Coffee, Cake, ‘n’ Craft – Sea-Themed Shadow Box

Layers of colour, gentle shadow, and coastal imagination come together in this beautifully absorbing paper art workshop. In this relaxed Coffee, Cake, ’n’ Craft session, you’ll design a sea-themed shadow box, building a framed artwork full of depth, movement, and quiet drama.

Working with layered paper and card, you’ll explore how shapes, spacing, and shadow can transform flat materials into a scene that feels alive. From rolling waves and sandy shores to shells, sea plants, and small ocean creatures, you’re free to create an underwater or coastal world that reflects your own ideas and style. As you work, you’ll learn how to stack layers, use spacers effectively, and balance colour and composition to make your design really pop.

This welcoming workshop is suitable for all abilities and is perfect for anyone who enjoys thoughtful, hands-on creativity. With small group sizes, there’s plenty of guidance while you work at a relaxed pace in a friendly, sociable atmosphere. Held as part of our Coffee, Cake, ’n’ Craft series every Friday, it’s a lovely way to slow down, enjoy good company, and create something striking and original. All tools and materials are included.
