Embroidery Beginners Course with Live Plants!

We know that everyone can be creative and that craft helps us unwind after busy days. It benefits our mental health and self-confidence. We also believe that you can make your own art and experience it on your clothes and home accessories. 

Being in the presence of live plants, touching & studying the flowers, petals, and leaves, and creating individual arrangements with them gives a sense of peace. Nature is abundant in colors, shapes, smells & textures.

I invite you to this special event when we combine embroidery and wilderness – we will play with various plants and learn simple techniques to embroider particular shapes inspired by nature.

This is a full beginners workshop – we will cover all the basics and work on our own designs, composing them from live plants. We will arrange them the way we want, which helps a lot when making your own designs.

This idea came from a previous workshop participant, and I am soooo excited to continue with this series. This is the most knowledge-packed and valuable workshop I ever created! And the only formula like this in Oslo.

    I highly recommend this course! It is perfect for beginners who don’t believe they are creative as well as those who just want to learn a new skill to release their already existing creativity! Justyna is a wonderful teacher and goes through every step of the process with you. She is so patient and inspiring!

    What a great course! Justyna created a really special learning environment for us – in beautiful surroundings, with such a peaceful, homey ambiance. I loved the idea of using live plants, it made it easier for me to get creative, compose the motif and get an understanding of the different textures I tried to recreate in the embroidery. Justyna had and individual approach to us participants and patiently explained the different embroidery techniques. She was very encouraging throughout the course and provided all the necessary information about the different tools and materials we should buy if we want to continue our creative projects at home. I feel very inspired after this course and I’m excited to continue my embroidery journey. I highly recommend it!

    It is impossible to not feel comfortable and inspired in this course 🙂 It was one of my favourite weekends in a long time. Justyna is a welcoming and encouraging teacher, was extremely attentive to all of us during each step, and provided such helpful explanations and guidance for our creations and continued learning. I would extremely recommend this for anyone with any level of embroidery knowledge!
