The Mag Studio Makes: A Creative Gift-Wrapping Workshop
Transform recycled magazines into beautifully wrapped gifts inside the North East’s specialist magazine store.
Step inside The Mag Room at Unique Magazines and explore a carefully curated collection of magazines from around the world, a space built for discovery and a celebration of all things print.
Lose yourself in the world of magazines and join us for a relaxed evening where gift wrapping and print come together to create something beautiful to gift, keep, or simply enjoy making.
Hosted inside The Mag Studio, our intimate in-house creative space set within our print haven in Swalwell, this experience is designed to help you slow down, switch off from the noise of everyday life and reconnect with something physical and hands-on.
With a small group setting, relaxed atmosphere and shared experience, the evening is just as much about conversation, community and discovery as it is the craft itself.
For this edition of The Mag Studio Makes, we are collaborating with Forbes Finishings and welcoming Aoife into the studio to share her passion and knowledge for beautiful gift wrapping using recycled magazines and print materials.
Throughout the evening, Aoife will demonstrate wrapping techniques, styling ideas and finishing touches before guiding you through creating your own beautifully wrapped gift.
Because sometimes the art is in the wrapping, not just the gift.
