Our Next Workshop
May 4th 2025
Nurturing our seedlings
Beltane marks the threshold of Summer and a time of balance and harmony- a perfect opportunity to nurture the seedlings within us.
Join us in crafting together. Guided by Annika-Maria, we will create simple figurines from natural materials, imbuing them with a personal or meaningful item.
Spirit or Intention dolls represent an ancient craft, where we weave our intentions and hopes, healing ourselves through mindful creation, celebration, and reflection.
Your ticket includes all the necessary equipment and tools to create your doll, refreshments, and a complimentary journal.
Jem and Biddi, the hosts of Women's Rites Workshops.
This is us! We are on a mission to bring women and those who identify with the feminine experience, together to share their understanding and wisdom. Through connection, community and joy, we recognise the patchwork pattern of happenings that, together, we can stitch into a beautiful tapestry.
Such a fabulous morning making our wonderful spirit/ intention dolls from potters clay, apple branch and scraps. Each holds a precious item, symbolising memories and hopes. A meaningful session guided by Annika-Marie, as we shared our tales and nourished our seedlings in celebration of the fertile time of Beltane and the turning of the wheel. Join us for more creative soul food on June 22nd with the delicious JoRae, @alchemywoman JoRae. Tickets available soon. #craftingcommunity #mindfulness #crafting #selfcare #wellbeing #mindfulliving #creative #sharing #women
Limited spaces are still available for the workshop on Sunday. We`ll be celebrating Beltane and nurturing or soul seedlings with the ancient craft of Spirit dolls. Link is in our bio.
Together we weave a harmony
around the blazing fire.
Flames flicker and dance in symphony,
echo our ancestral choir.
Let the fire spark your spirit,
your inspiration take flight.
The dark recedes behind us,
as we step into the light.

Very much looking forward to our Sunday workshop with Leisa Taylor. We`ll be planting some seeds that we hope to nourish and taking inspiration from visual journalling, through gelli printing with botanical items like leaves and bark.
This will offer a creative and therapeutic way to reflect, explore ideas, and nurture personal growth. Layering textures, colours, and natural impressions connects us to nature, encourages mindfulness, and helps us express emotions that cannot be put into words.
Using printmaking as a journaling tool, will help us to visually map out the projects, dreams, and intentions we wish to cultivate in the coming year—transforming thoughts into tangible, inspiring pages.
Benefits of Visual Journaling with Gelli Printing:
✨ Encourages mindfulness & stress relief through creative play
🍃 Deepens connection with nature by incorporating organic textures
🎨 Unlocks self-expression beyond words, perfect for exploring emotions
🌀 Helps process thoughts & intentions for future projects
📖 Transforms blank pages into a visual roadmap for growth
Let your journal be a space for exploration, discovery, and inspiration—one print at a time!

What a lovely morning we had working on our venn diagrams and planning our metaphorical gardens. The activities brought up such interesting and open conversations and sharing. It`s an honour to hold space for these cathartic mornings. I am excited to see how our gardens develop over the year.
Next workshop March 23rd.
