Working with wire is a very therapeutic activity, where we create images from our minds into 3D forms. In the workshops we will be working with plants and flowers, real and imagined, recreating them in wire. One of the most attractive parts of wire forms are the shadows cast in sunlight or at night by lamplight. No previous experience or knowledge is required to become immersed in the creative activity of working with wire in these workshops.

In these workshops, stems of flowers and plants are created, along with grasses, and held in a wooden block, creating a section of a hedgerow.
This can be as dense or as sparse as preferred. Placed against or near a pale wall, the shadows cast will form intricate shapes giving another dimension to the piece.

TESTIMONIALS

Just back from a thoroughly enjoyable and relaxing afternoon at Kate's wire workshop. It is hosted in beautiful surroundings.  Kate gives you a pretty comprehensive demonstration of how to manipulate the various wires into all sorts of wonderful flowers. You are then free to let your imagination roam and to get really creative with all the required tools at your fingertips. The only interruption was a piece Kate's absolutely delicious homemade cake. Also highly recommended. Thank you Kate for a lovely afternoon and for such a great introduction into the world of wire art.

Just a note to say thank you so much for a most enjoyable and inspiring afternoon yesterday. 
I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and learnt so much and am so chuffed with my treasure I took home. I am looking forward to showing it off, so who knows, others may want to come along and do a workshop. 
You were so informative and kind and helpful and the refreshments were delicious and the setting of your beautiful home all bonuses to a wonderful day.

I spent a lovely day with Kate learning how to craft using wire. Set in her beautiful house you immediately felt welcomed - by Kate and Hector ( the dog). From mere pieces of wire a small group of us learnt how to create flowers, leaves, grasses. Resulting in handmade wildflower scenes. On arriving with nothing we each left with our own individual works of art. Kate is a very thoughtful teacher. Going at the pace that best suited each individual. Nothing was too much trouble. Kate's enthusiasm for her craft is infectious and it was a wonderful day being guided by a skilled craftswoman. I would thoroughly recommend this workshop to anyone who wants to try something different or improve on their wire crafting skills. Wire and tools are provided - along with tea and scrumptious cake.

My sister, niece and I had a wonderful afternoon sat in Kate's sunny kitchen learning about wire-work.  Kate spent the first part of the session taking us through how to work the tools and wire, sharing some examples of her work and giving us some ideas of what to create.  She was very easy going and kind on us having never done anything like this before.
We then spent the remainder of the session creating our own piece to take home under Kate's guidance and delicious afternoon tea and cake.  We were all delighted with our arrangements and hope to return!

I was so pleased to do Kate’s Wire Workshop. She demonstrated how to make the flowers and leaves so clearly and made it easy to follow. It really unlocked our creativity and I was thrilled with the design I made. A really productive and fun afternoon, with delicious cake too!
