Women, Wine & Wood - Saturday 4th May

Lynn from Red Beach

If you love rustic and farmhouse home decor, gather your friends and join us to create your own rustic masterpiece for your home or for a special gift. A solid pine wooden plank sign, which you will create from raw materials and paint your chosen design using a personalised pre-made stencil.

You can choose a design from any of the galleries on our website (except 'Personalised' & 'Family Tree' - done in another workshop).
diycreativeworkshops.com...

All materials are supplied, just bring an apron or old over-shirt to keep your clothes clean. Tea, coffee, and nibbles will be supplied, but if you feel like you may need a wine to get your creative juices flowing, then feel free to BYOB.

When you arrive at the workshop, you will choose your stain and paint colours.

As there are only 12 spots available, book now to avoid disappointment.
If you have any questions please email me: diycreativeworkshops@gmail.com
