A New Creative Home Has Arrived in London

London has always been a city of makers, artists, and creative communities. From the independent studios of Shoreditch to the arts institutions of the South Bank, the capital has long been home to some of the most exciting and diverse creative spaces in the world. And now, tucked beneath the railway arches of New Covent Garden Market — moments from Battersea Power Station, Nine Elms Station, and the beating heart of South-West London — a new creative destination has arrived. One that is already turning heads, filling up fast, and earning a reputation as one of the most original and welcoming workshop spaces in the city.

Welcome to Red Glasses Workshops.

The sister company to Tufting London — the UK's first and original professional tufting studio — Red Glasses Workshops is a vibrant, purpose-built creative hub that brings together a community of talented makers, expert instructors, and curious first-timers under one beautifully atmospheric arch. It is a place where creativity is not just encouraged — it is the entire point.

What Is Red Glasses Workshops?

Red Glasses Workshops is London's newest multi-discipline creative workshop studio — a space dedicated to bringing people together through the joy of making. With up to eighteen different workshops available across the year, rotating seasonally to reflect the rhythms of the calendar and the creative trends of the moment, there is always something new to discover, something new to make, and something new to take home.
Unlike a single-discipline studio, Red Glasses Workshops is a true creative hub — a place where one week you might be moulding your own silver ring, and the next you are hand-painting a candle, blending a bespoke perfume, throwing paint onto a canvas, or crafting a beautifully hand-formed fruit-shaped soap. The variety is deliberate and deeply considered. Because creativity thrives on discovery, and discovery requires variety.

Every single workshop at Red Glasses is completely beginner-friendly. No prior experience is needed, no artistic background is assumed, and no creative confidence is required to walk through the door. Just curiosity, enthusiasm, and a willingness to try something new.

Where to Find Us: An Address Worth Seeking Out

Red Glasses Workshops is located at Arch 61, New Covent Garden Market, London SW8 5PP — one of London's most characterful and atmospheric settings for a creative studio.

New Covent Garden Market is one of the capital's great hidden treasures: a vast, vibrant, working market that has supplied London's finest restaurants, florists, and food businesses for generations. The railway arches that line its perimeter have become home to some of South-West London's most interesting independent businesses — and Red Glasses Workshops is among the most exciting of them.

The studio sits just a short walk from Battersea Power Station and is minutes from Nine Elms Station on the Northern Line — making it one of the most accessibly located creative workshops in central London. Whether you are travelling from north, south, east, or west, getting to Red Glasses Workshops is straightforward and stress-free.
And for those visiting Tufting London — our sister studio, also located in the Nine Elms area — Red Glasses Workshops is just a three-minute walk away, making it perfectly possible to experience both in a single creative day out.

The Workshops: A Creative Universe Under One Arch

What truly sets Red Glasses Workshops apart from every other creative studio in London is the sheer range and quality of experiences on offer. With up to eighteen different workshops available across the year — spanning craft, design, wellness, and the decorative arts — there is something here for every kind of maker, every level of experience, and every creative curiosity. 

■ Fruit-Shaped Soap Making — The UK First

Our most celebrated and most talked-about workshop — and for very good reason. Red Glasses Workshops is proud to offer the UK's first fruit-shaped soap making workshop — a completely unique, deeply satisfying, and endlessly delightful creative experience that has already captured the imagination of London's creative community.

In this workshop, participants craft their own beautiful, botanically inspired fruit-shaped soaps entirely from scratch — blending fragrances, colours, and natural ingredients to create handmade soaps that are as extraordinary to look at as they are to use. Each soap can be personalised with a name, making it one of the most thoughtful and original handmade gift ideas available anywhere in London.

Each finished soap weighs approximately 240 grams including its rope — a beautifully
substantial, genuinely luxurious handmade creation that participants take home at the end of every session.

■ Silver Ring Making

Silversmithing has long been considered one of the most aspirational and rewarding of the decorative crafts — and Red Glasses Workshops makes it accessible to complete beginners for the very first time. In our silver ring making workshop, participants work with real silver to design, shape, and finish their own bespoke ring under the expert guidance of our skilled silversmithing instructors.

The result is a genuinely beautiful, wearable piece of jewellery made entirely by your own hands — one of the most impressive and most personal things you can create in a single session. As a gift, a keepsake, or simply a reward for your own creative curiosity, a silver ring made at Red Glasses Workshops is something you will treasure for life.

■ Candle Making and Candle Painting

Our candle workshops are among the most popular on the Red Glasses calendar — and they come in different distinct forms. In our candle making workshop, participants blend their own bespoke fragrance, pour their own wax, and create a completely personalised candle that fills their home with a scent they chose and made themselves.
In our candle painting workshop, the focus shifts to the decorative — participants use specialist techniques to paint and embellish candles with intricate, beautiful designs, producing pieces that are as much works of art as they are functional home accessories.

■ Aromatherapy and Perfume Making

Our aromatherapy and perfume making workshops are an immersive journey into the science and art of scent — one of the most ancient and most powerful of the human senses. Guided by expert perfumers, participants explore a curated palette of essential oils and fragrance notes to blend their own completely bespoke perfume or aromatherapy product. This is a workshop with genuine wellness credentials — the therapeutic properties of essential oils are well-documented, and the process of blending a personalised fragrance is as mindful and meditative as it is creative and exciting.

■ Pottery Painting

Pottery painting is one of the most universally beloved creative activities available — accessible to all ages, endlessly customisable, and deeply satisfying in the way that all hand-decoration of three-dimensional objects tends to be. At Red Glasses Workshops, our pottery painting sessions provide beautifully crafted ceramic pieces ready to be painted, personalised, and taken home as one-of-a-kind decorative objects. Whether you are painting a mug, a bowl, a vase, or a decorative plate, the result is a completely
unique ceramic piece that reflects your own creative vision — and makes an extraordinary gift for anyone on any occasion.

■ And Up to Eighteen More Workshops Throughout the Year

The Red Glasses Workshops calendar is a living, breathing document — rotating seasonally to incorporate wreath making in winter, botanical crafts in spring, textile arts in summer, and an ever-evolving roster of new and exciting experiences throughout the year. If you are looking for the most diverse and consistently inspiring creative workshop programme in London, this is it.

The Perfect Gift Experience in London

Looking for the most original, most thoughtful, and most genuinely memorable gift experience in London?

Red Glasses Workshops offers some of the most extraordinary gift experiences available
in the capital — and the fruit-shaped soap making workshop, in particular, has already established itself as one of London's most talked-about and most gifted creative experiences. Every workshop at Red Glasses produces something the participant takes home — a handmade silver ring, a personalised candle, a bespoke perfume, a set of beautifully crafted fruit soaps. These are not forgettable experiences that fade the moment they are over. They are experiences that produce lasting, beautiful, handmade objects — things to wear, display, use, and treasure long after the workshop day is done.
Whether you are celebrating a birthday, an anniversary, a hen party, a baby shower, or simply giving someone the gift of a brilliant afternoon doing something completely new — Red Glasses Workshops has an experience that will make them genuinely, lastingly glad you chose it.
