FAQs
How big is the workshop group?
The max amount of attendees is 16, however we're often with a group of 8-14. Even with 16 you'll have plenty of space, a dedicated work area and we'll make sure to have the books and magazines on a separate table to optimize your table space.
What magazines and books will you bring?
This is different each time, but it will be a LOT! Everything will be recycled and vintage, so nothing published after the year 2000. Imagine books about nature, animals, cookbooks, fashion magazines, interior catalogues, art & antique books, children's annuals and comics - the odd Playboy, Disney book and so on! You'll honestly love the materials, I guarantee you that :)

This was a fantastic class. Laura is a great teacher with loads of enthusiasm. She helped all of us to produce a collage and have fun in the process.

Had an absolutely lovely time at this workshop! It was our first time collaging and Laura was a great teacher, gave great advice and direction which really helped us bring our individual style out. The time flew by and we could've kept going for another 2 hours! Would definitely do this again and we all left the workshop with a new appreciation for collaging. Thanks Laura!

I really enjoyed this class with Laura which enabled me to create a cool collage which I've framed and hung in my hallway!

We had a brilliant time at the workshop - Laura was the best teacher! She gave us lots of tips for our vintage collages and it was so therapeutic to cut out our chosen scraps and then put them together!

Had a great time looking through amazing source material to make a collage. Laura gave clear and helpful instructions to manage our time and not get carried away looking at the source material! I walked away with a great quirky collage that I'll treasure for a very long time. The class was set up very well and I got to meet some lovely people at the same time.
