Event Description

A Hands-On Sticker and Magnet Making Workshop

Ever wanted to turn your art, ideas, or doodles into real, high-quality stickers and magnets? This sticker and magnet workshop will show you how to bring any idea to life step-by-step right inside our idea forge creators space.

In this sticker and magnet making workshop, we’ll guide you through the entire process from your first design concept to printing, cutting, and creating a finished product you can proudly take home. Whether you’re a total beginner or a crafty enthusiast looking to learn more, this session is packed with tools, techniques, and takeaways for all experience levels.

What You’ll Learn:

Design Basics:

Start with an image, logo, phrase, or sketch, yours or one we provide, and learn how to prepare it for printing and cutting. We’ll cover tools like GIMP and Photoshop, with step-by-step process on proper sizing, spacing, layout, and file setup so your design cuts clean and looks professional. We can even sneak in a little way to use Canva to get the job done too.

Materials Matter:

Learn the difference between glossy, matte, and waterproof vinyl; clear vs. white base materials; and how to choose the right magnet thickness and backing for your project. You’ll get to explore lamination options, including holographic finishes, and explore both manual and roller-based lamination techniques.

Cut It Your Way:

We’ll show you how to use both the Cricut and Brother ScanNCut machines and how to troubleshoot common issues. Want to go analog? We’ll also cover how to cut by hand effectively, so you leave with the skills to continue at home, even without fancy tools.

Take It Home:

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have created your own set of custom stickers and magnets, completely designed, printed, laminated, and cut by YOU.

Who Should Attend:

Artists, crafters, and DIY lovers

Students, educators, and youth leaders

Anyone curious about turning digital ideas into physical products

Small business owners interested in merchandise and branding

No prior experience required. All materials, tools, and guidance are included. Just bring your creativity, we’ll take care of the rest.
