Maker's bio

The Arienas Collective supports local artists and makers to earn a living by sharing their creative skills and passions with others through delivering workshops. The workshops are run from our mews home in the beautiful Georgian New Town of central Edinburgh. We believe in the wellbeing benefits of engaging in creative activity, and our class sizes are kept small so that you get the support you need to make the most of your time with us. We teach you creative skills you can continue at home.

Davina Gillies reviewed: OLD Silver clay jewellery taster with Anna Campbell

"We were a family group of 5 who had a most relaxing time, in lovely surroundings, while making individual pieces of jewellery which we all love and wore to go home. Anna 's knowledge and delivery were excellent and we were able to follow her instructions easily as beginners to this craft. Loved her enthusiasm and passion for this. I have another class booked with a friend, which I am looking forward to already. Best wishes"

The Arienas Collective responded:

"Hello Davina Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this lovely, thoughtful review. It was a pleasure welcoming you and the family to The Arienas Collective and we look forward to welcoming you and your friend back! With best wishes Lynn"

Christine Armstrong reviewed: Introduction to macrame with Lucy Wayman

"Excellent day, yet again with Lucy's excellent teaching in macrame, supported by Lynne's great hosting. The items created by the participants were really impressive! I thoroughly recommend both this class and the Arianas Collective in general. "

The Arienas Collective responded:

"Thank you so much Christine! I agree that the work you and your fellow macrame makers made on Lucy's class was wonderful. Lucy is very patient with us all - thank you for letting me join you. And a huge thank you for taking the time to leave us a review...it means so much to me, Lucy and all The Arienas Collective creatives. I hope to welcome you back soon. Best wishes, Lynn :-)"
