Have you ever wondered, how do I make a lampshade? Well, unleash your creative skills by making your own handmade 30 cm round drum lampshade as Karen from Coker and Clarke guides you through the process step by step during this relaxed crafting session.
This inspiring, unique workshop will help you to unlock your creativity, meet like-minded people, and learn new skills. No experience is necessary, and as there is no sewing involved, you do not need to know how to sew!
We have a selection of fabrics for you to choose from on the day, including popular Morris & Co. floral designs as well as bold and abstract prints.
When is the workshop – and for how long?
We begin the 2.5-hour workshop on Sunday, 8 June, at 10am, and we will be finished by 12.30pm.
What is included?
The cost includes all tuition, fabric, materials, and items needed to make your own stunning lampshade.
If you wish to bring your own fabric, please get in contact with us before the workshop is held so we can discuss this with the tutor, as some fabrics are better suited than others.
What will I learn?
How to make a beautiful lampshade by hand, using the materials and tools provided within the workshop.
