This workshop is spread over two days, and is a collaborative teaching experience from local artist Katy and maker Caroline of Joy Revival Design.
We have combined our skills to bring to you a relaxed, creative workshop run on two consecutive Saturday afternoons at the Seaside, Joy Revival Design Studio, Edinburgh.
You will learn the technique of screen printing and be taught all the skills you need to turn your design into a beautiful 20x20cm lampshade.

Each design can use up to two colours and is printed on light cotton calico fabric.

Caroline will teach you how to construct your 20x20cm lampshade which can be hung from the ceiling or used as side lamp.
You will be guided step by step in:
