- Running an arts and crafts workshop is hard work, but well worth it! Here's a behind the scenes video on how I prepare, and the things I bring to a typical arts and crafts workshop for approximately 100 kids in NYC. PLUS, see a part of my room for the first time on CZcams! ;-)

You made my day. I'm an intern of an artist and she's overwhelming with the ideas of storing crafts supplies in a way to be transport easy and out of sight but easy to access. So, putting them in suitcases is a novel one.
Wow... that suitcase looks incredibly heavy. Props to you for running these workshops!
It's probably half my weight. 😂
Thanks! They're great fun, but a LOT of work. 😜I think I'm getting too old to schlep things around haha.
Sent you a pm. It seems like when I get messages, I do not get notifications.
I think it's wonderful that you can teach in a foreign language too. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Teresa! I try! There's a senior center here that I love: 50% Italian, 50% Chinese, so I jump between English and Chinese throughout the entire workshop. It's great fun haha.
You're well organized for your craft workshops. Thanks for sharing these storage solutions as well. Hope you have a great day!
Love this video
Wow so cool
Hello there saw your video and it was very informational and organize thank you for sharing one question how do you get clients for your workshops?
very well organized Jenny
So amazing! I am working on setting up a kids craft business at home here in Australia. I can learn so much from you. xx
I want to do the same. I'm in South Africa. Do you think parents want to to have experience?
Do you have any other videos on running and prepping for workshops? Great video thanks so much. Looking forward to watching your crafts tutorials.
Hi Sarah, Aww thanks so much for watching. Unfortunately I do not, should I? 😅
@@OrigamiTree Hello, thanks for replying! Your channel is already awesome, but I'd be super happy if you had a series about how to run a work shop in depth. This video got me very excited about starting and you taught it in a very fun way. I want to run art workshops for kids but struggle with organization and you look so organized and talented.
2:05 did she just say....
Shit 😂
Noooo I didn’t! 😂
I'll bet you could find a volunteer to sharpen the pencils at your events with the kids. As a teacher, I find kids usually love to have a "job" at fun events like this. I plan on leading some origami sessions this summer. Thanks for sharing the organizational ideas with us. I loved hearing about your work with the kids and seniors. Keep up the great work.
Hi Mikey,
Thanks so much! Hey, that's not such a bad idea haha! I used to have this one little helper who always offered to do everything, but then her and her family moved out of state. Unfortunately, most of these events take place at large venues in NYC where there is a "time limit" to how long you can stay. So if you're there from 12-3, for example, by 3pm, your suitcase better be entirely packed and you must be OUT...or security will come and get you, haha. So what ends up happening is I quickly toss everything in and roll away as quickly as possible to clean up at home. 😂😂
You are so sweet and patient to teach crafts to children and elderly! ☺💓🖍🖌 Wishing you have plenty of time and funding!
Thank you Jackie for your sweet words. 🥰 I love crafting with the kiddos and seniors. I wish for more time and funding too haha.
Cool.
Amazing! ❤️
bravo Enzo
Hello there :) I'm also planning on starting a scrapbooking boutique online and I was inspired by your content. I just wanted to know how do you customise orders according to the customer's wish? Like, how do you get their pictures and do you ask them specific questions and what not?
New subscriber!
How much do you charge for your sessions? Adults/kids
I've been searching for the pinwheel sticks and connectors but I can't seem to find them sold separately. May I ask where you got yours??
I get mine from Oriental Trading: www.orientaltrading.com/diy-pinwheels-48-pc--a2-13610916.fltr?categoryId=550216&rd=pinwheel
