Our programme of Tweens & Teens workshops runs throughout the summer holidays offering older children and young adults the opportunity to try a variety of new arts and crafts. See individual dates for guidance on age suitability.
July 30th - Embroidered Photos
You will need to send us a photo that will then be printed in black and white on to fabric. Children will then be able to embellish their photo with embroidery for example adding flowers or a hat! This workshop is with Anna from Sew Sydney. Suitable for children who have some experience with hand sewing.
8th August - Fimo.
Suitable for ages 11+. Children will use fimo to create jewellery and keyrings. They will learn a variety of techniques such as make Klimt canes and/or flower slabs.
15th August - Patches
Anna from Sew Sydney is joining us to run this fabulous workshop where tweens & teens can create their own patches to add to clothes, bags etc. They will use a mix of fabric pens, sewing and embroidery to create their designs.
22nd August - Shrink Plastic.
Suitable for ages 9+. Children will create designs on shrink plastic which we will shrink in the oven. They can then make them into earrings, keyrings, pendants, badges and gift tags.
27th August - Fused Glass
Suitable for ages 11+. Children will make a fused glass suncatcher (or upgrade to make a picture or more than one suncatcher - £15 per suncatcher or £30 for a picture). Children will learn how to cut the glass and use a grinder to make shaped pieces for their suncatchers. The glass pieces will then be taken away by us and fused and available to collect approx one week later.
