Description

Decorate the wooden base bird house using Powertex medium and various textures to create a natural unique effect. The bird house has a top opening so the inside is able to be cleaned between seasons. Various embellishments are available for you to choose to add (or not). Your bird house will be unique to you, no one else will have one exactly like yours. I have small groups, maximum of 3 people so there is no pressure to keep up with a large group. I am able to offer individual attention so that you will be happy with your project.

Maker


Having crafted for several years, on retirement from full time work I had the luxury of time to take the next step in my personal development and become a qualified Powertex tutor. To run alongside this I also teach Mixed Media workshops. I work from home in my conservatory.

FAQs

On street parking is available. At weekends when everyone tends to be at home street parking outside might be difficult but there are street off Sleetmoor Lane where you would be able to park.

If you are doing the redin workshop you need to bring FAST SETTING RESIN.
For all other workshops everything is provided including gloves, apron and fun! I also provide snacks and drinks. If the workshop is late morning or over the lunch period please feel free to bring along lunch. If you are doing a Powertex workshop I advise to wear sleeves that are able to be pushed up out of the way.

Short and sweet answer - NO. You do not need any experience whatsoever. I will guide you through all stages of your project and you will be amazed how your creation will look. I work with you so no-one goes home unhappy with their project.

There is one step over a 6 inches high sill into the work area. The toilet is upstairs. Most of the workshops need a degree of hand dexterity. There are no other problems that could affect the disabled.

I like to give clients as much time as they need to finish their project. Some people will work less fast than other people. By working from home I am able to accommodate those who might need a little extra time, If you need to finish exactly on time please let me know.

I have an elderly cat (18years) who is very timid. We may not see her at all through the whole workshop. Sometimes she will wander through to take a look but she will not bother anyone.
