Christmas Card Lino Printing Workshop - Friday 21st November 2025, 10am - 2pm
Come and join me for a laid-back Christmas Card Printing Workshop at the lovely Walford Mill in Wimborne. Design, carve and print your own cards to take home and send out for Christmas (unless you love them so much you want to keep them for yourself!). We will start with some warm up carving exercises to learn how to use the tools correctly and build your confidence, then progress on to carving a small Christmassy design of your choice (I will have some templates you can use if the drawing part is too daunting!). You will then print your design onto A6 cards, learning the inking up process and burnishing your prints by hand with a spoon! This workshop is suitable for absolute beginners or those who have dabbled in some lino printing before, and is less about the technicalities of printing, and more about getting in the Christmas Spirit, learning a new skill, and enjoying being creative with like-minded people!

Tea, coffee, biscuits and mince pies (of course!) will be provided, or if you prefer something extra yummy you can visit the Little Pickle Cafe at the Mill just across the courtyard. All materials and aprons will be provided, but if you can, please bring a rough design with you (approximately 10 cm x 7 cm max) that you would like to work from. We will have a maximum group size of 6 so that I can give everyone enough attention and you can get the most out of your session. Some Christmas music *may* even sneak itself onto my playlist!
