Mixed Media artist and Nottingham Craft Mafia member Gillian Lee Smith is teaching a selection of workshops at the Debbie Bryan Shop & Studio.  The next up-coming workshop is Lace Market Legacy – a journal making workshop to be held on Saturday 12th September. Inspired by the history and atmosphere of the beautiful Nottingham Lace Market this will be a fun relaxing day where the only goal is to immerse yourself in an indulgent day of creating! The result will be a unique and personal hand bound book.

Places are still available and you can find out more details on Gillian’s website as well as finding out about future dates.

You can also meet Gillian and see her at work at a Sunday Tea Party at the Debbie Bryan Shop & Studio in a ‘Meet the artist’ day to celebrate her collaboration with Debbie and to chat to the artist as well as partake in some tea and cake!! 11am till 5 pm with tea and cake served 2 till 3pm.

It’s back to school time and the cold nights are drawing in even quicker than they used to. Worry not, because ur very own Amy Blackwell is having a special Etsy sale! For every week in September she will be selecting 15 prints at random from her shop and selling them half price. Every week will have a new selection of prints to chose from so if you see something you like, snap it up quick! Items will be refreshed every Sunday.
