Work with recycled paper pulp, natural dyes and sustainable materials to create beautiful handmade papers.
You will begin by choosing and sourcing the fibres, colours and adornments for your papers. You can even forage on our wild land for gorgeous natural additions to your papers! You will learn how to make paper pulp and create your own screen to take home with you (with reclaimed materials of course!) before getting really stuck into the gloriously satisfying and creative process of making paper.
At the end of the workshop, you will have a bountiful supply of beautiful handmade papers but they will need time to dry! You can either plan ahead and bring a suitable box to transport them home on the day or you can leave them to dry here and I'll post them out to you.
This workshop is a guaranteed one-to-one session so that I can tailor the workshop to your interests and needs as an individual. You can achieve so much this way. Develop skills to start a new business, take up a new hobby or craft for the joy of it… I can ensure the day progresses the way you want it to.
A one-night self-catering stay is available for free with this booking in our onsite retro caravan (subject to availability). Please enquire.
All courses, workshops and kits come with free support afterwards. Email me or arrange a video call. I love to see what my students and fellow crafters are up to and really enjoy answering questions or helping if I can. So any booking isn’t just for the day it’s the start of a crafting friendship!
Bookings for 2 or more people are also available and may include a discount! Please see other listings or 'message the tutor' for more information.
What you'll get
  • Endless tea and coffee.
  • All the materials and tools needed to make your marbling creations to take home.

I first learnt to crochet as a child and spent hours and hours making, sewing, knitting and learning every new technique possible in art, craft and design. After a degree in graphics and 16 years of experience teaching Textiles, Graphics, Art & Design and Design & Technology, I strongly believe in developing my own practice to be the best tutor I can be. I am continually inspired by my students of all ages, so it's definitely a two-way street!
