Hello! We are Julie & Emma - a mother and daughter duo running Crafty Bee Block Printing! We have spent years enjoying many different crafts and being creative together. When we discovered block printing, we fell in love and haven't looked back! We love - and became slightly obsessed with - the endless creative possibilities to make beautiful patterns on various fabric items, with so many different hand-carved block designs and stunning paint colors. We love the simple, therapeutic, and creative nature of block printing and how it not only allows you to create lovely hand-printed textile pieces for your own enjoyment, but they make truly lovely gifts too!
In early 2026, we proudly became certified block printing tutors together and love running workshops in our hometown where we can introduce others to the wonderful art of block printing!
Our workshops are run on a small and relaxed scale. We'll teach you how to block print, inspire your creativity, and offer our guidance to help you create beautifully unique hand-printed items to be proud of!
We look forward to you joining us!
