Past Events

Late Create Spring 2026 brought together four professional artists and makers for an evening of one-hour workshops in Trull, Taunton.  Guests chose two workshops from heat transfer vinyl pouches with Ali Makes, printed bunting with Alex Williams, hand-stamped bracelets with Agalia, and watercolour florals with Caroline Merrett

The Light Up Mushroom and Toadstool Workshop took place on Friday 19 December 2025 at Hello Studio pop-up on Fore Street, Wellington — a gentle two-hour evening away from the festive chaos. Participants made their own air-dry clay toadstool or mushroom with hidden fairy lights nestled inside, ready to glow softly from a mantelpiece once dry.

Late Create Autumn took place on Thursday 18 September 2025 at Trull Church Community Centre — the kind of evening that makes you wonder why you don't do this more often. I led botanical lanterns, Alex Williams brought copper leaf rings, Katrilee Designs returned with floral resin jewellery, and Amanda Webb guided everyone through willow harvest hares.

Late Create Spring 2025 took place on Friday 4 April 2025 at Trull Church Community Centre.  Alex Williams led folk art painted candles, Amanda Webb brought living willow hearts, Kat Thomas (The Paper Florist) guided everyone through spring paper garlands, and Sally Light introduced the wonderfully named proggy rag rug technique.

Late Create Christmas (part one) took place on Thursday 27 November 2025 at Trull Church Community Centre — one of those evenings where the room just hums. Becs Cliffe led miniature winter houses, Alex Williams brought embossed copper decorations, Charlotte Butler ran silver hand-stamped bracelets with Agalia, and Amanda Webb guided everyone through willow stars.

​Late Create Christmas (part two) took place on Tuesday 9 December 2025 at Trull Church Community Centre — a second night of festive making that proved one evening was never going to be enough. Katrilee Designs led resin Christmas jewellery, Kat Thomas (The Paper Florist) brought origami paper stars, Amanda Webb returned with willow Christmas trees, and I ran a felt flower hairband workshop myself.

Late Create: Make & Mingle took place on Friday 13 June 2025  — a looser, more relaxed format than usual, and honestly a lovely change of pace. Rather than tutored workshops, guests dipped in and out of five self-led stations: wire button flowers, seaside clay, paper houses, felt flower brooches, and leaf printing, all at their own pace with cake and good company on hand.

Late Create Autumn took place on Friday 29 September 2023 — a proper seasonal evening that felt made for the time of year. Pam Martin of Somerset Stitch led Yorkshire buttons, Amanda Webb brought willow birds and leaves, Alison Bellringer taught autumn calligraphy, and Aizel Finch of Yalham Hayes Flower Farm guided everyone through mini flower wreaths.
