Workshop Details

Date: Wednesday 4th November 2026

Time: 6:30pm - 8:15pm approx (please arrive 10 minutes before the workshop starts)

Venue: Ye Olde Bridge Inn (10 minute drive from Southwell)

Address: Nottingham Rd, Oxton, Southwell, NG25 0SE

Parking: Free onsite parking is available.

Accessibility: The workshop is in The Stables event space which is wheel chair friendly throughout with accessible toilet facilities.

Refreshments: Drinks & food available for purchase at the venue. I’d advise arriving early if you want food so you can eat in the main pub area before the workshop starts.

Whether you come on your own, with a friend or in a group, you'll spend a relaxing couple of hours creating something beautiful.

No experience is needed, I'll guide you through every step, and there's no pressure to be "crafty". This workshop is all about enjoying the process, taking time for yourself and connecting with others over a shared creative experience.

What's included

• A cushion cover ready for you to transform

• A thoughtfully curated selection of paint, brushes and materials

• A choice of classic, seasonal and a couple of Christmas-inspired designs

• Step-by-step guidance and plenty of help throughout the workshop

• Use of all tools and equipment

• Your finished cushion cover to take home

• A cosy, relaxed and welcoming atmosphere

Is this workshop for me?

Absolutely, if you:

• Love making your home feel cosy as the seasons change

• Want a creative evening that feels like a proper treat

• Like the idea of making something beautiful that you’ll actually use

• Enjoy beautiful things but don't consider yourself ‘artistic’

• Want to try something creative without needing any previous experience

• Fancy an evening of creativity and conversation instead of another night on the sofa

You can come along on your own, bring a friend or make it an evening out with a group. Many guests come on their own. You’ll be made to feel very welcome.

Age

This workshop is suitable for ages 16+.

Anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a paying adult.

What should I bring?

Just yourself! Everything you need to paint your cushion will be provided.

You may wish to wear something you don't mind getting a little paint on, or bring an apron to wear.

Important Information

Please arrive around 10 minutes before the workshop starts so everyone can begin together.

Unfortunately, late arrivals may miss part of the introduction and I may not be able to repeat demonstrations once the workshop is underway.

Cancellation Policy

Tickets are non-refundable.

If you can no longer attend, please let me know as soon as possible.

If you give at least 7 days' notice before the workshop, you may transfer your booking to another available Gathervale workshop (subject to availability). Transfers can only be made once per booking.

Unfortunately I cannot offer transfers or refunds for cancellations made within 7 days of the workshop, as materials will already have been purchased and your place reserved.

If I need to cancel or postpone a workshop for any reason, you'll be offered either:

• A full refund, or

• The option to transfer your booking to another date.
