WORKSHOP KIT CREATION

After working with Hobbycraft extensively for the past three years, Becki was delighted to be commissioned to design a workshop kit for their newly launched online workshop platform. 

Drawing on five years experience of teaching brush lettering, Becki created a brush lettering workshop kit aimed at beginners and inclusive of a full tutorial guide, templates on mark making, brush lettered alphabet, joining letters and practice phrases. Becki was heavily involved in every stage of the kit’s creation; working with Hobbycraft from her initial ideas right through to the final complete product and delivering the workshops.

Following the highly successful launch of the kit and workshops, Becki has since taught a team of Hobbycraft’s chosen artisans how to effectively deliver the workshop. This offers Hobbycraft and their customers continual access to the kit’s content, both in-store and online. In the first 6 months since launch the workshop has been taught hundreds of times between Becki and Hobbycraft’s colleagues. 

For Christmas 2021, Becki developed a festive brush lettering workshop kit and taught this via 25 online workshops. She is currently creating an intermediate kit, exclusively for Hobbycraft, which will launch in 2022 to further the brush lettering workshop experience.
