CREATE 48, Smith Street Warwick CV34 4HS
I opened my shop in Warwick at the end of May. It has been a dream of mine since starting felt making over 20 years ago. It is a lovely space, a studio, a shop, and an art gallery.
It is a one-stop shop for art lessons and craft workshops, felt making parties or buying artworks from local makers. (My work included!).
On sale is my felt work, bespoke clothing, paintings, prints, greetings cards, some jewellery, glass art, pottery and a few surprising items you will not find anywhere else!
Are you an artist with some stock waiting for the next craft show? If so why not get in touch and sell it in my shop.
Are you looking for a studio space? I might be able to help.
As a customer what art lessons and workshops would you like to do? What days would you like, and what group are you? (All ages!)
Might you be interested in hiring the shop to do your own workshop? Or could you work in the shop in exchange for studio space Monday -Friday term time only.
Workshops see below for links!
FELTMAKING WORKSHOPS
Workshops are for all levels, from total beginners to the more advanced felters. We will make felted landscapes, seascapes, themed seasonal felt, 3D flowers, and bowls all using the wet felting technique. Expect lots of fluffy wool, old towels, random pieces of bubblewrap and the smell of soap!
