Bored at Home? Try DIY Embroidery Kits

Bored at Home? Try DIY Embroidery Kits


By Annie Symmonds

Finding fun things to do at home just got so much easier! Our textiles classes and DIY embroidery kits are perfect for anyone looking for creative things to do at home, or for anyone looking to try something a bit different. Plus! The practical skills you’ll learn from taking an online embroidery class will help you in the long run fix your clothes and become a whizz on the sewing machine.

After spending more time at home than usual this year thanks to being in lockdown in Australia, we don’t want you to feel lethargic by spending too much time sitting on the sofa scrolling through your phone.

Instead, improve your health and wellness by learning a brand new skill you might actually really love. Our online embroidery classes and DIY embroidery kits will teach you how to use a sewing machine properly, repair and recycle your clothes, learn how to make beautiful punch needle designs and so much more! If you’ve ever wanted to learn even the basics like how to sew on a button, now is the perfect time to learn whilst in the comfort of your own home.

Improve your health and wellness

Whilst we’re all about helping you find new indoors activities, our online classes and DIY art kits are designed to help you bring out your creative side. Although we might be too busy to stop and spend time actually enjoying doing the things we really love, we often push our health and wellness to the side. As mental health is becoming more widely talked about in recent times, it’s more beneficial than ever to take some time out for yourself.

While our DIY embroidery kits are a beautifully calming and meditative experience, they make it easy to zone out and let you spend time regaining part of your identity which may have been lost over time. When we take time to enjoy doing things we enjoy, it can lead to becoming happier, more positive and will help you build stronger relationships with people who truly matter in your life.

And while our online classes help ignite a spark within, we hope they continue on as a new passion or hobby. As people are looking to improve their mental health, it’s no wonder hobbies are on the rise at the moment. Due to popular demand, you’ll find plenty of DIY embroidery classes to choose from, so we’ll share some below to give you inspiration for which will suit you best.

Get to know your sewing machine

Understanding how to use a sewing machine is a lot trickier than it looks. Whether you have a genuine interest in sewing your own clothes or need to sew in children’s name tags in their school uniform, we’re here to help you learn how to do it effectively to save time on doing more important things.

We know many mums and dads are so busy, they don’t have a lot of time to repair their kid's clothing, so we want to make life easier for you. If you feel a bit intimidated at the thought of learning to sew in front of other people, our DIY embroidery kits are perfect for you to learn right at home instead. You won’t need to worry about anyone watching over you or feeling like you should know how to sew already.

Our local Australian makers and teachers go out of their way to make sure everyone feels comfortable in their online embroidery classes. They continue to make them a fun and engaging embroidery workshop that you’ll almost feel like you could be there in person! If you prefer, you can also book a private one on one live-streaming sewing class so you can get stuck into learning any specific details about sewing and of course be able to ask the teacher as many questions as you like.

Learn how to mend your clothes

Forget about having a sewing machine and learn how to mend and upcycle your clothes in this fun virtual embroidery class for beginners. Everyone must have been to a tailor to fix their clothes at some point, but imagine the satisfaction you’d feel if you could repair them yourself? Whether you need to sew on zips, hems or even take clothes in, you’ll be able to transform your entire wardrobe, simply from our DIY embroidery kits.

You’ll be able to save so much money on having to buy new clothes or going to the tailors anymore once you’ve learnt the art of hand stitching, repairing and even learning how to dye your clothes different colours. The list of new skills you’ll learn in this online embroidery class are endless!

Build stronger relationships with friends and family

2020 taught us all to spend more time with the people we love. Although you might not live nearby to some of the most important people in your life, we’re here to help you build stronger relationships. Our DIY embroidery classes are available for everyone in Australia, regardless of where you live.

If you have family members or friends you haven’t seen for a while because they live interstate, reconnect and join our online embroidery classes together. Although you won’t be in the same room, you’ll be able to create memories of learning a new skill together and will look back on the item you created from the class with loving memories.

How do our DIY embroidery kits work?

If you’re new to online classes and DIY art kits, it’s much easier than you think to get involved. Simply choose the right virtual embroidery class for you and we’ll do the rest. Our local Australian makers and teachers will then pack a beautiful craft box which will be delivered to your front door before the class begins. Inside you’ll find a gorgeous DIY embroidery kit which will include all of the tools and materials you would have been given if you attended it in person.

Once you’ve set up your little DIY embroidery workshop whether it’s on your dining table or in your favourite armchair around the coffee table, you’ll simply need to log onto Zoom to find the teacher ready to teach a fun and engaging class. It’s as simple as that.

We hope by sharing some of our DIY embroidery kits and online classes might inspire you to improve your quality of life or give as a gift for a special person you love.
