Kids Christmas Glass Jar Lantern Workshop

Eco-Friendly Crafting for Creative Kids and Teens



5+ years & Adults     2.5 hours Class size 1 to 8 guests    

  £27 - £30 (£30 per guest when you book for 1 guest, £27/guest for 2+ guests)

A 2.5-hour drop-and-go morning camp at Vintage Chic ReLoved, Shepperton.
Kick off the Christmas holidays with a festive morning of making at our cosy upcycling studio, just a stone's throw from the River Thames! Using decoupage and hand-painting, children will transform a simple glass jar into their very own Christmas lantern. They'll layer festive papers, add painted details, and finish with a little tea light inside for a warm, twinkly glow to take home and enjoy. As a sustainability-led studio, we ask each child to bring along one glass jar from home. Old jam jars, candle jars, or anything glass will do! It's a brilliant way to show children how something destined for the recycling bin can be turned into something beautiful and one-of-a-kind. Jacqui, a former primary school teacher, will guide children step by step, with plenty of support and lots of room for their own creative ideas.
What your child will do:
  • Learn simple painting and decoupage techniques.
  • Layer festive papers and blend colours onto glass.
  • Design and decorate their own Christmas lantern.
  • Take home their finished lantern with a tea light inside.
Good to know:
This is a drop-and-go session, giving parents a couple of hours for Christmas prep (or a coffee in our on-site café!). All materials are provided, apart from the glass jar. Please send children in clothes that can get a little messy, with a named water bottle. Any special requests or additional needs? Just let us know and we'll make sure your child is supported.

Hi!
I'm passionate about sustainability and upcycling and I also have a real love for anything mid-century modern. I've been teaching for 15 years and I was previously an Assistant Headteacher. During that time, I was responsible for teaching art across different year groups and developed a love for creativity.
I've upcycled many pieces of furniture including impressive looking pieces of Stag furniture, Harrops Better Furniture and many other mid century modern pieces from writing bureaus to dressers. I've also upcycled simple occasional tables and bedside tables.
I have used a variety of decorative effects for my furniture including stenciling, decoupage (both napkin decoupage and rice paper), furniture painting and wood effects to create truly stunning transformative pieces.
Three years ago, I had a cancer diagnosis. I wasn't going to be beaten and this spurred me on to follow a more creative path, hence my love of upcycling furniture and the Vintage Chic ReLoved was created. I'm delighted that I now have the opportunity to combine both my extensive teaching experience and knowledge of transforming pre-loved furniture into upcycling workshops aimed at creating a more sustainable circular economy.
My upcycling workshops are for everyone. They take place at Vintage Chic ReLoved, Ferry Point, Ferry Lane, Shepperton TW17 9LQ. It's a cosy riverside studio.
If you are moving house and feeling the pinch needing to create a welcoming home with existing furniture; to learning how to create a stunning, one of a kind piece as well as being conscious about sustainability and ecological impact, or you just love to be creative and crafty, then my workshops are for you.
If you have any questions at all or you just want to connect, please do drop me a line on here. I always love hearing from you and I love forward to meeting with you soon at one of my workshops.
Lots of Vintage Chic love
Jacqui
