Kind, creative, nature inspired craft workshops caring for you and the planet and helping us to all Grow Bright.
Growing Bright provides nature art and craft workshops.
We use natural and recycled materials; giving them a new lease of beautiful life and caring for the environment at the same time.

I setup Growing Bright in 2022 after re-discovering what I wanted to do with my life after the pandemic. I worked as a lawyer for 10 years, but nature and creativity has always featured heavily in my life.
I’ve always loved gardening and grew up helping my Dad on his allotment and learning a multitude of crafts from my Mum and Gran. I was signed up for Art A-levels before switching to academic subjects and the same at University – switching from law to fashion and back to law!
As with many people, Covid changed a lot of things for me and I realised that I needed to focus on my wellbeing and my family and do what I love. I studied some short courses, including Social and Therapeutic Horticulture with Thrive and a Level 2 Counselling qualification. I also volunteered at the wonderful Horatio’s Garden, Lindengate and the Chiltern Neuro Centre. After taking stock of all of my new experiences, Growing Bright was born!
I absolutely love coming up with ideas of things to make (always inspired by nature and upcycling) and how to make them as eco as possible. The icing on the cake is being able to share the creativity with people during my workshops. Growing Bright has brought so much to my life and I want to share this with people and Grow Bright with them.
