Antique French Monogrammed Linen
Susy
Porter's passion for antique linen is contagious.
This beautiful art form is considered to be one of life's luxuries and to have
it in one's life makes it all the more beautiful. Susy has helped me start
collecting beautiful linen and her knowledge and experience is palpable. And here's what she has to say about her class...
"Are you drawn to the richly embroidered linen of the 19th century or ever wondered why people bothered with beautiful bed and table linen?
"Are you drawn to the richly embroidered linen of the 19th century or ever wondered why people bothered with beautiful bed and table linen?
Come and
discover why linen was so revered over the centuries and how it was used to
create the richly monogrammed trousseau that was handed down from one
generation to the next.
See and feel
the quality of different types of linen and be delighted by the lavish
embroidery used to embellish the linen of the nobility and the household staff.

Candle Making
Susanne Gronow started making candles a few
years ago and I am pleased to say she has agreed to share her skills with us.
"Vintage and retro items can often
hold evocative memories of times past, of our childhood where maybe a Mothers'
or Grandmothers' cherished things were kept in a display cabinet, to be used only on
special occasions. You may now be in possession of some of these much admired
but seldom used items.
Instead of leaving these treasures behind
closed doors I can show you how to convert them into delightful display candles
that will continually impress.
My candle making class will provide you with the
skills and confidence to transform some of your favourite things into beautiful
candles.
Soy wax is an environmentally friendly
alternative, a gentler wax, ideal for your precious items. The wax can be left
natural or you may wish to add a favourite essential oil.
This class will teach you the techniques as you make your own candle from a vintage piece which I will provide for you to take home and enjoy" - Susanne
