Crafting Workshop Directory

Interested in our Directory? Here's how it works!

Choose a workshop - or two or three!


All of our workshops have been tried and tested at Birkhill and are delivered by local artists and instructors. Click on the workshop images below to find out more about each session.

Do you have a group of people in mind?


Our crafting experiences are ideal not only for learning new skills but for being creative together in a social way - great for hen parties, baby showers, reunions, family outings, self-care & team-building days and good old-fashioned catch-ups with friends. Each workshop has been priced as a whole and states a maximum number of attendees. Obviously, the more people attending, the lower the cost per person, but you can also do workshops one-to-one.

Yes, I have a group in mind!


Brilliant! Get in touch through the button below! We will take some details and then work with the instructor to organise your session.

No, but I really want to come anyway!


Not a problem at all! You can do our workshops one-to-one, or if you would like to share the cost with others, contact us through the button below. We often have a lot of people waiting for groups to be put together or we can do a shout-out to our subscribers and followers.
