Do you have visions for "one day" that you'd like to make progress on now?
Do you want to play big in 2026?
Are you eager to be intentional this year and focus on the things that matter most to you?
Well, that's what a vision board is all about! It's the perfect combination of crafty, hands-on joy AND goal-setting goodness. In this workshop, you'll gather with other vision board makers to create your own personal piece of intention-setting art. Your host, Eugenie, will bring questions and insights to help you get clear on the visions and desires you have for this year (and beyond), and we'll will have tons of crafty supplies, magazines, and anything else you'll need to create something meaningful.
All you need to do is start pondering what you'd LOVE to create, feel, or become in 2026. Dream big -- nothing is off limits.
What's the point of creating a vision board? Good question! Studies show that envisioning an outcome activates the same neural pathways as actually completing that outcome. So, creating a vision board is helping you build the muscles to follow through on the things you want to accomplish. Plus, it's advised to place your vision board somewhere where you can see it often, reinforcing your intentions on a daily basis and ensuring that you stay focused on the dreams that matter most to you.
How often do we get to the end of a year and realize we still haven't made much progress on That Thing we keep saying is so important to us? Well, with a vision board, you'll get frequent reminders so that you can prioritize the things that matter.
Plus, we'll also have natural wine and snacks for sale and a groovy playlist, so we can have a fun, crafty, and cozy intention setting evening with new friends. :)

Workshop: Jewelry Making

Do you still need a Christmas present for a loved one or want to treat yourself to something handmade and unique? Join us for our sustainable Jewelry Making Workshop.
What to expect:
We teach wax jewelry making: a hands-on process where you carve (and/or melt) your design from wax, which is then cast in silver or gold. You’ll be able to shape textures, forms, and ideas into a piece that’s completely your own.
At the end of the workshop, you’ll have a wax piece that’s organic, personal, and completely yours.
Skills you will learn:
• Carving
• Melting
• Filling
• Drilling
• Sawing
• Texturing
When your wax piece is complete, we take care of casting it into silver and giving it its final finish. This includes cutting the casting post, soldering any earring posts, filling, sanding, polishing, and protecting the piece. All of this is done in-house before it’s returned to its creator, you!
How do I receive my final piece?
When your piece is ready, you’ll receive an email notification.
Will my piece cost to make?
That’s entirely up to you!
During the workshop, you’ll weigh your wax piece and we’ll help you calculate an estimate based on the metal you choose. This gives you a first idea of the price. From there, we’ll let you know the final cost, including casting and our work to finish your piece.
Feel free to ask us anything , we’re here to help! <3
Abour your hosts: @OMIRA
We’re a small Lisbon collective created by Laura and Marie, two jewelers with a shared love for lost-wax jewelry. Together, we bring over 15 years of experience in silversmithing, craft, and art across the Netherlands, Germany, the US, India, and now Portugal. Along the way, we discovered the power of working side by side: slowing down, creating with our hands, and watching a space naturally turn into a place of peace and connection.
We realized how deeply people need spaces like these and how our craft allows everyone to be part of it. We love teaching and helping people connect with their creative side. Lost wax is wonderfully organic and intuitive, making it natural for anyone to uncover their own flow. The process is spontaneous, original, and inherently experimental, every piece ends up truly one of a kind.
Our workshops are relaxed and welcoming: an opportunity to follow your curiosity, lean into the unexpected, and shape something that could only come from you. Plus, we'll also have natural wine and snacks for sale and a groovy playlist, so we can have a fun, crafty, and cozy afternoon with new friends. :)
