A Day to Create, Relax & Bloom – Spring in Blue: Daffodil Paint & Poke Day
- Booking essential
- Admission applies
Toni from Easely Does It and Rebecca from Jack & Alice Crafts invite you to a joyful, calming creative retreat inspired by daffodils, soft blues, and the promise of spring — combining painting, needle-felting, and mindful making in their latest Paint & Poke Day.
Morning – Spring in Blue Painting Workshop
Guided step-by-step by Toni from Easely Does It, you’ll explore composition, colour mixing, and loose, expressive brushwork. Expect cheerful yellows, layered blues, soft greens, and plenty of painterly freedom as your daffodils come to life.
Calm, uplifting, and accessible for all — this session is all about enjoying the process as much as the finished piece.
Afternoon – Felted Daffodils Wool Keepsake
You’ll leave with two handmade creations: - A painted jug of daffodils on canvas - A hand-felted daffodil-inspired keepsake
Perfect to brighten your home or gift to someone who loves springtime creativity.
Paint & Poke Day – No Experience Needed
This creative retreat is designed for everyone — whether you’re picking up a brush or felting needle for the first time, or returning for more.
All materials are provided — just bring your curiosity, comfy clothes, and a love of colour and making.
