ABOUT ME
The Crafty Hen workshops are something really special – beautiful materials, carefully selected, well designed craft activities and creative and skilled workshop leaders all lead to the hens having a fun, relaxed experience making something really personal and special together. They are a pleasure to be a part of.

“We had a great time - I never thought we would need the full 3 hours, but I think we could have carried on for another 3 hours! Katie was really helpful, particularly for those of us who were less experienced crafters, and everyone enjoyed it - even one of our very un-crafty friends! ”
