Your tutor, Suzanne, is looking forward to meeting you and says: “Get into the festive spirit with this fun and modern twist on traditional Indian block printing! In this hands-on session, you’ll use authentic hand-carved Indian wooden blocks to print a beautiful Christmas tree decoration and then take it to the next level with beads, dimensional paints, and plenty of sparkle.

What You’ll Do:

• Embellish it with glittering beads and 3D paints
• Take home a unique piece ready to shine on your tree!

A perfect seasonal craft activity for beginners, crafters, or anyone who loves a handmade Christmas.  Also a great way to meet up for Christmas Get-Together.”
