departure from 2.00
All guests will go home with either a pair of earrings or 1/2 pieces of jewellery (depending on size), a lip balm, room spray and lotion bar. There may be the opportunity to make extra items. The craft table will also offer the chance to explore other creative opportunities, and will be stocked with individual kits with the makings of extra projects should you so desire. I lead all the workshops myself and am always thrilled and impressed by the professional and unique results that everyone achieves.
All materials are provided including 7g of silver clay, extra clay may be available to buy at cost.
We create a luxury, boutique retreat experience and therefore, you need bring nothing but the right clothes for whatever weather North Norfolk can throw at us (and even then, we have a stash of wellingtons and coats in various sizes to borrow if you are taken by surprise!). You may also want to bring gym clothes and a swimming costume if you feel you might be tempted. Otherwise, just bring yourselves and your unique creativity.
Price for 5 guests fully inclusive £2000
