How it works

We'll send a ClassBento Box to you (a craft kit with what you'll need). Shipping in the UK is free, and it should arrive within 2-5 business days. This craft kit only ships to UK mainland.

Enjoy the online class - after booking, you'll get a pre-recorded video with instructions. You're welcome to ask the teacher any questions you have.

What you'll do

Searching for some things to do at home that will awaken your creative side and keep your hands busy? Then punch needle embroidery is the DIY craft for you!

With our beginner-friendly starter craft kit, you will get all the textile art supplies and tools you need to craft your very own gorgeous butterfly. For the improvers out there who have their own punch needle tool and hoops, then our soft kit will give you the materials you need so you can also have your own butterfly.

You will also receive a link to a pre-recorded video tutorial that covers all the basics of punch needle embroidery including how to avoid common errors.

This butterfly inspired DIY project comes in three colour options for both craft boxes: pink, gold or lilac. Once your masterpiece is all done it will approximately measure seven and a half inches by five and a half.

Please note: The style of punch needle tools and hoop colours may vary if you get the starter kit.

Liberty Lodge Crafts

Hi, I'm Elaine and I am the proud owner of Liberty Lodge Crafts. I specialise in punch needle embroidery. I have crafted as long as I can remember and am always making or painting something.

I first started doing punch needle embroidery while working as a craft instuctor in a care home for disabled adults. I was struggling to find simple patterns that would be suitable for the girls to manage so started designing my own. During this time I was also undergoing treatment for breast cancer and found that doing punch needle embroidery helped me to relax and take my mind off the treatments. I found it simple enough not to be mentally demanding, but interesting enough for me to focus on. The girls that I taught also enjoyed learning a new craft that they could do with support.

I have always enjoyed craft fairs and have been making and selling things and attending fairs for years. I found that people kept asking me what I was doing as I sat at the side of my stall punching away so I made up a few kits before my next show and they sold before lunchtime.

So here I am 5 years later, having left the care home to do this full time. I am now free of cancer and have built up a small but thriving business which is still growing and I consider myself blessed that I have found something that I love to do that can pay the bills.

I now do the bigger craft fairs with a larger audience but still sit at the side of my stall punching away and encouraging people to have a go and have recently started doing in person workshops.

I love what I do and am never happier than when peoples curiousity draws them over to my stand so they can see for themselves what a lovely, simple and relaxing craft this is.
