gifting—or keeping for yourself.

    You'll leave with your custom-carved stamps and a mini tote that’s ready to tell a story.
