Description
Come and learn the basics of woodwork to give you a new life skill. It's fun and not as difficult as you might think. Aimed at ladies who have no experience but chaps are welcome too. You can make a wooden planter for inside or out or a shelf unit for books/display items. You will learn how to use basic hand tools including saws, battery-driven drills and screwdrivers. Tuition will include how to plan and measure, saw, clamp, sand down and assemble using workbenches to make the job easier. You are welcome to bring your own tools if you wish but everything will be provided for you. The day is limited to just 4 people to ensure you have individual attention and help with your project. The workshop is a light airy space with glorious views over the surrounding countryside. I have been doing woodwork projects all my life and I run upholstery classes every week so I am used to teaching and giving people the confidence to tackle projects on their own.

Maker
I have always enjoyed making things and teaching others so both the woodwork and upholstery workshops are a joy. I make footstools to commission, teach weekly upholstery classes and run the one day workshops once a month. Everyone enjoys coming to the classes and workshops and it's a lovely space in a countryside setting.
