Mindful Messy Mandalas Workshop


This workshop can be booked on demand for a group of 2 to 3 people in my workshop, or between 8 to 10 people in a hired venue. Please contact me to arrange a date.
Three hour workshop, £35 per person.
Venue: My home studio, just outside Stanley, County Durham.

A fun and mindful workshop creating bright and cheerful mandalas.

Suitable for beginners, I’ve named this workshop Mindful Messy Mandalas, as the whole aim of the workshop is to have fun, and enjoy being creative, rather than creating precise mandalas.

We’ll start off by creating the coloured backgrounds for our mandalas using acrylic paints. We’ll use a loose and unconventional technique with acrylic paints, to create backgrounds with plenty of interest.

Once these are ready, I’ll take you through the process of drawing motifs and creating your mandalas. We’ll then have fun seeing where our drawings take us!

For those who are interested, I can also show you how to draw a more traditional and ‘precise’ mandala.

There’s no need to bring anything on the workshop, all tools and materials are provided. Hot drinks and light refreshments will be available too.

Workshops will take place at my home workshop just outside Stanley, County Durham. There are a maximum of three places on this workshop, so you will receive plenty of individual attention.
(Please note that my home workshop is accessed by stairs.)

I had a lovely time, despite being late because of traffic. Carrie created a calm productive atmosphere, very friendly and welcoming. I was encouraged to experiment and thoroughly enjoyed all the work we did. Great to meet new people, interesting chat with each other. I will definitely do more of her courses and recommend them to friends.

I had a great time on this course held in Carrie’s lovely studio with a friendly group. Carrie is an excellent teacher and explained the techniques thoroughly. All equipment was provided along with tasty refreshments. We all went home with a pretty mandala and mount, ready to frame our work. I hope to do more courses at Crafts for Wellbeing soon, and would thoroughly recommend it to others.

Really enjoyed doing the mindful messy mandalas course with Carrie. She explained everything we were doing step by step, and advised us if we needed it. She always makes you feel very welcome and relaxed. And she is so easy to get on with. This is the 2nd course I have done with Carrie and I am looking forward to doing another one soon.

This was a really fun course. I loved it. Carrie was very welcoming, extremely well prepared & provided excellent instruction & helpful handouts. As well as providing all materials to produce a mindful messy mandala, she gave us each a mount for our finished pieces & a bag she had made herself to take it home in – really nice touches. Highly recommended. I shall book other workshops.
