COMING UP: Retro Revival Craft Night Wed 28 Feb 2018 (London)




Get ready for some seriously chic fifties inspired accessory making at this month's Free Craft Night, the first of 2018. We've opted for a fashionable vintage theme as suggested by one of our followers on Twitter and we've got a host of fun workshops for you to join. 

In case you've not been before then we can't wait to meet you! We're a friendly bunch and we have lots of lovely craft materials awaiting you. We're not like other events in London, there's nothing to feel intimidated about. You can simply turn up on your own or bring friends, family, colleagues, it doesn't matter you'll soon feel at home. Doors open 7.30pm and we craft until around 10.30pm. The earlier you come the more things you can make - yay!
