Get ready to unleash your creativity, by learning to decoupage shells!

Shell Decoupage Workshop with Sandbar Shell Art & The Final Straw Foundation

Unleash your creativity and discover the beautiful art of shell decoupage in this relaxed, feel-good workshop.

Guided by Lou from Sandbar Shell Art, you’ll learn how to transform natural materials into stunning decorative pieces using eco-friendly techniques. Working with oyster and scallop shells—carefully collected from beach cleans or kindly gifted by local fishmongers—you’ll create your own unique masterpieces to take home (no oysters or scallops are harmed in this process).

This workshop is perfect for all abilities. Whether you’re a complete beginner or a seasoned crafter, you’ll enjoy a fun, welcoming evening learning new techniques, getting creative, and making something truly special.

The workshop will be held at The Ship Inn, in Langstone.

Come along on your own or bring friends—this is as much about connection as it is creativity. Expect a relaxed atmosphere, plenty of inspiration, and a lovely community feel.
