Messy Minds – Creative Charm Decorating Studio in Guernsey

Messy Minds is a brand-new creative studio in Guernsey where imagination takes centre stage. Set up by 20-year-old local entrepreneur, Messy Minds is designed to be a welcoming space for all ages and genders to explore their creativity, try something new, and leave with a personalised piece they’ve made themselves.

The concept is simple but unique to the island: visitors choose from a range of items, from mini accessories to larger keepsakes, and then decorate them using colourful charms, embellishments, and adhesive craft techniques. Whether you’re looking for a fun afternoon activity with friends, something creative to do with the kids, or a unique date idea, Messy Minds offers all of these experiences.

A Studio for Everyone

Messy Minds has been carefully designed to be an inclusive, friendly environment. It’s perfect for individuals, families, and groups who want to spend quality time together while getting creative. The decorating process is easy to follow, so you don’t need any artistic background to take part. Staff are on hand to guide you through the steps, from choosing your base item to adding the finishing touches.

The studio is also ideal for birthday parties, team-building sessions, and private events. Group bookings can be tailored to suit different ages and preferences, making it a versatile option for celebrations or corporate activities.

Supporting Local Creativity

At just 20 years old, the founder of Messy Minds wanted to create more than a business, she wanted to give Guernsey a space that celebrates creativity and connection. Having grown up on the island, she saw a gap for a hands-on, craft-based activity that people of all ages and genders could enjoy together. Messy Minds is her way of bringing that vision to life.

By opening this studio, we hope to inspire others, especially young people, to pursue their ideas and take the leap into entrepreneurship. We believe that creativity is not only fun but also good for mental wellbeing, helping people unwind, focus, and feel proud of what they’ve made.

What to Expect When You Visit

When you arrive at Messy Minds, you’ll be greeted with a choice of items to decorate. Each piece comes with its own base price, and you can customise it further by selecting charms and embellishments. The process typically takes between 30 minutes and two hours, depending on how detailed you want your creation to be.

Everything you need is provided, from the decorating materials to tools and protective coverings, so all you need to bring is your imagination. Once you’re done, your decorated item is yours to take home and treasure, or give as a personalised gift.

Why Messy Minds is Different

While there are plenty of places to shop for gifts or take part in occasional workshops, Messy Minds is the only dedicated studio in Guernsey offering charm decorating. The atmosphere is laid-back and friendly, and the pricing is designed to be accessible so that everyone can join in.

The studio also stocks a small selection of creative gifts, making it easy to pick up something special while you’re here.
