There’s nothing quite like creating pieces with homespun charm.

Think about handpicking your favorite blooms, their fragrance lingering in the air, and neatly affixing them to create a floral crown, or creating an essential oil perfume as a rejuvenating addition to your olfactory wardrobe.

Modern arts company Turquoise Boutique Studio is creating immersive experiences for people with its creative selection of do-it-yourself event activities and kits, online tutorials, and workshops.

The idea is to bring families and friends together and engaging them in creative activities that enhance collective happiness and well-being. “Here in Dubai, it can be difficult to find the right quality materials at a reasonable price. There was a lot of work to get to the creative process – the fun bit,” founder of Turquoise, Meredith Huston says. 

“I found out that I enjoyed the hunt for resources and could quickly learn projects, so I started inviting friends over for crafty evenings. We had so much fun that I realized there was a demand for this kind of activity, even for adults.”

Turquoise’s DIY projects range from jewelry-making to interior décor with macramé wall hangings, bracelets and plant hangers being among crowd-favorites. This spring, it might be time to leave your phones at home and get crafty.
