Christmas Calligraphy: Hand-lettered Baubles

Join Alena- our queen of hand lettering- its time to bring out the glitter and DIY some decorations like no others. You’ll learn all the loops, twists and turns of brush lettering. We’ll start of with a paper and pen session to get your creative juices flowing, and then bring out the glitter and baubles!

We get stuck into the nitty-gritty,  doing warm-up drills to introduce you to the pressures and strokes of the brush pen. Once that’s all in place, each letter of the alphabet will be deconstructed into strokes to help you understand how each letter is formed. Getting these basics under your belt mean having the technical knowledge to go away and be wildly creative with your own lettering projects! Then, apply all your sparkly new skills to lettering the perfect christmas baubles, write whatever you please, and hang it loud and proud for all to see!

You’ll not only leave with key skills of lettering and DIY Christmas decorations,  but we throw in your very own set of brush pens and a workbook so you can letter to your hearts content at home. And once you’ve mastered the basics and become a bit addicted, make sure you check out Alena’s follow up intermediate brush lettering session to further your skills!
