Decorator's delight! In this bright, colourful one-day workshop, we'll be designing and making our very own long strip of designer wallpaper!
Led by experience tutor Leela Bhai, starting with giant brush marks in dye, layering will begin with paint and crayon, finishing up with a spray-can stencilled emblem to cover a four-meter length of light card.
With a focus on composition, we'll learn how to design and build repetitive patterns with selective colour choices. Once dry, our wallpaper will be ready to roll up and take home to hang for a stunning bedroom makeover!
