In this fun school holiday workshop, for kids aged 8 and up, we will be making a charming custom wall hanging, in this introductory course to the ancient craft of tapestry weaving.,
In this workshop, we will use and combine a variety of materials from wool yarn, roving, raffia and silk, and embellish our pieces with semi precious stones and other treasures, to create a beautiful unique wall hanging.
We will be using lots of beautiful wool and adornments, so it will look bright and colourful on your child’s wall.
