About this event

  • 4 hours

Create a gorgeous set of LED spring blossom lights at this introductory silk painting workshop.

You will spend the morning creating decorative flower and leaf shapes on sumptuous silk fabric using silk outliners. A range of templates will be provided for you to use as a guide.

After a lunch break you will transform your flowers and leaves, hand painting each design with vibrant silk paints in a palette of springtime shades.

With a little careful cutting you will have a beautiful set of battery-operated LED lights to take away with you to add a bright, cheery glimpse of spring to a mantel piece, shelf or window ledge. You could even get creative and wrap your lights around a twig or use as part of an arrangement in a vase!

The workshop will begin at 10am, with a break for lunch and finish around 2pm

Cost - £49 per person - includes materials used

Organised by

The Craft House was established in 2016 in Saltaire by April Chamberlain, who continues to manage the business. Having started in Saltaire, The Craft House is now run from new, larger, premises at 109-111 Main Street, Bingley. We have a lovely ground floor cafe and welcoming workshop spaces on the first floor (reached by stairs with two handrails). We offer a vibrant programme of art, craft and textile workshops and courses for adults, enabling you to develop existing skills as well as try new activities. Working closely with a team of talented artist/maker tutors, we provide expertly-run classes in a friendly and supportive atmosphere. We cater for a range of skill levels, from first-time participants to people with existing skills (including other professional artists and makers looking to develop their techniques). Our emphasis is on encouraging creativity and enjoyment whilst passing on key skills. We also cater for private parties and events - please telephone us or call into the cafe to discuss. Please note that all our events are subject to us achieving minimum booking requirements, as we need to ensure they are commercially viable for our tutors - if we have to cancel an event, we will refund your ticket and give you as much notice as possible.
