BEAR MAKING IN BEAULIEU
adults only
These workshops are aimed at the enthusiastic beginner although basic sewing skills are necessary. You will be making your very own collectable mohair bear using traditional bear making techniques such as cotter pin and string jointing, glass eye fixing, stuffing and nose stitching.
Day courses at Bear It In Mind are held within the shop's adjoining character studio. Lunch is included in the price along with refreshments throughout the day. Registration is from 9.30am with coffee on arrival and the class starts at 10.00am. We keep our class size to a minimum to enable us to work closely with you at each stage. This also fosters a friendly atmosphere and perfect learning environment. (booking essential)
Please contact us for any further information.
The cost of our day workshop is £80.00 per person (payable in advance) which covers everything you need including lunch and refreshments.
We anticipate you taking away a completed bear but in the event of you not finishing in the time allowed, we can offer support over the phone or via email.
