Private Studio Visits

​Inspired by the fact that a lot of folks like to come along to my exhibitions and open studios with their friends and family, this year I'm offering you the chance to book a free hour in my studio where you and your group have the place to yourselves.
You'll be given a complementary glass of wine or fruit juice, festive nibbles, there will be a prize draw, and you can spend some quality time with your friends in a lovely Christmassy studio filled with sparkly handmade mirrors! I'll be on hand to answer any questions, advise on colours and design, or discuss any commissions. Plus you'll all receive a discount on everything once your group as a whole spends a certain amount - the more the group spend, the bigger the discount!!
If any of your group of friends and family can't manage the steps up to the studio (it's at the top of my garden) then you're welcome instead to get everyone together somewhere else in Hastings or the surrounding area and I'll bring a selection of the smaller mirrors, tiddlers and pocket mirrors to you.
If you're interested, gather your friends together (studio can fit around 6/7 people) and message me to book a timeslot!

Please tell your friends!
