Build A Hare Craft Workshop Sussex

Build a Hare Craft Workshop Sussex

Come and spend a day in the beautiful Sussex countryside at my build a hare craft workshop. You will spend a few hours making your very own hare with my guidance. Everything you need will be supplied, other than fabric (which can be supplied if needs be).

PLEASE NOTE: This workshop experience is not intended as a teaching course for moulding, casting or making faux taxidermy in order for you to start a faux taxidermy business. Due to health and safety considerations, I will provide a pre-cast form and a pre-made plaque.

Refreshments are included. There is easy parking available.

For more information, please see here.

Duration: 6 – 7.5  Hours (10am – 5.30pm) Duration is dependent on your crafting skills, and I am of course happy to continue until you are happy with your creation. BYO Lunch

Location: West Sussex, Ditchling Common.

What’s included:

• All materials required, except fabrics. Fabrics may be purchased separately  – £10 per pack, or bring your own.
• Use of any tools needed.
• Refreshments

Fabric Quantity and Type to bring for your hare craft workshop:

You will need 4 different fabrics for your hare:

1 – A fairly lightweight (but not sheer) non-stretch fabric for the ear front – 150mm x 150mm

2 – 3 x Pieces of fabric that compliment each other. Must not be stretchy or thin.

A heavy curtain or upholstery fabric is recommended – no dress or quilting fabrics unless they are a thicker fabric and tightly woven.

More comprehensive information can be found here.

Things to Note:

It is helpful if you can use a sewing machine. If not, I can either sew the ears for you, or I have a no-sew alternative for the ears.

You will also be using a hot glue gun and a battery powered driver / driver. If you are uncomfortable or unfamiliar with using any electrical or hot tools, please let me know.

One you have booked your workshop, I will be in touch with a very quick questionnaire to make sure all goes smoothly on your workshop day.

Why is it pricier to build a hare myself when buying one pre-made is cheaper?

Good question. There are a few reasons for this:

1 – It takes me a significantly shorter amount of time to make a hare than it does for a workshop attendee to make one.

2 – I have much more preparation to do for workshops to accommodate everyone in such a way that they will have a comfortable and fun day.

3 – When you buy a pre-made hare, you don’t have the same experience as making one. It’s designed to b a fun day, at the end of which you get to take home your new buddy

4 – Though I am not offering workshops in order for people to start their own faux taxidermy business, I do impart knowledge gained from years of prop making experience to  you during the workshop, which may come in handy in your future craft endeavors.
