All About

Hi my name is Debbie and I founded Make Space in Chelmsford in 2022 having previously worked in the fashion industry in London. Make Space is a beautiful mindful curation of craft parties, workshops, craft kits and commissioned pieces based around my joy for colour and design. You’ll find me in my happy place surrounded by semi precious beads, hand dyed yarns and neon paints creating the most beautiful bespoke creations from beaded bracelets to woven wall hangings. 

 

Crafting is for everyone, we all stand to benefit from it so I choose simple accessible techniques for all to try. My ‘Bead Bar’ is perhaps my most popular of classes as it features a truly inspiring assortment of colourful beads collected over the past 20 years from far flung corners of the globe on my previous travels. Creating affirmation bracelets using beads from the ‘Bead Bar’ is a beautiful mindful act of self care and has seen dozens of local crafters have a go at making bespoke jewellery with Make Space.

 

I love working with different materials and showing you how to combine them to create truely unique pieces. Whether that’s weaving, embroidery or a beautiful wreath. Classes are for all ages and are full of colour, fun and laughter. I love to see how relaxed people are during my classes, away from the hustle and bustle of their day lives. It’s time to embrace your inner child, to explore and find your creative edge. We all have one, I promise!

 

I look forward to meeting some of you at my classes, so go explore the site see what’s on in the event section and book a class, or fill out a contact form to enquire for a private party or 1-1 session and lets get crafting together.
