Come and join me at Leith Makers for this lovely festive papercutting workshop. Booking through Leith Makers website. Here's the blurb and I'll pop a link in the comments xx

Ruthie Watt aka Papercut Punk is back with a new folk-art flock for a wintery workshop at Leith Makers. In this two hour workshop you will learn the deceptively simple art of papercutting and make a Polish Wycinanki style piece to take home. Associated with the region of Kurpie, the art is typically a symmetrical design, cut from a single piece of paper, folded a single time, and features spruce trees and birds as the most popular motifs.

No drawing skills necessary as there will be adaptable templates to work from but you will be fully encouraged to express yourself through the magic of paper if you wish!
In this 2 hour workshop you will learn the basics of papercutting and then have the chance to let your imagination run riot.

Suitability: Beginner up, 18+

What we provide: All materials, & tea and coffee.

Hello! I'm running a few workshops in case any of you are looking to learn a new skill/hang out with lovely folk 😊 My first is at the Old Barn Edinburgh - I'll put a link in the comments (I have one every month up to Christmas there ) and I have another in November at Portobello Town Hall with SUPPORT THE MAKERS - again I'll add a link when I can.
All suitable for beginners, I'll have a range of templates - some botanical, some festive and some lovely forest tea light holders. I'd love to see you there, any questions just let me know xx
