Description
Do you find it difficult to think of Christmas gifts for people? Are you looking for a festive activity with a difference? Then why not come along to a Sea Glass Workshop and create a unique gift for someone. This Christmas workshop will allow you to create your own piece of sea glass art alongside making a few Christmas rustic baubles for yourself. This workshop will include a glass of mulled wine and a mince pie - other drinks and nibbles can be offered as an alternative. Using beautiful pieces of sea glass collected from around the UK, the workshop will allow you to choose your own pieces, design your own picture all under the guidance of Karen. You do not need to be creative, draw or even paint but you will surprise yourself at what you create. Feedback from workshops have highlighted how therapeutic and calming it is and the joy of being able to create something beautiful when the craft experience is limited. The workshops take place on a range of dates that include daytime, evenings and weekends. They are suitable for adults and children. Please enquire if you wish to have something specific like a birthday treat etc. Lasting for a couple of hours you will enjoy spending time in the moment and creating something beautiful for you to keep or gift to someone special. The workshops are held at Karen's studio in North West Leicestershire which will be festively decorated and have a cosy log fire going too. Workshops are suitable for small groups and also larger groups up to 30 people.
