Chalkboard lettering
Come and learn the skill of decorative writing on a black board in our relaxed and friendly workshop with all materials included.
As well as being an enjoyable way to get creative, this skill comes in very handy for many small business owners. And if you work in hospitality you’ll become an indispensable member of the team!
This workshop is led by Laura.
What will we cover?
In this chalkboard lettering class, our tutor Laura will teach you four different styles:
- basic
- basic + serif
- faux calligraphy
- circus style.
You’ll also explore some banners, frames and flourishes to enhance your designs.
After practising the techniques you’ll work on a sign or quote of your choice on an A5 slate, which is yours to keep.
How will I be taught?
You’ll be taught in our lovely studio by a friendly and experienced tutor, through demonstration and guidance as you work.
You’ll also be able to ask questions, making sure everything is clear and that you’re getting the best results you can.
Do I need any previous experience or skills?
This chalkboard lettering class is suitable for complete beginners.
Are materials provided? Is there anything I need to source myself?
All materials are provided.
What will I take home with me?
You’ll receive step-by-step instructions on each style to take home, along with an A5 slate, eraser, chalks and a chalk pen.

Tutor
Laura has always been creative. From a very young age she was always drawing, and she studied art at degree level. A career in fashion design and buying became her focus, but when she took a career break to have her son, she rediscovered her love of all things artistic. She started her 'Love' business empire - LoveLetters (calligraphy), LovePetpics (pet portraits), and LoveFlowers (flowercrown parties) - and now can always be found painting, writing, drawing, making, planning or designing. Something creative every day!
