Crafting Your Self

PXL_20210830_063334985.jpg

Gift yourself time to imagine, connect and craft Your Self!

I’ll guide you to make a needle felted figure to represent something you love about yourself.

Take some time for YOU and focus on who you ARE rather than what you are NOT! We need this strengthening, self-love building stuff more than ever right now.

We’ll gather together virtually at 2.30pm and give ourselves the precious support we’re needing right now. I’ll get a package to you with everything you need!

After our time together you can continue crafting cos you'll have everything you need right there in the comfort of your home!

I’m delighted to be able to offer this workshop virtually….

Take a breather,

Connect with yourself,

Literally Craft Your Self - A felt figure inspired by you.

 

Here’s all the deets…

Our time will include:

  • connecting and chatting,

  • personal creative time, and

  • the hands on making time…

  • Oh and of course there’ll be time to grab a cuppa in there too.



  • I'll guide you through every step of the felting process.

  • This is NOT an online meeting!!! I have taught hundreds of hours of hands-on virtual workshops the last 18 months so I know how to make it feel like we're sitting together in my loungeroom, NOT sitting in front of yet another zoom meeting.

  • Beginners are most welcome. Targeted to adults. Under 16s need an adult to be with them. Under 12s may find this activity too hard.

  • All the equipment and materials you need will be delivered prior to the workshop (NB. for express post - must register by midday Thursday).

  • Figures will be made from 100% wool tops and felted using special felting needles and foam blocks (provided).

Human Connection

Crafting alone during lockdowns has been something that has kept my spirits up, but the opportunity to craft in community with others was a really special experience. Complete strangers coming together for an afternoon, and by the end- sharing deeply with each other. That’s the power of human connection in the midst of a challenging lived experience like we currently know with this global pandemic. Thanks Fiona for facilitating a space for us to come together and leave having created something.

And hey, we’re keeping the group small so if you’re keen you best jump to it!

Remember….

When we take a moment to care for ourselves, we’re able to give so much more to those we love.

Questions?

Do you have any discounts available?

We’re so glad you asked. YES! We’d like to offer 1-2 reduced/no cost tickets so folks without the means can still benefit. Please get in touch if you’re in this situation and we’ll shoot a ticket your way.

Is this one of those intense navel gazing type things?

I get it… signing up to something where you’re being asked to get deep and meaningful can feel uncomfortable when you don’t know me! And If you’re thinking “I just want to do the craft” and leave the rest, don’t worry. We’re not going to be asking anyone to spill their guts or spend all afternoon reflecting. We’ll take a short trip into our creative unconscious to find the magic within; have a short time for writing/drawing/sharing and then we’ll jump straight in to our feltings.

If you’re keen, there’ll be plenty of space to contemplate and connect while we’re crafting. If you’re not, you can chat about whatever takes your fancy!

Urgh! Toxic positivity? No thanks!

I’ve got a huge radar for toxic positivity which comes in the form of “here’s the answer to your deepest struggles” or “just say this mantra daily and you’ll suddenly feel great”. There’s a lot of folks out there offering some form of quick fix to the complex journey of being ourselves in this big world. I’m not one of them! So expect encouragement and support to journey gently within to gift yourself a few moments of connection without any spoken or unspoken pressure to “be” anything other than just how you are.

Just a friendly reminder - we’ve only got a few places available… so you best get to it if you want a spot.
