Your Questions Answered
-
Is this a physical product?
No, this is NOT a physical product. The Layer Jar is a digital art course with video tutorials that guide you through how to use the prompts and build a layered creative practice. You’ll receive access to the tutorials and downloadable PDFs, but nothing is shipped physically. This is not a physical product.
-
Do I need a printer for this?
I do recommend that you print out the prompts, however printing is optional. The prompts are provided as a PDF, and you’re very welcome to use them digitally if that feels easier. If you’d like to cut out and use the prompts in a physical jar, you may want access to a printer, as there are 100 prompts in total.
-
Do I receive a physical jar in the post?
No physical jar is sent. The Layer Jar is a digital course with guided tutorials and printable prompts. If you’d like to use a jar, you can simply print the prompts and place them in any jar or container you already have at home. ❤️
-
How long do I have access to The Layer Jar?
Once you join, you’ll have lifetime access to The Layer Jar, including all videos and printables. You can return to it whenever you need inspiration, support, or a gentle way back into creating.
-
What materials do I need?
You don’t need anything special. You can use whatever you already have - pens, pencils, paints, collage scraps, old books, sketchbooks, or loose paper. Each prompt is open-ended and can be adapted to your preferred materials and style.
-
Do I have to create every day?
No, you get to decide. ❤️ While The Layer Jar works beautifully as a daily practice, it’s completely flexible. You can use one prompt a day, several prompts in one session, or return whenever you feel like creating.

“Kaisa is a very kind and generously encouraging tutor. I'd absolutely recommend the course to everyone who's interested in mindful art journaling, finding yourself in the quiet and playful space in your journal. Everyone can experience the healing aspects of it. I was surprised what the course actually did for me. Kaisa created a beautiful course and a lovely community”
— Art Student
“I loved to learn about this gentle and relaxing form of art. It helped me to make it a daily habit to show up to make art, as little or as much as I want, with no pressure at all. It helped me calm down. I made it a habit to journal before bedtime to calm down and find better sleep. ”
— Art Student
“Wonderful course, very relaxed and self-paced. I enjoyed the different techniques as well as the gentle reminders of being mindful throughout the process. I definitely feel I have become more mindful as well as loosening up about art journaling. I like the format - steps are separated, which allows for working in 10 minute sessions.”

A gift for your wild, wonderful creative self ✨

“I found out, that art making is my personal haven to get my head clear and calm me down. And that it absolutely doesn´t mean, that you have to produce something. Just getting lost in the progress and see where its going.”
