A selection of leathers – different types – will be provided for you to choose from for the outer covers of the notebook (all purchased from UK leather merchants). Janet will teach you how to assemble and stitch your book together using various bookbinding processes. Cleverly designed by Janet, the pages, once all filled, can be replaced again and again.

Join artist Hayley Stokes for this slate painting workshop in which you will make your own piece of weatherproof garden artwork to take home. You will be guided in the use of masonary paint to create images of birds, animals, plants and flowers to apply, along with lettering, on slate roof tiles – you may wish to explore the symbolism of your chosen subject through the text which you choose.

Hayley will have templates available but you are welcome to bring source material, relevant text, etc. No experience necessary.

All materials will be provided. An apron or old shirt would be useful.

£25 per person. Pre-payment is required to make your booking.
