Top 5 workshops in Berlin XI

 

As we are looking for things to do, I tried many new workshops to see, if I can start learning something new. Berlin offers many do-it-yourself workshops which I find really refreshing. From cooking and macramé workshop as well as creating bath balls: I've tried them all! I would definitely highly recommend workshops even for a gift. To put it in a nutshell, here are my Top 5 workshops in Berlin!

Bath ball workshop by Sabrina

Bath ball Workshop 

 

Normally the Fühlbar Manufaktur is a wonderful, bright and friendly place to hold creative and sustainable workshops. Here you can celebrate, whether bachelorette party or children's birthday party or girls' night out. Due to Corona they now offer DIY boxes to get started at home.

They will first send you the box and give you an instruction what the ingredients for the bath balls are and how to prepare the basic mass. After that, the bath balls can be designed and combined differently with colors and fragrances (which you can find also in the box). I really enjoyed shaping the bath ball on my own and of course have a bath with my very personal creation too.

Dumpling workshops

DingsDums Workshop

 

Dumplings? The little wonder bombs stand for different kinds of fillings that are packed in dough and are native to many cultures. As I love eating them, I was wondering how to make them! Ana and Mau offer dumpling workshops called DingsDums. During the workshop they  show you how to conjure delicious fusion dumplings in no time and how to save food from being thrown away. You get tips on how to make the dough and how to fold beautiful dumplings with simple tricks. If you want you can eat or freeze the dumplings after the workshop and pack them in a nice gift bag.

Due to corona they send dumpling kits to your house and explain the cooking process in videos. As I am not really good in cooking, I could sometimes stop the video and take my time to learn how to cook. So I can highly recommend the workshop for beginners and for dumpling experts ;).

In this online LIVE workshop, you'll learn the basics of macramé knotting and make a plant holder or wall hanging for yourself.
