Finding your creative style at
Happy Crafts
Our workshops and classes offer a variety of arts and crafts activities encouraging children to practice mindfulness in the most natural way - through art. Children will be pulled into a creative moment through the use of colours, textures and the crafting process where they can freely express themselves, create something tangible, and give them that boost they can draw up on time after time at Happy Crafts.

Meet Emily
Hello, I’m your Happy Crafter Emily!
​
I have over 10 years experience in art and design, and passion for practising mindful art at home with my own two children, Mabel aged six and Ruben aged four. Mabel continues to inspire me with her creativity and encourages me daily to think up new and fun (sometimes messy) activities we can practice at home.
​
For the past one and a half years I have been delivering art classes to pre-school children and have always wanted to expand my offering to a wider age range of children and with the mindful twist I truly believe in. I see and experience first hand the emotional benefits arts and crafts has on both my wellbeing and the children I work with.
​
I am incredibly excited to bring Happy Crafts to North Tyneside and share my love and passion for everything artsy craftsy with as many children as possible.
​
Lets get crafting!
