Click on the link below to book your places on this free intro to paper marbling event at Resorts World Birmingham. Choose your time slot - all sessions on Thursday 28th August. Suitable for adults and children over 12 accompanied by an adult
Turkish or Ebru marbling is a very relaxing and rewarding activity steeped in history and tradition. I offer workshops in marbling on paper so you can take away decorated papers for your own bookbinding or scrapbooking project, and marbling on a silk scarf so you can take away your very own unique wearable masterpiece.
Experience the creativity of silk painting in this absorbing and enjoyable workshop for beginners. You can choose one of my outline designs and I'll guide through the process - you never know, this could be start of a new crafty romance.
Bookbinding is on the list of endangered heritage skills, and I hope to pass on my skills and knowledge to those who wish to learn. From beginners pamphlet stitch binding, to Japanese stab-binding, and then progressing on to stitching a book block and casing in using book cloth and hardboard.
More information to follow soon
