For the last 10 weeks I have held after school sessions for children from 7 and over at West Calder Community Hub. The children have learned how to make their own clay creations from scratch with air dry clay and paint them the following week. They have explored the art of Gelli printing, learned how to do pebble arts, focused on Kindness and painted some lovely kindness stones and much more. They have had lots of fun, made some new friends and learned some new skills. :-)

After months of searching for new premises without any luck, I have decided to take my business mobile and come out to your venues instead! I can come to schools, nurseries, day centres, work places, community centres or your homes with my workshops and painting sessions. Please contact me for a no obligation chat about what I can offer: info@craftandkindness.co.uk

Sending you all big Bear Hugs and I hope you have a lovely festive period. Thank you all so so much for the support and love you have showed me this year. It has been fantastic for me to start Craft and Kindness and I have loved every minute of it! My Christmas wish is that I can once again have great premises, where I can make my clay creations, store all my material and invite you lovely people to workshops, painting sessions, birthday parties and more. Let's hope 2023 is a great year for all of us! Love from Rebecca :-)

Unfortunately, I need to find some new premises for Craft and Kindness before the end of October, as the charity that I (and all other artists in the building) rent of has cancelled our contract. Therefor I have had to cancel all the upcoming workshops for now. I still have Paint your own kits for sale, so just contact me if you are looking for something. Please continue checking in as I hope to have good news and some new premises soon. Lots of love to you all! Rebecca xx

This week I went to the LIFT group at Ladywell Baptist church. I brought my Easter Paint your own boxes, talked a bit about my Kindness projects and held a painting session with the 22 ladies. Everyone enjoyed themselves and there were lots of laughter. What a great group!

Due to the current advice from the Scottish government, the college has decided to cancel their Christmas market. I have lots of Christmas items available still, so if you are interested in buying any, please get in touch! Lots more pictures on my Facebook page! Thank you for supporting my small business! :-)
