Make your presents stand out under the tree this Christmas with wrapping paper that’s uniquely yours.
Join us at Sugar House Island for Ink the Season, a hands-on festive workshop where you’ll carve your own rubber stamps and create personalised wrapping paper to give your gifts a thoughtful, handmade touch.
Guided by an expert host, you’ll learn how to transform a rubber block into a reusable festive stamp, from sketching your own design to carving your motif and experimenting with seasonal inks in festive red, green and black. You’ll then use your designs to print your own wrapping paper, creating unique patterns that bring a little extra personality to your presents.
Want to put your new creations to use straight away? Bring a small present from home and wrap it on the night using your custom-printed paper and eco-friendly tape.

- A guided, two-hour rubber-carving and block-printing workshop.
- A safety introduction, tool demonstrations and step-by-step guidance throughout.
