Mindful Creativity – Kino Makers Month 2025

It’s our annual Makers Month!
Discover new ways to slow down and relax by exploring our range of mindfully crafty and creative books.
With a selection of titles from our Mindful Creativity picks, manifest dreams through your own vision board and collage, perfect your painting techniques or learn the joys of junk-journaling. Perhaps you’ll cultivate your own indoor jungle, learn how to mend your clothes or discover your DIY skills!
See where the process (and your imagination) takes you this month!
To celebrate Kino’s Maker Month, we’ve asked @thecalicofactory to design our very own sticker sheet, ready for you to use in your journaling or collaging, a lovely reminder of your visit to our bookstore.
Spend over $40 on any craft and/or gardening book purchase to receive your stickers*, in-store or online
We’ve been inspired by Martina’s Calvi The Art of Memory Collecting so for Makers Month we have turned Wedge Gallery into a giant memory collecting space, ready for you to get crafty, collage and create!
Step 1: Grab a prompt card
Step 2: Draw, collage and create with the materials provided!
Step 3: Add your masterpiece to our creative boards
Share your memory on social and tag us #kinomakes
