2 hours Class size 1 to 10 guests       $100 (PayPal Pay in 4 available)

Come and join Tammy to create your very own beautiful macramé!
Coming to the Hunter Valley for the weekend with a group? Do you have a birthday, hens party or another occasion coming up and need an activity to do? Looking for a team-building task for your workplace? Maybe need something exciting to do for your Christmas party? Try macramé!
Macramé is the art of knotting and has a long and rich history. It is a mindful practice that allows you to slow down and focus on a task with the additional benefits of calming the mind and improving one's physical and mental well-being. It is quite easy to master once you have learned a few of the basic knots and techniques that I will teach you.
Each session starts with a complimentary glass of DeBortoli Winery Merlot. Food is not provided during the session and BYO food or drink is not allowed by the winery. However gourmet food platters and drinks are available to purchase from the winery (wines must be consumed in accordance with DeBortoli’s responsible service of alcohol rules).
During the class, you will create a macramé work of art that should be ready to take home when you leave.
Enjoy learning the art of knotting and create your very own beautiful piece that you will be proud of.

  • Sherbrook Ceramic Art is a small family run business with art studios located in the bush shire of Hornsby and the Hunter Valley, NSW.
  • Established in 2011 when I was working as a healthcare professional. While on duty and particularly on a weekend, patients often felt sad and bored. I decided to gather up equipment and materials to set up arts and crafts sessions and invited patients to join in. They all found it great fun and helpful. This was the reason I decided to open an art studio for the purpose of bringing people in the community together, to attend, socially connect, explore their inner creativities and at the same time enjoy, unwind, relax, and have fun.
  • I love teaching and am passionate about all types of arts and crafts. I would love to guide you step by step through the process, teaching from the heart, so that you feel supported to create and complete your own masterpiece.
  • Lots of my relatives, friends, and colleagues at work comment, “You are so talented, is there anything you cannot do?”
  • As a young girl my mum, who was a very creative person, taught me sewing, embroidery, cooking and painting.
  • Sherbrook Ceramic Art is a place to come and be creative, unwind and be productive. As you enter my studio, you will be astounded by all the ceramic works on display and be inspired to create in the artistic environment. While you are sitting in the studio, you will have soft relaxation music playing as well as an aromatherapy diffuser on to calm your mind.
  • The classes and workshops are always pleasing for me as I get to meet the most beautiful people, share my passion for arts and crafts and treasure the smiles, the happiness on their faces as they complete their products and I am as proud of their creations as they are, for helping achieving their goals, whether that be big or small, first time or regular attendance.
  • I have done many arts and crafts courses and won many prizes over the years.
  • In 2010, I attended art courses and programs in America through Duncan Ceramics in California, Amaco Brent in Indiana and Mayco in Ohio where I learnt contemporary ceramic techniques. In 2012 I attended the Grazia Museum and the International School of Ceramic Art in Deruta, Italy where I learnt both innovative styles and classical Majolica techniques from two famous artists, professor Riccardo Muti and maestro Romano Ranieri.
  • Have a great positive beautiful day
