💚 Family Creative Session – “Monster Collage”
Join Toni from Easely Does It for a colourful, hands-on family workshop designed for children aged 3+ and their grown-ups.
Mini Makers is all about making memories and creating art together. In this fun and imaginative collage session, you’ll work side by side to create your very own friendly monster bursting with character, colour and personality.
Using vibrant papers and cards, patterned fabrics, ribbons, buttons, googly eyes, sticky gems and more, you’ll design a one-of-a-kind monster that’s as silly, cheeky or adorable as you like. Will your monster have enormous eyes, spotty fur, rainbow horns or giant teeth? The choice is yours!
👾 During the workshop you’ll:
✨ Explore a variety of colours, textures and materials
✨ Create a layered monster collage full of character and personality
✨ Add fun features such as googly eyes, horns, teeth and monster fur
✨ Decorate with buttons, gems, ribbons and embellishments
✨ Learn simple collage techniques suitable for young makers
✨ Bring your monster to life with your own creative ideas
Once your artwork is complete, you’ll give it a professional finish by mounting your A4 collage into an A3 card mount, signing and dating your masterpiece, and sealing it in a protective sleeve.
The result is a colourful keepsake you’ll be proud to display at home, gift to a loved one, or treasure as a memory of a creative day spent together. 💚
No previous art experience is needed, and all materials are provided.
