How to make these amazing glowing jars, great for parties, or do red white and blue ones for night time jubilee celebrations?
Lately I’ve been blogging very rarely, this is because I’m in my final year (and now final week!) of my degree in textile crafts! So all my blogging at the moment is for the official degree show run up blog!
Would YOU like to see a blog recording the journey of 20 textile crafts students towards finishing their degree? With work spanning product, design, textile art, craftivism, installation, jewellery, interior design, traditional techniques, new technology, there’s a lot to be inspired by!
This very morning we’ve started to put the degree show up. It’s a scary time for all of us! Help us feel better by following our blog here!
And if you can and you’re in the Yorkshire area, come to our degree show! We’ll be running workshops the whole time it’s open.
This blog will also run after the show to show you what the recent graduates are getting up to making their way in the big and scary craft, design and arts world.
Theres nothing worse than getting out of a hot shower or bath to have your toes frozen on a cold floor! A hand felted Alpaca bath matt is the ideal solution; Alpaca is wonderfully soft and because an Alpaca’s wool has hollow fibre’s it makes the felt feel warm to the touch.

“Informed by uncontrollable photography techniques, my practice mainly explores approaches to mark-making and surface design through chance, process and abstraction. I am interested in challenging perceptions of materiality and what is seen as ‘textile’.
Throughout my final year at university, I have developed my own media of substrates using the likes of pva glue, silicones and plastics. this has enabled further investigations into tactility, tanglibility and aesthetics; and has allowed me to reinvent and redesign my own approach to sensory surface design.
Studying on a craft course has taught me the importance of the handmade. Skilled, time-invested, high quality craftmanship is integral to my ethos as a designer. Consequently, i strive to achieve a constant high standard of work, and invest great a commitment into perfecting my practice.”
