3 hours Class size 2 to 4 guests       £35 (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

In this festive decoration making class near Stanley, County Durham, you will discover the art of metal embossing by creating a Christmas tree ornament. The ornament will be beautifully embossed on both sides, making it a unique festive decoration to take home.
Don't worry if you're new to metal embossing – you'll be guided through transferring the design to the metal, mastering the embossing techniques, and adding an aged finish. To add to the Christmas cheer, you'll also incorporate a touch of colour to your creation.
During the workshop, you will:
  • Explore metal embossing techniques
  • Discover how to add an aging effect
  • Create a colourful Christmas tree ornament
By the end of the activity, you will walk away with a delightful ready-to-hang ornament measuring approximately 11 cm by 8.5 cm, perfect for your tree or as a heartfelt handmade gift, especially if tailored for a special someone.
Join us for a fun experience where you can unleash your creativity and craft a one-of-a-kind festive ornament from scratch. No prior metal embossing experience is required, as all techniques will be taught during the workshop.

I’m Carrie, and I’m an artist and art and crafts teacher based just outside Stanley, north east England. I have been teaching art and crafts since the early 2000s, and have been teaching these with wellbeing in mind since 2014, working with a local social prescribing service. Through personal experience I know just how engaging with art and crafts can bring about a wonderful sense of wellbeing and relaxation. I absolutely love passing on my knowledge and the benefits of art and craft for wellbeing.
My aim is to bring wellbeing through getting creative to everyone. I particularly love to teach absolute beginners and get them started on their creative journey. Rest assured, whatever your art and craft experience, I will guide you through the process and make it as enjoyable as I can for you. I work regularly with people who have long term illness, carers and people who live with depression and anxiety.
Since childhood I have always created art, and it has been a constant throughout my life. My main personal art focuses are printmaking, metal embossing, Celtic knotwork drawing and plein air sketching. Back in the 2000s I worked for a craft company for almost a decade, where I learned a lot of other arts and crafts, so I teach a wide range of skills.
Below are some of the organisations I work with either currently or have worked with on past projects:
Durham County Council – Highlights Rural Touring – Durham Lumiere – Newcastle Carers – Beamish Museum – Land of Oak and Iron Heritage Centre – Gateshead Art Diamonds - Breathing Space Witton Gilbert - plus many more!
As well as scheduled workshops, you are welcome to book a private workshop in my studio for between 2 and 4 people, or book a workshop for up to 12 people for your group or organisation, hosted at your own venue.
I look forward to welcoming you to a workshop soon!
