Gold-line sand art parties for kids
We 3D print every child's gold outline before the day. At the party they fill it with coloured sand, and each one goes home with a coaster and a keychain they made themselves.
- From $395 for 10 kids
- 75 minutes
- Ages 5 to 12
- We bring everything and pack up
How a party works
No wire bending, no glue guns, nothing hot. The fiddly part is done before we arrive.
Traditional cloisonné sand art means bending wire for hours. We draw the design, 3D print the raised gold line, and hand your kids the fun part: choosing colours and filling every cell.
02
Kids fill it with colour
Each child gets a tray, a spoon and twelve colours of fine sand. Most finish a coaster in 30 to 40 minutes.
03
They take it home
A quick seal, a keychain to finish, and a gift bag. Ready to show off before the cake comes out.
The designs
Drawn by Yuki, here in Melbourne
Every board starts as one of Yuki's pencil drawings. Pick one set for your party and each child chooses their favourite from it.

Questions parents ask
Before you book
Something else? Text us on 0412 000 000 or message us on Instagram.
Is it messy?
Less than you'd think. Every child works in a deep-sided tray and we vacuum up before we leave.
What age is it for?
5 to 12 works best. Under-5s can join with a parent helping. It isn't suitable for under-3s because of small parts.
What are the glue and sand made of?
Water-based craft glue and non-toxic coloured sand. No heat, no fumes, nothing sharp.
Can the kids take it home straight away?
Yes. We seal each piece before we pack up. It's fully set by the next morning.
How far do you travel?
Free within 25 km of our studio. Further out it's $30, and we go up to 50 km.
What if we need to cancel?
Move your date for free up to 7 days before. Cancel more than 14 days out and we refund your deposit.
