Lampshade Making with Studio Zef at The Walled Garden School

The Walled Garden School is located in the grounds of Hawarden Castle and is the venue for a Lampshade Making workshop with Studio Zef.

Book your course via the 'Tickets' button above.

During this masterclass, you will learn the art of block printing onto a cotton lampshade.

With a huge choice of blocks and paint colours you will be able to create a completely unique and beautiful pattern. We will provide 2D cut out lampshades to perfect your design on and a lampshade to practise on.

Printing on lampshades is harder than it looks, so we’ll make sure to give you lots of practice time! Once you feel confident enough and happy with your pattern, you’ll be ready to print onto the shade you will take home.

This technique can then be transferred onto linen shades, card shades, curtains, napkins, cushions, cards, wrapping paper; the list is endless. The final lampshade will come with a UK/EU fitting and is suitable for table/floor lamps.

You will leave this workshop with a 30cm empire lampshade which you will have printed your own pattern onto, using Studio Zef blocks.

£90 per person, includes lunch, a snack and unlimited hot drinks

A whole host of amazing cooking, craft and self-improvement classes will be held within the bucolic surroundings of Hawarden Castle’s Victorian Walled Garden.
