Making Christmas

“Making Space” on Saturdays in the Loreburn centre

Wordsmith Crafts is moving into the Loreburn centre in Dumfries. We will occupy a space to help you make space for making. The costs of this have been covered so you won’t need cash. Craft cool gifts using recycled and donated materials, help make materials available for others to use.

Scraps of wire to Jewellery
  • No cash needed – others have covered the costs to make this happen.
  • Sit down, de-stress, do something with your fingers.
  • All age (but not free childcare!) craft activities
  • Tap into the skills and techniques that made Christmas before consumerism
  • Time travel and discover Christmas past.

Like a floating monastery we have collected relics from the history of these islands. Come and sit in the storytelling tent and hear stories that are older than Scotland. Escape the present for a moment and let your imagination take you on an adventure.
