Our Workshops

Card Making

Various techniques used to make a card to take away and then make more at home.

Glass Painting

No experience needed nor do you need to be a great artist! Decorate various items with this easy to use medium.

Encaustic Art

You do not need to be artistic or be able to draw! Using a low temperature iron and coloured wax create beautiful pictures in an instant.

Silver Clay

A lovely product to work with to make real silver charms and pendants, cufflinks and brooches. Very easy and great fun.

Beaded Jewellery

Using various size beads and thread create beautiful items of jewellery. Either join one of our 10 week courses or come along to the fortnightly ones. All abilities catered for.

Tiara Making

Ideal for brides and proms and a lot easier to make than you think. The techniques can be used for other items too.

Jewellery Making

Using wire, thread and a variety of other mediums including Fimo, this is a different way of making jewellery to the beading.

Parchment

Once a month come along and learn a different technique on parchment. This can then be used to make cards or other decorative items. All abilities welcome.

Scrapbooking

Create wonderful albums of photos for your family to treasure. A class project will also be undertaken and a prize for the best ‘page of the day’.

Children’s workshops

We have regular Saturday morning jewellery making for the over 7’s. Also during the Summer holiday we will be holding Thursday afternoon courses. Great fun and all in a safe environment

Parties

We offer craft parties for children. We have space for up to 12 children with no minimum number. 1 ½ hours to make a small item to take home. Drink provided and you may bring your own food.
