Tataki Zome Workshop

Tataki zome or flower pounding, comes from the Japanese for hammering and dye. In this 1.5hr workshop with Susan D Martin you will have a go at creating your own unique greetings cards by laying flowers and leaves on paper, and pounding them with small hammers to transfer the colours and shapes. You can also experiment with making designs on cotton fabric.

All of the equipment and materials are included in the cost of this course – you simply need to book a place and turn up! For more information and booking, please visit our website. This workshop is not suitable for children under the age of 8 years old.
