About

Paint. Create. Unwind.

MerryMakers & Co. presents an afternoon inspired by Henri Matisse. Over two hours, you'll paint, personalise and add touches of gold leaf on your own two-piece sculptural cloud tray set, then take it home with you.

This is our Inaugural Creative Ritual. It's host-led, unhurried and built around creative play, endless grazing, a drink in hand and connection around the communal table. You don't need any art experience. If you can hold a brush, you're ready.

The Canvas

Your canvas is a pair of sculptural, stone-cast cloud trays. Organic in form, tactile in finish and intentionally left blank for you to make your own. Paint, personalise and finish each piece with your individual creative touch.

Once complete, they become functional little objects of art made for jewellery, keepsakes and the everyday rituals of home.

The Studio

We're at Art Department Studio in Woolloomooloo, a beautifully styled space made for gathering and making. Arrive, settle in, and let the afternoon unfold.

What's included

  • Your own two-piece sculptural cloud tray set to take home
  • All tools required including the paints, brushes, matisse cutouts, gold leaf and much more
  • Step-by-step guidance from your host
  • A generous grazing table
  • 2 drinks per person with Prosecco on the menu
  • A relaxed, small-group setting

This is for you if

  • You love beautiful spaces, design and making things with your hands
  • You'd like a creative afternoon with friends, or you're come solo and enjoy the communal vibe
