Workshops


Alongside studies and vintage markets I am still taking on arts workshops so if anyone has any queries regarding art / craft projects or classes please drop me a line to discuss workshop opportunities.

I will be at The Ashcroft Arts Centre, Fareham on Wednesday 10th April running a morning of prop making as part of the 'Make a Fairytale' children's workshops.

I will also be at The Ashcroft on Tuesday 24th April 7.15 - 9.15pm for an evening of grown up crafts as part of the Monthly Make Program where we will be making recycled paper landscapes.

I have been involved in the 'Vintage and Very Nice Market Bazaar' held at The Assembly Rooms, Chichester every month.

After designing their poster, I took up stall spaces at the January and recent Easter markets to flog my wares. These include a new range of driftwood jewellery, brooches and hanging decorations. Watch this space for more pics and the new designs I'm working on for the VVN Wedding Fair.

This incredible opportunity means that I currently spend my days elbow deep in sawdust and antique furniture as my training to become a furniture conservator.

Everything else has been put on a back burner but I am now attempting to update my news and let you know what else I've been up to. Below are a few of the things I have made so far at West Dean........
