ABOUT ME

What I enjoy about teaching the Crafty Hens, is that those in the class who are new to crafting and usually think they can’t do it but by the end of the workshop they are amazed at what they have achieved.

MY FAVOURITE THINGS

I love cooking and experimenting in the kitchen. I enjoy learning new craft techniques and traveling to new places.

The workshop was brilliant - it went down a storm with the girls and we all loved our floral crowns. Catherine was great - really helpful and fun. We had a great time.

Huge thank you to Catherine and Hannah for running a great bunting workshop! They were very friendly and created a wonderful relaxed environment. They were so helpful throughout the session. Everyone loved it! It was perfectly suited to all abilities, including those of us who have no crafting skills.
