Are you a fan of DIY crafts searching for an exciting new activity to try? Experience a day in the life of a blacksmith and discover new creative passions at this all-day workshop.
Under the guidance of a friendly local expert, you'll get to grips with the tools of the trade, master basic forging techniques and discover the all-important techniques of fire management. Once you've absorbed a whole host of knowledge from your teacher it'll be your turn to get hands-on as you begin tackling some brilliant blacksmithing projects.
It doesn't matter if you don't know the first thing about forging, this workshop is completely beginner-friendly and a great chance to embrace your creative side and learn something new. You'll get to mould, hammer and shape your materials into anything you like - the only limit is your imagination!
By the end of your course, you'll have discovered the basics of blacksmithing and have a magnificent piece of metalwork to take home with you.
This class is great for individuals and couples as well as for a team building activity, birthday or hen do.
This would also be a unique gift for her, gift for mum, anniversary gift or birthday gift.
