Creative workshops designed to feel relaxed, welcoming and inspiring.
A safe space to slow down, learn something new and leave with something made by hand.
My workshops are created for anyone who feels drawn to making, whether you’re experienced or simply curious.
Each session focuses on a particular project, such as hand-painted baubles, candles or ceramics and includes all materials and guidance needed to complete your piece.
The atmosphere is intentionally calm and supportive. There’s no pressure to be perfect, just an opportunity to enjoy the creative process in like minded company.
You’ll be guided step-by-step, with space to add your own personality and creative touch.
Workshops are held in carefully chosen venues and creative spaces and group bookings or private sessions can be arranged. If you've got an idea in mind, please just send me a message, I'd love to host for you!
Upcoming workshop dates as well as pre-designed workshop packages can be found below. If you have any questions before booking, have a look at my FAQ's and anything not answered; you’re always welcome to get in touch, I'd love to hear from you.

Do I need to have any artistic experience?
Not at all. My workshops are designed to be welcoming and supportive, whether you’ve painted before or not. I will guide you through each stage step-by-step and there’s always space to work at your own pace. It’s about enjoying the process, not creating something perfect. Generally ideas flow around the room and it's always so lovely to see people coming together to share their creative ideas and inspiring others.
What’s included in the workshop price?
All materials are provided, including tools, paints, brushes and the item you’ll be working on (for example, a bauble, candle or ceramic piece).
You’ll also receive guidance throughout, plus light refreshments unless otherwise stated in the event details.
You simply need to arrive ready to create.
How long do your workshops last?
Most sessions run for approximately 2–3 hours, depending on the project.
Exact timings will always be listed on each workshop date, however please ensure enough time for travel to the venue as workshops will always start promptly to ensure maximum design and dry time.
What happens if I can no longer attend?
Due to the preparation and materials involved, bookings are non-refundable. However, if you provide sufficient notice, your space may be transferable to another person or date.
Please get in touch as soon as possible if you’re unable to attend and I’ll always try to help where I can. In some cases, a partial refund may be possible.
Where are workshops held?

If you'd like me to come to you for a private workshop, please fill out a contact form with as much information as possible and I will come back to you with a quote and my availability.
Is there an age restriction on your workshops?
Most of my workshops are for 16 years of age and older. Please note that individuals under the age of 18, must be accompanied by an adult.
I also host specific childrens workshops. If you can't find one available in the listed products, please do get in touch to see if I have any coming up.
