Don’t miss the Imagination Crafts WORLD LAUNCH!

We are super excited to announce that we will be the host of an incredible WORLD LAUNCH from Imagination Crafts this weekend on Saturday, 10th and Sunday 11th September!

Are you an avid papercrafter looking for your next challenge? Perhaps you love to work with fabrics but you’re looking for the next big, exciting thing? You NEED to watch the Imagination Crafts shows this weekend!

“Imagination Crafts are very excited to bring you a new concept and a new way to craft by fusing together your love of fabrics and papercrafting.” – Sue Baker

We welcome Kim Christopher, a new crafty guest to the Hochanda family as she demonstrates throughout the shows all of the creative techniques showing everyone how to achieve Uncle Owlbert, by the end of the day!

“Sue Baker, Kim Christopher and Lisa Baker have worked together to present to you Creative Textiles that use fabric, templates, papercrafting techniques, stencils, stamps, Starlight Textile Paints and all the other beautiful ideas, top quality products and new and exciting techniques."

Included in these brand new kits you’ll find detailed patterns and templates, photographs and instructions as well as Calico fabric, a selection of the stencils to be used to decorate Uncle Owlbert and his little Nephew Toots! Catch the shows to see how versatile the kit is as Kim shows you how you can use the pattern and stencils for your papercrafting projects! PLUS, learn how to print your own fabric (a bit like screen printing), and how to stencil print!

Don't miss this fabulous launch from Imagination Crafts on Saturday 10th September at 10am, 1pm & 5pm and even more inspirational shows on Sunday 11th September at 1pm & 5pm as they show you all of the incredible tips, tricks and techniques!

Barbara Gray - Giveaway

Who caught the wonderful demonstrations from Barbara Gray on Sunday, and again yesterday? Barbara inspired us all, as ever, and we had some busy shows. Barbara even jumped onto the phones to help with a customer query! That's the beauty of having our customer services and order line in house - and brilliant guests who are happy to have a natter to our callers. Barbara has also, generously, donated one of the pieces from the show, as a giveaway on todays blog post. Isn't it beautiful.

Meet the Presenter - Matt MacNamara

1. How did you first get introduced to crafts? I’ve always loved craft and had such great respect for anyone who makes and creates crafty items. At craft fairs it is always me that holds up everyone else in the group while I chat to the people on the stalls about what they have made. My wife Karen, or Mrs M, is very crafty too. She’s into the classic decoupage, upcycling old boxes and furniture. She also makes her own jewellery and I sometimes help her run the stalls at craft fairs.. 2. What have been your highlights so far on Hochanda? We have a very talented pool of guests, so there is always something so creative going on in the studio, so honestly, every day is highlight. I’ve also had the good fortune to have tried several crafts for the first time ever. It’s pleasantly surprising to discover that to be a good crafter you don’t necessarily have to be artistic, you just need to be imaginative and creative. We all have our own...
