You’ll remember I’m sure, that last year I went to Art’s Desire in Norwich to teach some Needlefelt Workshops. I fell in love with the shop then, and the whole idea of the Craft Lounge being a venue for people to come to learn to knit, crochet, felt and more.
The exciting news is that it’s re-locating in a lovely old cobblers shop just out of Norwich City Centre and will be opening in a few weeks. I love a renovation project and when I called in a few weeks ago it was just at the point when you see what a great space it will be for the shop, it’s tempting goodies and the crafting area.
Kay, the owner, came to tea last week for a catch up and planning session and being a dog lover arrived with a special present for Higgins. (Tongue firmly in cheek, I may say!)
This is it, in the ‘bosses’ chair…And this is what happened…
However, we had more success sorting out a workshop date, thank goodness!
And it is on…
June 14th 2014, from 10.30 – 1pm and price is £25.00 which will include materials,
and the venue is 82, Park Lane, Norwich, NR2 3EL
Please contact Kay via the Arts Desire website or me via the Planet Penny contact page if you are interested, it would be lovely to see you.
And talking of needlefelt, I am finishing off the Green Man, just in time. He goes off to the Forum next week for the Norfolk and Norwich Open Studios Taster Exhibition. I can’t believe it’s come round so quickly! I’ll post a picture when I’ve added the finishing touches.
Be back soon…x
I’d say cushion – 0, Higgins – 1. Way to go Higgins. Wish I could make the workshop, my husband’s family live not far from Norwich but sadly busy. I will keep an eye open for future dates though!
Ha! I guess Higgins showed everyone who’s really the boss! 🙂
Poor Higgins, he looks so sad.
Can’t wait to see the finished green man.
Clever Higgins he knows whats going on.
Can’t wait to see the new shop when it opens, it looks like a lovely space… it is literally just around the corner and down the road a bit from my house! xx
I hope that the workshop goes really well and that you enjoy teaching it. So, Higgins and the cushion! Well, he showed that cushion what he thought of it didn’t he!! xx
