Mandala drawing is the perfect art exercise for developing a peaceful state of focused relaxation. In the workshop, Lou will share her techniques for creating detailed but simple circular pattern drawings. 
We’ll begin with readymade circle templates to get you quickly started, but Lou will also share methods of creating and dividing circles using compasses so that you can go on to create any kind of mandalas you like, on any kind of surface. We’ll work with fine liner pens, and Lou will also have options for colouring and decorating your mandalas with markers and watercolour.
During the workshop, you’ll develop your own collection of mandala patterns that you can use to build up intricate and complex designs that make every mandala unique. You’ll use these patterns to create a finished piece with the option of framing your completed mandala.

an anti-inflammatory, cleansing and invigorating Peppermint and Eucalyptus foot cream, and
a calming and relaxing Lavender and Rosemary hand and body cream.
You will work with a carrot oil cream base, which is rich in Vitamin C, and have the option of blending up to 3 personal fragrances from a selection of oils including Lemongrass, Orange, Lemon, Lime, Musk or Grapefruit if you prefer.
You will take home approximately 375g of hand-blended cream split across 3 beautiful, refillable glass Kilner style jars. And as an extra special finishing touch, you will embellish each jar with an individual label, and complementary decorative details.
All materials and equipment are included in the price, and we will be offering a complimentary fruity or fizzy drink alternative in addition to our usual refreshments.
After your workshop, you will be sent a set of notes including details of the ingredients, equipment and tried and tested recipes used, plus a list of suppliers so you can continue blending your own creams at home.
This is a great workshop if you want to cut back on single-use packaging; learn more about the ingredients you use on your skin - and which ultimately end up in our rivers and oceans; and love the idea of making your own using simple, easy-to-use methods. It's also a fun - and relaxing - creative activity to do at home, either on your own, or with other family members.
Bring a friend and save*
We love to encourage people to get creative together. If you have a friend or family member you'd like to join you, if you book a second space at the same time you can save £5 when compared to booking two places separately. Just select the 'Bring a friend' option when booking your second space.
