Maker
Rachel Ellen – Craftsperson & Tutor Trained as a graphic designer, I spent 15 years teaching Art & Design and Design Technology, sharing my love of creativity with students of all ages. Craft has always been my passion, not just for the joy it brings but for the skills, confidence, and sense of accomplishment it fosters. Now based in the beautiful Shropshire hills, I feel privileged to welcome crafters from across the UK and beyond to my studio—and now online—to explore traditional and contemporary craft techniques. My teaching is all about supporting each person’s creative journey in a way that works for them, focusing on skill development, sustainability, and making long-lasting pieces. Thoughtful material choices and minimising waste are at the heart of my practice, ensuring that craft remains both joyful and responsible for generations to come.

FAQs
All your materials, endless tea and coffee and camping accommodation for 'One to One' bookings (this may also be available for other bookings subject to availability - please enquire).
I only take individual bookings so there will only be the people you choose to book for! This means I can make sure the workshop is exactly what individuals and groups want and everyone gets more out of it.
I normally start at 0930hrs but as I only take individual bookings I can be flexible with timings (subject to availability) to suit you.
No need to bring anything with you for your course or workshop unless you want to bring examples or inspiration ... but there are plenty of both here in the studio (surrounded by the beautiful Shropshire Hills) so you can just bring your lovely self!
There is a cute retro caravan that sleeps 1-2 people available onsite (The Old School Campsite) free of charge for 'one to one' bookings (subject to availability). There are also glamping bell tents in the summer and camping pitches available onsite. If camping isn't for you (!) there are lovely holiday cottages at 'Shelve Holidays' or a luxury cabin at 'Heather and Stone'.
