Maker Breaks – Weave a Laser Cut Lampshade – Thursday Evening – CRAFT MONTH
August Craft Month shines a spotlight on Ireland’s thriving craft scene and provides unique opportunities for people to learn about, make, see, and buy craft. Whether you’re curious to learn, eager to create, or looking to discover something handmade and meaningful, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
benchspace Maker Breaks are short, guided sessions designed to help you slow down, switch off, and reconnect with your creativity. You will create your very own piece in a single class - just show up and make! Choose from a range of pre-cut Shady.ie lampshade frames and let tutor Ali guide you through weaving techniques using colourful yarns and patterns. You'll explore texture and design to create a unique, hand-crafted lampshade that reflects your personal style and goes home with you at the end of the session. If you have particular yarn you would like to use for your lampshade, please feel free to bring it along! Materials are included in the cost of the workshop and no experience is necessary. We are fully inclusive and all skill levels (Adult 18+) are welcome, however, please note that this course requires hand-eye coordination and the ability to follow precise instructions with regards to safety.
Here's where to Go: This class is held in our B1b unit located at Eircode T12 KRH7.
