A slow Winter's day Workshop
You’re most welcome to take part in a slow winter workshop which will take place on Saturday 1 February 2025 from 10h30 until 17h30.
For many, winter is a dreary period. But what if we can learn to embrace winter and delight in a slow winters’ day?! With its cold and dark days this season creates space for reflection, comfort and creativity.
So let's embrace some quietness after a busy and festive period. Let's take solace in the gentle rhythm of the ordinary and be refreshed by a winter walk with our senses.
During this one day workshop there will be time to nourish our body and soul with movement, reflection and creativity.
We'll start this workshop with a winter walk and some reflections on nature in winter and what we can learn from it. With a warm cuppa we start tor create a personal winter wish list which will be part of our porcelain notebook. After a homemade lunch we start making the porcelain covers with imprints of dried flowers, stamps, words, …. Whatever you feel like your notebook needs! When they are finished, we will colour them.
After a sweet break it's time to fill the handmade paper pages with winter stories such as images, words, poems, dried flowers, stickers, …. I will provide a lot of material and printed winter images to make your own collages. There will be a reading nook with books about winter from which you can draw inspiration.
Your porcelain book covers will be fired afterwards and the zigzag paper notebook will be glued inside. Your notebook with your own winter tale is ready to be cherished!
This workshop is for beginners as well as advanced. For everyone who craves some quiet and creative time and a longing to slow down on a cold winter's day!
