Join us in a gorgeous garden workshop at this Christmas upcycling class in Northamtonshire, for an evening packed with creativity, upcycling fun, and festive treats! Get into the holiday spirit as you craft your very own upcycled star, handmade from reclaimed wood. It’s the perfect chance to channel your inner artist and make something truly special!
Not only will you leave with a unique wooden star, but you’ll also be able to impress your friends and family when they see how you’re embracing sustainable design. Whether you decide to place it on your mantelpiece, hang it on the wall, or even use it as a Christmas wreath, this star will be a delightful addition to your holiday decor for years to come.
Led by professional upcycler Amy, you'll be guided through using colour and design to create something that’s all your own. Feel free to go wild with a rainbow of colours or stick with something classic and natural – and yes, there will definitely be glitter paint involved. After all, who can resist a little sparkle? If you’re really lucky, we might even whip out the gold leaf!
No prior experience is needed, so come relax, enjoy the company of friends, or treat yourself to a little creative time!

  • 5/5 from Paula Doherty, attended Dec 2024: Fabulous class. Amy is so welcoming and her studio is a gorgeous, cosy sanctuary. We didn't know the two other students but within minutes Amy made us all feel like a bunch of friends on a school trip. We had an amazing array of colourful paints to decorate our sustainable, pre cut stars. With Amy's guidance I was able to make a considered choice. The real expertise was in the technique needed to create a unique design and finish. Amy was patient, while also challenging us to work outside our usual levels of comfort. We had homemade mince pies and brownies, with mulled wine and hot chocolate. Honestly, this was worth the price of the class on it's own. I didn't expect to be so excited about what I ended up making. Amy's expert guidance made sure that none of us would leave without a piece of art to be proud of. I am so pleased that I had already booked onto the Upcycle a Bowl class.

Hi I'm Amy!
I’m the owner, designer and maker behind Pinkyswifts. I live in Rushden, Northamptonshire with my husband and Reggie the dog.
I really love colour and pattern. And what I love even more is helping people to inject colour, sustainability and their own personality into their homes and workplaces.
I have always loved making and building things and have never been afraid of trying new things so while watching The Repair Shop one evening, I realised that if I didn't act soon, I'd never know what I could have done! So I completed an HND in cabinet making in 2019 and learned the foundations of both building furniture from scratch and - crucially for my future career - how to fix furniture that had already lived a life.
6 years on I am creating furniture for people all over the UK, helping them make their spaces as unforgettable and fabulous as they are!
