SUMMARY:Kintsugi
DESCRIPTION:Event: Kintsugi \nDate: Saturday 28th June 2025 \nTime: 12-4pm \nDuration: Approximately 4 hours                                               Price: £45\nIdeal Age: 18+ What’s Included: All materials\, including a piece of Japanese inspired pottery\, tuition\nSummary: We need to become more aligned with the concept that something being “broken” does not mean that it is useless. Nor do we have to see the concept of actually restoring something as making it ‘as new’.  \nKintsugi teaches us that in life we can turn adversity into something that is beautiful and resilient and shows us that in time\, we can heal from our wounds\, embrace our imperfections\, and become stronger. \nKintsugi known as the golden repair  translates as ‘kin’ meaning gold and ‘tsugi’ meaning ‘join’. \nUsing a 2 part premium non toxic epoxy glue and choice of mica powders\, we will repair a Japanese inspired piece of pottery which will be provided for you.  \nWe will take our time and gently convert our bowl into a beautiful piece to display and cherish reminding us that no matter our difficulties\, we can find a way to reframe and find meaning in life. \n\nAll 2025 workshop dates:- \n\n18.06: https://thebarnwirral.co.uk/course/kintsugi-14/ \n28/06: https://thebarnwirral.co.uk/course/kintsugi-11/ \n12.07: https://thebarnwirral.co.uk/course/kintsugi-12/ \n02.08: https://thebarnwirral.co.uk/course/kintsugi-13/ \n27.09: https://thebarnwirral.co.uk/course/kintsugi-15/ \n18.10: https://thebarnwirral.co.uk/course/kintsugi-16/ \n01.11: https://thebarnwirral.co.uk/course/kintsugi-17/ \n12.11: https://thebarnwirral.co.uk/course/kintsugi-18/

SUMMARY:Drum Lampshade Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Workshop: Drum Lampshade \nDate: Sat 13.04.25 \nOther Dates: Sat 08.02.25 \nTime: 2-4pm \nCost: £35 \nWhat you make: A 30cm Drum Lampshade \nAge: 18 years+ \nSuits: Beginner friendly\, home decor enthusiasts  \nWhat to bring: You will supply your own fabric so that you can co-ordinate this with your home decor. You can choose to embellish at home with trimmings of your choice or leave as a simple and elegant shade. The fabric you should source should be woven\, not too stretchy or thick and ideally cotton or linen. Avoid velvet\, wool or easily fraying materials. Half a metre of fabric would be ample but the exact size is 97cm x 27.5cm. If you want to keep life simple\, avoid fabric that has a directional pattern to it so a smaller repeat pattern for example.  \nBring reading glasses if needed for close work.  \nWorkshop Summary: During this relaxed and beginner friendly ‘no sew’ workshop you will learn to make a straight sided\, 30cm drum lampshade. You can choose whether your lampshade can be used for a hung ceiling pendant or a table lamp base. You will be guided through every step and need absolutely no prior experience or sewing skills. There is no machine or hand sewing involved- we promise!  \nA relaxed and friendly atmosphere\, with optional refreshments and scone bar selection to choose from. \n\nWe also cater for private bookings so just get in touch with your preferred date/s and party numbers to enquiries@thebarnwirral.co.uk

SUMMARY:Kintsugi
DESCRIPTION:Event: Kintsugi \nDate: Saturday 15th February 2025 \nOther dates: 29th March & 26th April 2025 \nTime: 12-4pm\nDuration: 3-4 hours                                               Price: £45\nIdeal Age: 18+ What’s Included: All materials\, including a piece of Japanese inspired pottery\, tuition\nSummary: We need to become more aligned with the concept that something being “broken” does not mean that it is useless. Nor do we have to see the concept of actually restoring something as making it ‘as new’.  \nKintsugi teaches us that in life we can turn adversity into something that is beautiful and resilient and shows us that in time\, we can heal from our wounds\, embrace our imperfections\, and become stronger. \nKintsugi known as the golden repair  translates as ‘kin’ meaning gold and ‘tsugi’ meaning ‘join’. \nUsing a 2 part premium non toxic epoxy glue and choice of mica powders\, we will repair a Japanese inspired piece of pottery which will be provided for you.  \nWe will take our time and gently convert our bowl into a beautiful piece to display and cherish reminding us that no matter our difficulties\, we can find a way to reframe and find meaning in life.

SUMMARY:Drum Lampshade Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Workshop: Drum Lampshade\nDate: Sat 08.02.25 \nOther Dates: Sat 13.04.25 \nTime: 2-4pm \nCost: £35 \nWhat you make: A 30cm Drum Lampshade \nAge: 18 years+ \nSuits: Beginner friendly\, home decor enthusiasts  \nWhat to bring: You will supply your own fabric so that you can co-ordinate this with your home decor. You can choose to embellish at home with trimmings of your choice or leave as a simple and elegant shade.

Half a metre of fabric would be ample but the exact size is 97cm x 27.5cm.

You can choose whether your lampshade can be used for a hung ceiling pendant or a table lamp base. You will be guided through every step and need absolutely no prior experience or sewing skills.
