Bag Charm & Key Charm Making Workshop in Amsterdam

About this workshop

Hosted by @amsterdamdiyclub, this creative workshop is all about nostalgia, colour, and a little pre-Christmas magic. Happening on 20 December, it’s the perfect moment to slow down before the holidays and make a thoughtful, handmade gift for someone you love (or a cute keepsake for yourself).

Reconnect with the 2000s spirit and design your own Y2K-inspired bag charms and keychains. You’ll be guided step by step - from choosing your idea to assembling your charms using professional wire and jewellery tools. Learn how to make good-luck paracord knots and combine glass beads, semi-precious stones and unique charms to bring your accessory to life.

No experience needed! Just bring yourself (and maybe your best friend) and enjoy a few festive hours of chatting, sipping hot drinks and creating something uniquely you in a cosy attic studio overlooking the canals.

✔️ Step-by-step guidance in a small group
✔️ Unlimited tea & light snacks
