HI, I'M BAILLIE
Create the Conversation blends art with meaningful connection, preserving traditional skills that are at risk of being lost.
​Imagine a future where generations no longer know how to mend clothes, cook from scratch, or grow their own food. We’re here to ensure these essential crafts are not only preserved but celebrated.​ In today’s world, hobbies are often replaced by endless scrolling on technology. We get it—we’re from this generation too. That’s why we’ve chosen to use technology as a tool for good, bringing creativity and connection back into your life. Through our workshops, DIY kits, and digital crafting platform, we’re helping you reconnect with yourself, others, and the traditions that ground us all.
Join us in this movement to create, connect, and keep these skills alive for generations to come.
SO, WHAT ARE THE CONVERSATIONS?
CONVERSATIONS WITH YOURSELF: Discover the joy of creativity in your own home with our DIY kits, thoughtfully curated for individuals to explore crafts. Each kit includes all the materials and easy-to-follow instructions needed to complete a specific project, learn a new new hobby or host a group crafternoon. Our DIY kits will be available on our website as well as an online store with additional materials and tools for when you get hooked on a specific hobby.
​
CONVERSATIONS WITH OTHERS: Celebrate milestones and bond over crafts with our tailored, Creative Workshops, designed for group settings. Hosted at a location of your choice, each workshop brings together a minimum of 8 participants for a hands-on crafting experience. The cost per person includes all materials needed to create your chosen craft, ensuring a fun and sociable experience. These workshops are popular at hen's dos, team building sessions, friends get-togethers, staff do's, birthday parties and baby showers - we can, however, cater to any event.
​
CONVERSATIONS TO SHARE: To complement our offerings and reach as many people as possible, we created a digital portal designed for creatives like you! Our Monthly Makers membership provides access to video tutorials, resources, patterns, and a supportive community of fellow makers. Each month, a new craft is released, and for just $29.99 per month, you can enjoy everything the membership offers. This accessible resource encourages everyone to embrace a hobby, learn new skills, and foster creativity while being more resourceful. Through this platform, we aim to spark inspiration and ensure traditional crafts are preserved and carried forward to future generations.
