Crafting Classes This Spring At Wool-n-Wood

After a wee break from teaching jewellery classes I am back. I will be teaching a basic jewellery class aimed at beginners as part of the Spring program of craft classes being held at the "The Studio", Wool-n-Wood in Kinbuck near Dunblane.  All classes are £45 (this will include all tools, materials and a scrumptious afternoon tea) You will make a lovely piece of artwork to take home with you. Classes are held 2pm until 4.30pm. Contact details can be found at the bottom of this blog post.

 Here is a list of what's available this March.


Sat 1st March : Up-Cycle Decoupage

The simple art of decorating a surface with paper.
If you can 'cut and paste' the old fashioned way, this is for you! No PC required.  Learn a new skill and take home your customised 'flower pot', 'wine bottle' or objects of your choice from our selection of goodies. Items supplied but feel free to bring along your own objects...nothing too big!
