Creative Workshops
Workshops are offered by arrangement. It can be an individual workshop for one-to-one tuition, or for small groups up to 8 participants (larger can be accommodated on request). We host groups for special celebrations andcan include a garden walk including a visit to our 100+-year old woolshed.
Photo Gallery
We use natural materials in our workshops. Felt is made from New Zealand grown wool and we have our own alpaca fibre too. The textiles used for eco-printing are sourced from op-shops and the printing material is grown mainly in our own garden. For our mosaics we use broken and rejected materials and turn them into one-of-a- kind piece.
