Valentine's Day Rug Making Beginner Workshop: Feb 14th

A One-Day Tufting Experience for Two

Celebrate Valentine’s Day with a hands-on, creative date night! This special edition of Zing’s beginner-friendly rug-making workshop is designed just for couples. You and your partner will work together to tuft your own custom 24” x 24” rug, a playful, collaborative keepsake you’ll cherish long after the holiday.

Whether you’re total beginners or seasoned crafters, Isabella Carapella of Zing will guide you through the full tufting process in a relaxed, fun environment. Enjoy complimentary chocolate and champagne while you learn, create, and make something totally unique together.

In this one-day, 4–5 hour workshop, you and your partner will:

• Learn the basics of using a cut-pile tufting gun
• Set up your tabletop frame
• Thread and operate the gun
• Maneuver your design and tuft your full rug
• Get hands-on tips, tricks, and techniques from an experienced instructor

After class, Isabella will finish the rug for you, gluing, backing, sculpting, and shaving, so it looks polished and professional. Finished rugs will be available for pick-up or can be shipped directly to you.

Once you sign up Bella will reach out to you about either uploading a JPG of your own three-color rug design, or select from a curated set of premade designs at the workshop.

• All materials and equipment
• One rug made together as a couple
• Chocolate + champagne during the workshop
• Professional finishing of your rug after the class
• Optional add-ons to take home your own tufting gun or tufting kit (Please allow at least 2 weeks for fulfillment of add-on orders.)

Limited to 5 couples to ensure plenty of 1:1 instruction.
