Don’t sew but want to up-cycle your clothes or household items? 
 
Block printing is a really great way to experiment with patterns and colours to give a new lease of life to clothes and other items.
 
If you have a pair of jeans, t-shirt or a shirt that you don’t wear anymore, just add a splash of colour to create a new look.
 
Come and learn the art of Indian block printing, using individual hand carved wooden blocks and a selection of beautiful colours, to come up with your own design.
 
You will receive a demonstration and have time to practise before printing your own design to update clothes, bags or household furnishings. 
 
You will be supported throughout the workshop and there will be plenty of patterns to choose from.
 
The workshop will last for 3 hours.
Price £35

Information regarding how to ‘fix’ the colour-fastness of the colours and patterns, when you  get home, will be provided on the day.  
 
We will be using non-toxic water-based fabric paint and disposable aprons will be provided, but please ensure you wear clothing that you don’t mind getting messy in!
