We have a dreamy schedule of events coming up, from wreath making, to water colours, pumpkin painting to delicate beading.



Make something. Slow down. Get creative.


As the evenings draw in and the pace of life starts to shift, there’s something rather lovely about making time to do something with your hands.


This autumn and winter, we’ve got a little collection of creative workshops and seasonal activities at Amble. Think flowers, paint, beads, pumpkins and festive crafts. Some events perfect for a cosy afternoon with a friend, others are a lovely excuse to do something just for yourself.

You don't need to be “creative” or have any previous experience. Just come along, switch off from the everyday and enjoy making something.


Pumpkin Painting

Wednesday 21 October | 11:15am–12:15pmMonday 26 October | 11am–12pm | £8

A fun, family-friendly autumn activity for kids and grown-ups too. Choose your pumpkin, get creative and paint your own autumn masterpiece.

All materials and pumpkins provided. Fancy dress very welcome


Autumn Everlasting Wreath Workshop

Saturday 24 October | 4–6pm | £65

Spend a cosy afternoon surrounded by dried flowers, foliage and autumn colour with Natasha. You’ll create your own beautiful wreath using locally sourced materials, with guidance throughout.

A lovely one to do with a friend, or a little creative time for yourself.




Autumn Coffee Painting

Saturday 31 October | 10am–12pm | £30

Yes, you can paint with coffee!

Join us for a cosy autumn morning learning how to use coffee as your pigment to create your own artwork. It’s relaxed, beginner-friendly and a little bit different.

Your ticket includes all materials and a hot drink from the café.

Community spaces are also available for £15 if the full price is a barrier.


Beaded Jewellery Workshop

Saturday 14th November | 5–7pm | £30

An evening of beads, creativity and good company.

Learn how to make your own delicate beaded chain necklace, choosing your own colours and patterns to create something completely personal. You’ll also learn a simple technique that you can take home and use to make more pieces yourself.

Come with a friend, make a gift for someone you love, or simply make something beautiful for yourself.


Watercolour Christmas Cards

Friday 27 November | 6–8pm | £35

Get into the festive spirit with a cosy evening of watercolour painting.

You’ll be guided through some simple techniques and festive ideas before creating your own collection of handmade Christmas cards to take home. No painting experience needed, just a willingness to have a go.

There’s something especially lovely about giving someone a card that you’ve made yourself.

Community spaces are also available for £20 if the full price is a barrier.


Christmas Wreath Making

Saturday 12 December | 2–4pm | £65

A beautiful afternoon of winter creativity with Natasha, using locally grown and sourced materials to create your own unique Christmas wreath.

Relaxed, mindful and welcoming to all skill levels, this is a lovely way to pause before the Christmas rush really gets going.


Children's Christmas Wreath Making

Sunday 13 December | 10–11am | £15

A special festive crafting session for children, creating their own beautiful winter wreaths with natural materials.

A chance to slow down, get creative and make something lovely to take home and add to the seasonal decorations.


Whether you come along with a friend, bring the kids, meet someone new or simply give yourself a couple of hours away from the usual routine, we’d love to have you at Amble.

Come and make something with us over the shorter days. 

With warmth,
