Shoreside Craft Studio

What are you doing with your extra day today? I'm planning some knitting, probably won't do any more for another 4 years 🤣 xx

** SAT 16th March 11am-1pm **

PaintPals invites you to paint this one-off beautiful Monet-inspired Japanese Garden bursting with blossom trees! No experience of painting necessary; you will be guided step-by-step through the painting process. If you have some experience of painting, you are also welcome to come and do your creative thing!

For £25 everything you need is provided. Tea, coffee & biscuits included.

Take home a gorgeous painting, created by you, and impress your friends and family. Our space is friendly and welcoming, so treat yourself to something different and feel uplifted.

Tip Tuesday 🪡🧵:

Did you know that using a piece of baking or wax paper behind your fabric can make it glide through the sewing machine more easily? Especially useful for slippery fabrics. I'm all for simple tricks that can save you time and hassle!

It's here!! Limited spots available, message to book, payment via BACS secures your place ❤️. xx

Unusual post from me this morning but needs must .... our chickens would benefit from an outside tap - can anyone recommend someone who might be able to sort this out for them? Thanks in advance from Dotty, Popcorn and Nugget 🐓🐔🐥❤️ xx

Can anyone relate? 🙋‍♀️

This 14th Feb, I'd like to show my love and appreciation to all of you! You are the scrunchies to my ponytail and the oars to my canoe 🤣.

Today's craft is perfect for half term ❤️.
Step 1. Go outdoors
Step2. Search for twigs/bendy branches (dry ones won't do, they need to bend!)
Step 3. Play hide and seek 👀
Step 4. Assess haul and choose best branches
Step 5. Holding them in one hand, bend half round one way and half the other
Step 6. Tie with twine or ribbon 🎀

Voilà! A rustic twig heart shaped wreath.

Add more twigs and/or ribbon or twine to your taste ❤️ xx

Valentine's crafts don't get much easier than this! I think this actually looks great as a piece of art, I'd definitely hang it on my wall. Grab a nice frame and pucker up 💋 😘. xx

Lipstick Art DIY - Valentine's Day Idea I love Valentine’s Day! In the spirit of all things lovey-dovey I got inspired to make a fun piece of art for our bedroom… using lipstick! I have been pinning lipstick prints (on my valentine board) like crazy for the past few weeks. I love the simple visual statment that kiss prints can make. S...

This is my fave painting 😍, book your spot now! xx

Freya’s Tears - next Sat 17th Feb, 11am-1pm Only a couple of places left so jump on if you’d like to paint your goddess! £25 no experience needed & all materials provided 🙏 Join our friendly & uplifting painting group 😊

If you've visited us here in the studio you may well have drunk from one of these very mugs!

They're an inexpensive Valentine's gift, craft for the kids or just because.

Grab a plain mug and a porcelain marker! Draw the design of your choice (or use a template if you prefer) directly onto the mug, let it dry and heat fix by popping it in the oven - ta-da!! xx

Well done guys, lots of lovely bees made today 🐝❤️ xx

Just a heads up if you're travelling to our Metal Embossing workshop on Sunday 4th - it's the Mad Dog 10K in Southport so the coast road will be closed in the morning. You may need to reroute your journey!

Well, we made it through January 🙏!

Happy 1st Feb everyone, what are you all planning for the sneaky extra day at the end of the month??

🎨 Tuesday Trivia 🎨

Did you know that the color wheel, a tool used often in art and design, was first developed by Sir Isaac Newton in the 17th century 🌈 ?

What's your go-to color combination?

Sat 3rd Feb 11am - 1pm

Come and paint Riverside Walk with PaintPals . No experience needed!

All materials are provided & you’ll receive guided tuition from start to finish. The price is £25 and this includes hot drinks ☕️ & biscuits 🍪.

Located next to the station 🚉, lots of free street parking available too.

Join us and feel uplifted! It’s fun 🤩

To book, message or email Jeni at [email protected]

Suitable for beginners upwards!

We are a friendly group who always have a good time painting & chatting;

Research time!

Would there be any interest in a regular monthly or fortnightly EVENING session in the studio, where you could come along with your WIP or UFO and chat while you make?

It would be an untutored session, sharing skills and knowledge with each other.

There would be a minimal cost, say £5, which would include a hot drink and biscuits.

All very relaxed, any craft you can carry would be welcome, the aim is to make time for yourselves away from the demands of daily life.

Let me know what you think ❤️ xx

Whoop whoop, another project finished!!!
The ends nearly did me in on this one but it's done ❤️!
Super soft, comfy and it's MASSIVE. Juno wasted no time in claiming it but sorry lady this one's not for you! xx

This is what most of my days look like! I'd love to say my life revolves around crochet, stitching and frolicking in the garden but sadly it's mostly spent in front of my laptop 🤣. xx
