Learn how to create beautiful hand-lettering suitable for personalising an array of stationery - from greetings cards and gift tags to place settings and envelopes.
This two and half-hour mindful creative calligraphy workshop will take you right through from holding the dip pen and making your first calligraphy strokes to creating beautiful hand-lettered words.
You will learn the essential beginner strokes, lower and uppercase alphabets, and practise adding style, variation and joy to your lettering before going on to create a final piece of calligraphy on card.
The workshop is relaxed, super friendly, and we work at a lovely pace that is suitable for beginners. Included are all of the materials and equipment you will need for use in the workshop and are yours to take away for further practise at home.
So whether you have an occasion in mind, are looking to learn a new and beautiful way to personalise gifts, or are simply curious to experience the mindful nature of putting ink down on paper with traditional tools, join for an evening of pointed pen calligraphy, and learn how to start writing in this beautiful hand-lettered style.
