Now we know that some of you may not like to hear the C-word at this point in the year. But Christmas has already well and truly hit us here at Crafty HQ. Our packing room is an explosion of festive ribbons, sparkly trims, jingling bells and cute Christmas fabrics. Preparations are underway for a for craftier Christmas season than ever before.
Over the past few months we have been running a series of pottery painting workshops for some very special B&Q events all around the UK. Most recently, we got crafty in Ipswich, helping to provide a fun customer experience as part of B&Q's efforts to raise awareness of Butterfly Conservation's hard work.
A few months ago we were contacted by one bridesmaid, hoping to plan the perfect hen party for her lucky Bride To Be. With grand plans for a bespoke craft workshop that was a little more unusual than our core range of ever popular creative hen parties. Now, we like a bit of a creative challenge here at Crafty HQ, and we loved this bespoke workshop concept so said yes right away!
Looking to plan an alternative Christmas event, a special end of year work party, or just a festive family get together? Then why not make 2016 a crafty Christmas?

It's been a bumper year for our flower crown making hen parties and baby shower workshops. We've been spreading the flower power far and wide - and a sharing our crafty skills along the way as well.
Armed with a mountain of colourful paints, a heap of paint brushes and crates upon crates of mugs - last weekend we got crafty with B&Q. Our crafty event team ran a great in-store mug painting workshop to celebrate the re-launch of B&Q's Cribbs Causeway shop.
Here at Crafty HQ we're a super busy flock of hens organising a bumper Summer of crafty hen parties, alternative baby showers, special birthdays and creative corporate experiences at the moment.
