    We Know the Struggle. We Fixed It.
    For the creatives who swore they’d never get a real job - and now need to prove themselves (wait... that's us too?!)

    We Don’t Just Teach It. We’ve Lived It.

    We're Penelope and Eden, a creative couple from Melbourne, Australia - also known as Boring Studios©

    Our story is simple... We were sick of working for other people, having our creativity squished through agency work and our freedom decided by the mood of our boss that day.

    So in April 2023, we quit our 9-5s and created Boring Studios©.

    Starting from zero dollars, zero clients and zero idea how to run a business, we built Boring Studios into a creative studio with consistent $10k - $30k months.

    Now our goal is to show as many creatives, studio owners and freelancers as possible how to have full creative freedom of their work and their lives.

    Basically Boring Studios© exists because we believe creative brains don't belong in cubicles.

    We’ve Been in Your Shoes. They Didn’t Pay Well.

    We were the underpaid designers, the overworked freelancers, the “sure, I’ll do it for exposure” idiots. Then we got serious, built systems, and went from zero clients to consistent $10K–$30K months.

    Because your creativity deserves a business that pays you back.

    FAQs

    • A creative studio turned ecommerce store designed to help studio owners, business owners and freelancers with the business side of their creative endeavours. We sell tools, templates and courses specifically for creative people but anyone can use them to learn business or scale.

    • Basic knowledge of Adobe Illustrator, InDesign or Canva is required. However, our templates come with easy-to-follow instructions and prompts to simplify the process. 

      Please note, for visually heavy templates such as Brand Presentation, Brand Guidelines and aspects of the Brand Book you will require design skills or assistance from a professional designer.

    • We get bored, just like you. Everything we make is practical, proven, and designed for creative businesses like yours.

      Our templates are filled with Boring School to explain every part of the template; including what to say to clients about services, why certain sections are important, what to write and where, plus clear examples to copy.

    • We’re confident you’ll get value from our templates and courses - but if something doesn’t feel right, email us at penelope@boringstudios.com.au

      Because these are digital products, we don’t offer refunds, but we’re always happy to help troubleshoot or point you in the right direction. Just reach out whenever you need.

    • Yes. All of our templates are fully customisable. Whether you’re using Adobe Illustrator, InDesign or Canva, you can modify the colours, fonts, text, and more to suit your brand or client’s needs.

    • They’re self-paced but we would say around 2 hours including the lessons and worksheets.

      Each lesson is compact so you could do one a day as a daily habit or do the whole lot at once.

    • Oversharing is encouraged

      Think of this as free therapy with a sarcastic edge.

    • Value meal for creatives

      Bulk = smarter. Just ask KFC.

    • Free samples, like Costco

      Zero excuses when it’s zero dollars.
