Hang, Swing & Sway: Wind Chime & Mobile Workshop

Create something beautiful that moves, catches the light and brings a little bit of magic into your space.

In this relaxed, playful workshop, you’ll design and make your own wind chime or hanging mobile, choosing the materials, shapes and colours that speak to you. We’ll provide you with templates for various shapes and demonstrate simple build techniques, once you’re confident with the basics we’ll explore together how materials, textures and forms can be combined to create something uniquely yours..

You might create a wind chime, incorporating bells, clay elements, beads, wood, textiles and other decorative pieces, or a mobile, building a simple hanging structure and filling it with your own hand-painted, cut or crafted shapes.

You’ll be encouraged to experiment with balance, movement, texture, sound and composition as you build.

Whether you want something delicate and whimsical, bold and sculptural, earthy and natural, or wonderfully strange, this is a chance to make something that is completely your own.

No previous experience is needed; just come ready to play, experiment and make something that hangs, swings, spins or sings.

What you’ll take home

Your own handmade wind chime or mobile, ready to hang in your home, studio, garden or wherever you’d like to add a little movement and personality.
