Craft your own Amsterdam souvenir in a beautiful 19th-century canal house on the Prinsengracht. During this relaxed and creative 2-hour workshop, you will design and decorate your own decorative oyster shell using techniques such as decoupage, hand-painting, detailing, and optional epoxy finishing.
Choose from a wide range of prints inspired by Delft blue, tulips, windmills, canal houses, and various animal and sea-life designs. Add soft color washes, metallic details, or a glossy epoxy layer for an extra luxurious finish. No experience is required — your host guides you through every step at your own pace.
The workshop includes drinks and snacks to enjoy while you create.
By the end, you’ll leave with a beautifully crafted oyster artwork — a unique, handmade keepsake of your time in Amsterdam or a thoughtful gift for someone special. The studio is located near the Anne Frank House and Noordermarkt at Prinsengracht 64.
