Christmas 2024! Join Mellor & Rose this festive season at Barton Grange Garden Centre in Preston, Lancashire on our special Christmas Calligraphy Workshop suitable for complete Beginners and Intermediates! Christmas and Calligraphy go hand in hand, a perfect match and we couldn't be more excited to share the joys of Calligraphy with you. Start your Calligraphy Journey with Mellor & Rose on October 13th!
THE WORKSHOP
Guided by expert tutors; Beverly Mellor and Lucy Mellor, we will begin by covering the core fundamentals of this beautiful and calming art form including how to hold a dip pen, using dipping ink, learning the pressures and rhythms which gives calligraphy those characteristic contrasting strokes before moving onto learning the upper and lower script alphabet, how to link letters, first words and phrases (all festive themed of course and all exciting!)
We'll learn how to draw decorative illustrations and flourishes to complement our calligraphy and lettering up stationery pieces; cards and gift tags. The second half of the Workshop covers how to layout your Christmas Cards and Gift Tags, letter up and design a piece of seasonally themed wall art along with luxury stationery items. The 2.5 hour workshop includes a fully comprehensive Calligraphy Box with Starter Kit, Mellor & Rose Calligraphy Workbook, Luxe Festive Stationery items for your Calligraphy- yours to keep forever (and ever!) to practice with at home.
