Your teacher
Hi, I’m Tash, the designer, maker, and joyful force behind Fitz and Gwen. I started my lampshade journey in 2016 with one simple goal: to create pieces that make people smile. My love for bold colours and playful patterns runs deep, and you’ll see it in every shade we craft, from punchy geometrics to romantic florals. Teaching lampshade-making workshops has been one of the most rewarding parts of this journey. I love seeing people light up (pun intended!) when they realise they can create something beautiful with their own hands. Whether it’s a beginner trying their first shade or a team bonding over fabric choices, I aim to make every class fun, inspiring, and confidence-boosting.If you’re looking to learn, laugh, and leave with something truly unique, I’d love to welcome you into the colourful world of Fitz and Gwen.
