Hi, I'm Holly -
not your average
carer, artist or gardener
9 years of care experience combined with my artistic flair has equipped me with the skills to facilitate craft sessions and workshops for people of all ages and abilities. My skills and interests have led me to further support my clients by looking after their gardens, growing fresh produce and beautiful flowers.
I am currently at capacity for caring and support roles, but always leave space in my schedule for creative and gardening opportunities. Please get in touch.

My Most Popular Workshops
Available as one-to-one, small or large group workshops
Pressed Flower
Arrangements
Press your own garden or sentimental flowers from a special occasion then arrange them into a beautiful piece to frame. Stay traditional or experiment creating animals and fantasy creatures. Maybe decorate a handwritten poem or story with handpicked and pressed blooms.
If you don't have your own flowers, I have a gorgeous home grown selection for you to use.
Handmade
Scented Candles
Allow me to teach you how to make your own scented soy candles. Choose your preferred scent and theme then decorate with a safe sprinkle of flowers petals for the finishing touch.
Available to make in glass jars, metal tins or vintage teacups.
Perfect to make and give as a gift or just to treat yourself. Or why not book a workshop for you and a loved one?
Glass Painting
Glass painting requires a different approach to ordinary painting due to the shape of the items being painted and the type of paint used.
Both simple and elaborate designs work really well and you can decorate a range of items including wine glasses, tumblers, pint glasses, trinket boxes, mirrors and vases etc.
Crafts for Children
I have worked with children for nearing 10 years now and together, we've created some wonderful projects using even the most unusual things.
One of my favourite projects was turning a builders spot in to a textured, colourful sensory aid that could also be used to protect the table or floor during future craft projects.
