Workshops with Ailish

Ailish offers a variety of workshops which can be tailored to suit the needs of groups such as Bridal Parties, corporate events and schools.

Perhaps you would like a a “how-to” introduction to learning how to make beautiful headpieces or perhaps to learn something specific like how to make a flower crown. Once you have mastered some techniques of how to make a headpiece, you will go on to create your own unique style, and the range you can make is absolutely infinite.

Ailish has a very hands on approach at her fun and relaxing workshops helping with direction in different techniques while encouraging individualism and creativity to ensure the student adds their own personal taste to their creation.

The aim of these workshops is for you to make your own unique headpiece in a fun and informal group setting.

Fear not if you don’t think you have any creative skills in you – you’ll be instructed and guided through the creative process by an experienced milliner who will be there to lend a helping hand whenever it’s needed.
