Intros and Walk Through

Sit down and take a big breath as we talk you through the process and walk you through all of our supplies. We'll discuss how flowers, paper cut outs, sharpie drawings and wooden letters expose differently before you approach your print


Compose Your Image

Compose Your Image

Take your time to compose your image onto a piece of acetate. The transparent base give you something to play with, draw on and stick piece to.


Add Paper and Expose

Add Paper and Expose

When you're finished, we'll slide a piece of ready coated photo sensitive paper underneath the acetate you've prepared and pop it in the sun to expose


Wash Off and Reveal!

Wash Off and Reveal

As a last step, we wash off the cyanotype coating to stop any further exposure and reveal your beautiful blue print.


Join Something Good Workshops for a fast and fun introduction to mixed media cyanotype printing – perfect for curious creatives and market wanderers alike!
In this taster session, you’ll design a striking A6 image using a mix of bold materials: sharpies, plants, tapes, and wooden letters – all layered onto acetate to form your design. We’ll guide you through exposing and washing your print using sunlight and water, revealing your unique cyanotype image to take home within the hour.
  • You’ll have all materials provided – just bring your imagination.
  • Feeling extra creative? For £5, you can upgrade to include your own custom acetate design. We'll take a photo, or digital image turn it into a negative and print it so you can utilise it as part of your print.
This is a relaxed, drop-in style workshop – perfect for all skill levels and a great way to learn something new in just 60 minutes.

Hi, we’re Emily and Jess, the creative minds behind Something Good Workshops!
Our journey began in 2019 when Emily launched Something Good Workshops (originally known as MADEptford) as a way to spread crafty joy and raise funds for running the London Marathon. What started as a one-time idea quickly grew into a passion for bringing people together through creativity. Since then, we’ve hosted a wide variety of workshops, from arm knitting to body casting, in all kinds of spaces - corporate offices, cosy pubs, pop-up shops, and even people’s homes.
After taking a short break, we’re back with fresh energy and an exciting new partnership. Jess has joined the team, and together, we’re on a mission to spark joy and empower people to explore their creativity in relaxing, welcoming spaces. We believe there’s something magical about slowing down, working with your hands, and leaving with something you’ve made yourself - whether it’s a chunky knit blanket, a personal shrine, or a collage bursting with personality.
What makes us unique? We’re all about creating an environment where people feel at ease, whether they’re a total beginner or a seasoned maker. Over the years, we’ve held workshops in so many different settings, and one thing always stands out: the joy people feel when they realize just how creative they can be.
We’re not just here to teach a craft - we’re here to help you unwind, have fun, and leave with a tangible reminder that you’re capable of making something good.
We can’t wait to meet you at a workshop soon!
