Learn to Screenprint your own unique lampshade with Textile designer and printmaker Natalie Laura Ellen. In the morning session Natalie will teach you the basics of screen printing on to fabric, choosing your own colour palette to create a unique print from a selection of floral designs. Once your print has dried in the afternoon, you’ll learn how to use your fabric to make a 20cm lampshade to take away and cosy up a corner of your home for the winter months ahead.
