Maker's bio

I am a retired special needs teacher and have always loved crafting. My love of sea glass came after I found some on the beach in the Isle of Wight. I made some pictures and then decided to set up a sea glass workshop business. It is quite unique as there aren't any other people working with sea glass in this area and I love seeing what people create. You don't have to be creative at all to come to a workshop and you will be surprised at what you create. You might even get to meet David my husband aka the sea glass hunter!! He can tell you lots of tales about where he has found the glass! You will have a warm welcome with tea, coffee and cake too.

Alison reviewed: Sea Glass Framed Art Workshop

"This was a fabulous course, run by a lovely lady; Karen and her husband couldn’t have been more accommodating. I attended with a friend and we were both thrilled with framed pictures we came home with. This course was amazing value and we throughly enjoyed the experience."

"Thank you so much for your lovely review and so glad that you enjoyed your time in Leicestershire - just a shame the weather wasn’t a bit kinder. Loved your pictures that you made too and hope that your nephew enjoys his "

Nicola reviewed: Sea Glass Framed Art Workshop

"My friend and I really enjoyed the relaxed environment and huge choice of sea glass and other materials. Coffee and cake went down well too. Karen gave us free rein to select materials and design our choice of picture, but was ready with suggestions, examples and further materials as needed. A morning well-spent!"

Lusia reviewed: Sea Glass Framed Art Workshop

"I really enjoyed my session with Karen. She was really helpful with ideas and even though I am not an arty person I came away with a lovely sea glass picture (I couldn't believe I'd managed it!) Very relaxed atmosphere, tea and cake, a wonderful way to spend a couple of hours. "

Julie Turner reviewed: Sea Glass Framed Art Workshop

"Just come back from a very enjoyable few hours making a sea glass picture. There were 8 in the class and it was very relaxed and friendly. Lovely studio in her garden, refreshments and cake provided. The choice of sea glass and other materials was excellent. Would highly recommend and would definitely go back again. "
