Looking for a fun, hands-on way to spend an afternoon with friends or family?
Searching for something more memorable than just another lunch date or shopping trip?
Wanting to do something creative, but worried it’ll be too complicated or messy to pull off?
Our Vintage China Workshops make it simple and stress-free to turn a pile of pretty plates into a stunning cake stand you’ll actually use and treasure.
Most guests complete their stand in 30–45 minutes, but we invite you to relax and enjoy the experience for up to 2 hours while plates are drilled and assembled.
* We recommend reservations as we limit workshops to 6 guests per session.
Most small groups finish in 30–45 minutes, but please plan for up to 2 hours to allow for drilling time and a relaxed experience.

Once your pieces are ready, we’ll guide you through assembling your custom tiered stand. Pricing is based on the china you choose, plus hardware ($10 for 1–2 tiers / $15 for 3–4 tiers). You’ll leave with a one-of-a-kind functional piece that’s as beautiful as it is meaningful.
