Can you believe it’s nearly summer already.
Welcome to the latest workshop brochure that is jam packed with class after class. There is bound to be something to get your creative juices going. Many of the spring workshops proved to be very popular and were soon sold out, much to peoples disappointment. Again the only solution is to ‘BOOK EARLY’!
To give you a head start with this we are once again holding a workshop preview weekend. Sat/Sun 3rd and 4th of May 11-3pm. Here you will be able to see samples of most of the workshops. This should help you decide which classes are best for you. Classes booked at that time will receive a 10% discount.
After the nightmare of prepping the programme, the 7 Gypsies on QVC actually went exceptionally well. The products are proving extremely popular and we now hold a massive selection both in our shops and on our website. Yes, that’s right the website is up and running at long last!! It’s not finished but it is proving popular with those of you who have used it.
Due to the studio and website increasing volume we have decided that from July 1st we will be closing our
The studio shop is where you will find a larger proportion of our stock and also the more unusual and eclectic items.
Wishing you a lovely summer and hope to see you soon.Contacts
