The Workshop
Using a selection of plants alongside locally foraged materials, you’ll learn how to prepare and extract vibrant natural inks.
Throughout the day, you’ll experiment with colour modifiers that transform and extend your ink palette, unlocking subtle variations and surprising hues. You’ll also explore different mark-making techniques - practicing drawing and painting with brushes and tools crafted from natural materials.
Whether you’re new to natural dyes or have some experience, this workshop offers a relaxed and supportive environment to deepen your understanding of botanical inks, build practical skills and create your own unique artworks.
Tickets include lunch and all materials!!

Huge thanks to Winchester and @tuttonandyoung & @madewinchester for an unforgettable weekend.
This was my first Handmade show, and I really enjoyed meeting other makers and chatting with Winchester neighbours. During these long days, the kindness of everyone at Made Winchester truly melted my heart.
Back in London with a lot of positive energy now. I will follow up on all the requests this week and feel free to DM me if you have any questions.
Thank you all again & wish to go back🤍

To all the exhibitors, tutors, demonstrators and speakers who helped make the first MADE WINCHESTER such a memorable three days.
Thank you to @winchestercathedral for inviting us in, and for the generosity and support shown throughout the festival — and to the Dean for welcoming us to a special evensong celebrating craft and creativity.
And of course, thank you to the many thousands of visitors who came, engaged with making, asked questions, shared conversations and took work home with them.
It was great.
