Fabric, Paper, Scissors Taster Day

 Today these wonderful ladies joined Karen and I at The Little White Studio for our Fabric, Paper, Scissors Taster Day... and what a fabulous day it was (despite the rain outside!).

 The day consisted of creating a collage on canvas using ephemera, images, found and sentimental objects.  Some of the ladies brought in their own family images and treasures to create a very personal collage, whilst others used elements supplied by The Little White Studio.  There was plenty of cutting, gluing and sticking going on as well as lots of chat and laughter, a very relaxing class.

 Here one of the attendees adds some stitched elements to the canvas

 Below are the finished pieces, all quite different as each lady made their own personal mark on their work, here Jenny's granddaughter was the inspiration for her piece....

 This pretty canvas below by Gill was inspired by her love of fairies and all things whimsy...

And finally, Gilly's memorabilia canvas, incorporating a photo of her parents on their wedding day along with jewellery pieces and brooch elements from her family treasures...

Please see the right hand side bar for more information on up coming workshops at The Little White Studio, do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or to request an application form.

Creative Collage

With our Creative Collage Taster Day coming up this Friday we thought we would add some examples of ways of working with collage.  Once you have the collage bug you will want to create your designs on many mediums.... Above and below we have added collage to journal and book covers, these make pretty gifts for friends and family, especially if you use an image that means something to the recipient.

Below we have used an old envelope printed onto cotton along with a vintage image and stitching to create a material collage Needle Case... lovely gift ideas for Mothers Day or Easter!

And another option below, collage on art board, this piece was designed using old wall paper, fabric, buttons and a vintage image..... As you can see the possibilities are endless, so why not consider joining us at The Little White Studio for a Collage Workshop??  Contact us via email for more details of if you would like to view the Studio and pop by for a chat you are more than welcome just drop us an email to arrange a convenient time.

A Few Sweet Treats to Tempt You!

Well, if these wont tempt you along to our Christmas Fayre this Thursday, then nothing will!!  These are the glorious "Sweet Trees" by Samantha's Cupcake Kitchen.  Sam will be on hand during the day and evening to present her Trees for sale, as well as her scrumptious cupcakes.  There will also be Cupcakes to sample along with a tea, coffee or mulled wine and any donation for these would be greatly received for Macmillan Cancer Research.

There are many other versions of the "Sweet Tree" on offer at our Fayre, to include Jelly Baby Trees, and Mini Marshmallow Trees, as well as Cone Shape "Jelly Star" Trees.

If you would prefer to purchase something that will be a little less damaging in the Weight Gain Department, then why not come along and take a look at the little Pine Cone Chocolate Delicacies we will have for sale, they make fantastic little gifts for School Teachers... very unusual and will be much appreciated I'm sure!
