I'm Harsha, a self-taught crafter and at India Inspired Crafts I teach a range of craft workshops from papercrafting, card making, bookbinding, art journalling, mixed media, macramé and more. Our projects are inspired by the beautiful colours, fabrics, patterns, designs, flavours and fragrances of India, giving them a twist of Indian Inspiration.
All of our workshops are taught at local venues in and around Loughborough, Leicestershire. Our craft workshops aim to encourage and improve wellbeing in our local community. A great way to switch off from every day stresses and enjoy some time to yourself, learn a new skill, and enjoy something you love.
I like to encourage sustainable crafting by reusing unwanted materials, and use eco-friendly products.
All our workshops are well paced and in a comfortable friendly environment. Perfect for every level of crafter.
All materials are included and refreshments provided at every workshop.
We are also available to run workshops at a venue of your choice or at your local craft group.
I look forward to crafting with you.
