What to expect

Generally workshops are between 10am and go till about 4pm

 Finding us!

 We are at 401 The Commercial Centre, Picket Piece, Andover. SP11 6RU.

When you get to the Commercial Centre, keep driving round to the left as you arrive and you will see the kitchen showroom and Andre's Signs and blinds, go in the door between these two, and we are just up the stairs, first on the right. 

Refreshments

I’ve got plenty of tea and coffee (including decaf options) for folk, and there is always biscuits in the tin.

We will have a break for lunch, You are more than welcome to bring a packed lunch or there is a little cafe across from us where you can get sandwiches, burgers, jackets potatoes and the like. Or if all else fails there is a Tesco extra 5 minutes drive away.

 

Do I need to bring anything?

 

Not really. I will provide design paper, a selection of design resources and colouring pencils but feel free to bring a notebook and any design inspiration. This might be a favourite image with colours you love, or patterns that inspire you. But please don’t stress about this, if you just turn up with some enthusiasm that works too.
