Autumn is here! Proof? A few raindrops are already bothering the Parisian crowd, and their blowouts. For those who hate staying cooped up: your devoted Do It Team has found super cozy activities to turn a rainy day into a happy day. From cooking classes to learn how to bake highly foodporn cookies, to creating a honey-scented candle for instant comfort, designing your own stamp to redecorate your apartment, and finishing the day with a spa + dinner combo : there’s no reason to stay under the covers feeling gloomy!
The Sweetest One
Rainy day ? Time for a comfort movie, a hot drink, and cookies! To learn how to make your own cookies with major foodporn potential, head to Cookie Folie by Déborah, a pastry lover and graduate of the famous Ferrandi cooking school. For two hours : you chop, mix, taste, and wait for one thing : those decadent cookies to FINALLY come out of the oven. Their extra perk ? Gourmet toppings to level up your creations with chocolate, hazelnuts, or dripping praline. Mmmmh…
The Most Crafty
We love Candice’s workshop, a true candle fanatic, who offers a super fun class all about honey. The idea ? Make your own beeswax candles using molds you choose and fill with a homemade blend. Once the wax has cooled, you create a personalized pouch to safely carry your new favorite object home ! Perfect for filling your space with a natural, delicious scent. You’ll be wishing for rain just to light it !
The Most Personalized
Just steps from Charonne metro, Olivia’s 100% creative workshop teaches you all the secrets of linocut printing. After these 2 hours, this technique will hold no mysteries for you. On the agenda : an introduction to the process, choosing your color and design, and finally carving a unique, reusable stamp to take home. Let your imagination run wild to find THE motif you’ll display all over your apartment, maybe even as DIY wallpaper!
The Most Princess-Like
The 5-star Paris J’adore hotel has found the perfect combo to end a rainy day on a high note. The evening starts at 7 p.m. with a two-course dinner in a chic restaurant with a well-deserved gourmet break, and continues an hour later with a wellness moment in the hotel spa. On the menu : bubbling hot tub, essential oil steam room for total relaxation, and even a salt cave for a quiet break right in the heart of Batignolles.
