If Meghan Can, So Can You
Through thoughtful curation, storytelling, and connection, Baby Steps celebrated the power of supporting small local businesses and embracing progress over perfection in sustainable living.
You don’t need to be the Duchess of Sussex, living in a picture-perfect home, to connect, create, and enjoy life to the fullest. All it takes is a cosy room, a couple of glasses, a few nibbles, a spark of curiosity, and a talented friend ready to teach you something new.

Candle Making Workshop
3rd of December 2025, Wednesday, 19:00-20:30
Create your own winter candle in the cosiest setting imaginable.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the basics of candle making, wicking, melting, scent blending and pouring, while sipping, chatting and settling into the warmth of the room.
Choose a vessel you love (bring one from home or select from ours), craft your own scent, and personalise it with a name, label or ribbon. No experience needed, just curiosity and a desire to make something beautiful with your hands.
You’ll leave with a handcrafted candle ready to light, gift or save for a slow January evening.
Handcrafted Cards Workshop
6th of December 2025, Saturday, 16:00-17:30
Nothing says “I appreciate you” like a card you’ve made yourself.
In this workshop, you’ll explore simple calligraphy strokes, lettering styles and thoughtful design techniques to create personalised cards for loved ones, or for future you.
We’ll play with recycled card stock, stamps, tapes, gold pens, textures and tiny embellishments that turn a paper moment into a keepsake.
No artistic background required, imperfections are encouraged and adored.
Leave with a small collection of handwritten cards that feel sincere, elegant and deeply you.
Gingerbread Decorating & Gift Box Making
10th of December 2025, Wednesday, 19:00-20:30
A workshop that tastes as good as it looks. We’ll decorate gingerbread men, using royal icing, sprinkles and personality-filled details, the fun, messy, joyful kind of creativity.
Then, we’ll shift into packaging and presentation, learning how to line, box, wrap and ribbon your creations into thoughtful edible gifts.
Perfect for hosts, colleagues, neighbours or your own midnight snack stash.
You’ll leave with beautifully wrapped gingerbread gifts and the confidence to recreate them anytime.
Felt Ornament Workshop
13th of December 2025, Saturday, 16:00-17:30
Soft, jolly and delightfully nostalgic, this workshop is pure comfort. Together, we’ll create simple festive felt ornaments using wool felt, thread, stuffing and a few beginner-friendly stitches. Stars, hearts, mittens, trees… you choose the shapes that speak to you.
This is a calming, tactile craft that invites conversation, laughter and daydreaming, perfect for unwinding after a long week.
You’ll head home with 2–3 handmade ornaments, ready to hang, gift or treasure for years to come.
