Northern Lights Paint and Poke Day
Toni from Easely Does It and Rebecca from Jack and Alice Crafts invite you to a truly magical creative retreat inspired by the ethereal beauty of the Northern Lights — blending painting, needle-felting, and a touch of winter sparkle.
- Booking essential
 
Begin your day bathed in colour and light as you paint your own Northern Lights–inspired acrylic scene on a 40x30cm canvas. Guided step-by-step by Toni from Easely Does It, you’ll layer iridescent paints, soft hues, and shimmery accents to capture the swirling magic of the aurora in your own unique style. Expect a little sparkle, a touch of cosmic calm, and a lot of creative joy.
Afternoon – Felt a Northern Lights Wool Keepsake In the afternoon, slow down and explore the world of needle-felting with Rebecca from Jack and Alice Crafts. You’ll create a textured, tactile keepsake inspired by the glowing tones of the aurora — using sparkly yarns, iridescent fibres, and soft, colourful wool.
Choose to make a framed felted picture, a decorative hanging, or a small keepsake piece full of wintry wonder.
