warrillow studio

You are very welcome! Here you will find a warm welcome into the world of millinery, and especially to the fun side of hat-wearing, with colourful and quirky headpieces the firm favourite here. Whether you would like to buy a fascinator or make your own, you’ve come to the right place. Whether you are completely new to and a little nervous about the world of millinery, or a seasoned hat-wearer, I will be more than happy to work with you to create your perfect headpiece. From the quirkily sophisticated, to the fun and flamboyant there is a hatinator to suit any occasion and to showcase your personality. There are ready-made pieces available in the shop and most of these creations can also be adapted to match an outfit in different colours, so please feel free to ask if you don’t quite see what you are looking for. Wearing a fascinator or hat for the first time can be daunting, but I am here to help and advise in any way I can. If you are local then you are very welcome to make an appointment to come and see me in the studio, but I can always advise via email, phone or Zoom too. I don’t believe there are any rules to follow; confidence and comfort are key and my goal is for you to feel amazing on your special day so you can simply relax and let the compliments flow!

tom sherlock

Born and raised in Birmingham, Tom has always been obsessed with making things. This obsession continued right through school and on to London where he studied furniture making. It was whilst in London his unusual style prompted his teacher to suggest he study sculpture. Taking his teachers advice after completing the year, he moved back to Birmingham and began his sculpture degree in Wolverhampton commuting daily before opting to move to West Wales School of Art - where they teach the fascinating process of bronze casting - to complete his degree. After completing his degree, Tom once again moved back to Birmingham where he continued his sculpture practise alongside working with family to further refine the carpentry and woodworking skills he learnt in London before setting up by himself a few years ago. The relatively recent decision to start offering courses came about almost by chance. The positive experience Tom had in West Wales ignited a desire to want to teach his skills to others – something that became even more apparent after taking on a couple of apprentices. However, with business being so busy it wasn’t until the apprentices highlighted the lack of woodworking courses available in the Birmingham area outside of full-time college or university courses. It was at this point Tom realised that this would be a great opportunity to give those interested in woodworking a way in without having to commit full time.

sarah greening glass

After 25 years in the NHS, for the last 7 years I have had a new career as a glass artist and small business owner and all that entails. My husband, Chris, is a potter and we are enjoying running our businesses side by side! We live in Worcester and can often be found at art and craft shows and galleries, taking opportunities to meet other designer-makers in the area. Most weekends we either have classes or have stalls at an art & craft market somewhere in the Midlands. I am loving sharing my passion for all things glassy with other people and we have great fun with our combined courses with whole day courses including lunch.
