Jurgita Petraitė - creator, fostering crafts

Jurgita Petraitė, a creator living in the Utena region, has created a space with a simple but cozy name – “Jurgita’s Workshops.” It is a place where time stands still and everyday objects turn into small miracles.

Jurgita is not just a craftswoman – she is a creator of community. Her philosophy is based on truth: if it is soap, it must smell of meadows; if it is a candle, it must bring light; if it is bread, it must nourish not only the body, but also the soul.

Jurgita is characterized by exceptional patience and sincerity, so everyone is welcome in her workshops: from curious children to adults seeking peace.

Educational activities

Although Jurgita's range of talents is wide, three areas shine brightest in her "workshops", during which she shares her experience:

• Natural soap . This is a place where you can smell essential oils, herbs, and the promise of cleanliness. Here, each participant becomes the author of their own unique soap, and creation becomes a true refreshment for the body and soul.

• The magic of candle making . The soy or palm wax used during the education turns into a symbol of peace and warmth in your hands. Jurgita will help you leave your daily worries behind and immerse yourself in a calm, fragrant space where you will become the creator of your own unique candle.

• The path to homemade bread . Jurgita reminds us of the taste of real bread. Her authentic education is a journey from kneading dough to a delicious, warm loaf.
