What to expect

You'll arrive at the Valencia studio and receive a quick primer on tufting—how to hold the gun, control pile height, and build patterns. Then it's hands-on: choose your design, sketch it on backing fabric, and start punching yarn into the weave. The rhythm becomes almost meditative. Staff float around offering pointers and refreshing drinks. Expect some learning curve in the first 20 minutes; after that, muscle memory kicks in and it flows. By the end, you'll have a small rug—roughly cushion-sized—that's genuinely yours, complete with any wobbles or happy accidents.
