Fascinator Workshop
Design and create your own bespoke fascinator in this hands-on, beginner-friendly workshop. Learn to work with sinama and feathers.
In this small-group workshop, you’ll learn how to design and create a beautiful headpiece using sinamay (a fine woven straw), feathers and optional veiling. You’ll be guided step by step through the process, learning how to manipulate and shape the materials to create different styles, so you can leave with a fascinator that’s completely unique and true to your own design.
You’ll be able to choose from a range of sinamay colours and feathers, and experiment with different techniques in a relaxed, supportive environment. No previous millinery experience is needed, although you should be comfortable with basic hand sewing (starting and finishing stitching, running stitch and back stitch).
Tickets include your choice of refreshments:
£42.50pp including a hot drink & cake
£52.50pp including Lunch - Chicken schnitzel & fries, Beer battered fish, chips & peas, or Greek Salad with feta & olives, focaccia bread
£55.00pp including Afternoon Tea
Held in the warm and welcoming surroundings of The Lexden Crown, this workshop is a lovely way to spend the day with friends, family, or simply for a little creative time to yourself.
Spaces are limited early booking recommended.
