D O V E T A I L S ! We absolutely love this. These D O V E T A I L S ! We absolutely love this. These pics have been sent in by our Level 3 Woodworking student Warwick. With his paternity leave nearly over he needed a second desk to work from home on. Made from leftover walnut and maple wood he had in his workshop, he says he’s still got lots of planing and scraping to do to get it perfect but he’s pretty happy with it. We think it looks fantastic, great use of dovetail joints! ⠀ If like Warwick you’re keeping busy at home with woodwork, send us a pic via email to hello@themakershedbristol.co.uk we’d love to know what you’re all making out there. We’ll keep posting our student lockdown project photos to keep our followers feeling energised too and we're SO looking forward to the day when we can get back to the workshop and start teaching again. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ www.themakershedbristol.co.uk ⠀ #themakershedbristol #bristol #whatsonbristol #courses #craft #skills #learn #study #beginners #happystudents #woodisgood #woodworkinglove #woodworkingproject #woodlove #woodcraft #woodworkingtools #lovewood #notboredbusy #lockdownprojects #stayhome #staysafe #staycreative

U P H O L S T E R Y ! It’s another lockdown ‘W U P H O L S T E R Y ! It’s another lockdown ‘When We Wednesday’ and this was when our lovely student Sam taking part in our ‘Eco Upholstery for Beginners Level 1 – The Stool’ course back in February, she did a great job in learning to web, pad and cover her stools by using traditional upholstery tools, techniques and materials. ⠀ At The Makershed we’re very lucky to have all that space to teach in, as soon as we get back to work we’ll be putting a social distancing plan in place to make sure our students and tutors are safe to be back in the workshop. In the meantime stay safe, stay home, stay busy, stay creative! ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ www.themakershedbristol.co.uk ⠀ #themakershedbristol #bristol #whatsonbristol #courses #craft #skills #learn #study #beginners #havefun #becreative #bekind #happystudents #eco #upholstery #footstool #lovestools #armchair #traditionalupholstery #weekendcourse #eveningclasses #daytimecourse #upholsterycourses #learnupholstery #creativeupholstery #staysafe #stayhome #staybusy #staycreative ⠀

If you’ve completed one of our Woodwork or DIY for Beginners courses in the past you may well have been taught by our fabulous tutor Ali. For those of you who know Ali, you’ll know she’s always got a little project on the go, so we knew that she would find something to keep herself busy whilst being on lockdown away from The Makershed. ⠀ For the last few weeks she’s kept herself busy in her workshop, she’s built some insulated walls, laid a new floor using reclaimed pallets and is currently building some massive storage cupboards! She also tells us she’s painted her garage, her lounge, her decking, her greenhouse (timbers), has been tending her allotment and found time to walk her dog everyday! The progress looks amazing, but take it easy Ali or you’ll be too tired to come back to work! ⠀ If, like Ali, you are busy at home doing woodwork or anything creative send us a pic, we’d love to know what you’re all doing to banish boredom. Send your pics to hello@themakershedbristol.co.uk, thank you and stay safe, stay home and most of all stay creative. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ www.themakershedbristol.co.uk ⠀ #themakershedbristol #bristol #courses #craft #skills #students #tutor #woodworkinglove #woodworkingproject #woodcraft #woodworking #lovewood #workshop #diy #projects #stayhome #staysafe #staycreative #staybusy

Forget ‘Throwback Thursdays’ how about ‘When We Wednesdays’?! ⠀ ‘When we’ snapped this happy group photo of lovely students, they had all just done a fabulous job in finishing their Level 1 toolboxes. Completed during our Wednesday evening classes back at the beginning of March, apart from lots of cleaning, handwashing and hand sanitizers in use we all had no idea what was ahead. ⠀ Not only do we take great pride in teaching our Woodworking for Beginners students the skills and techniques of traditional hand joinery to make these toolboxes, we love getting to know them all too and we didn’t realise how much we’d miss the conversations and all the jolly banter during the classes. ⠀ We can’t wait to welcome ALL of our students back on the other side of this COVID-19 enforced hiatus.

To end this debate I shall eat the chocolate and I still have the tools. Win win! ⠀ I hope whatever you did to celebrate Easter you did it at home, safely and with loads of chocolate.

After Mike sent in a pic of his fluffy cats helping with his woodwork project last week, here’s a couple from Warwick of his woodworking project and his cats Horace & Beatrix. What a couple of beauties you've got there - those big eyes! ⠀ Looks like you're doing such an amazing job on those dovetails. It’s great to know you’re still woodworking, make sure you keep your chisels sharp, the shoulders flat and those cheeks square! ⠀ Is anyone else busy woodworking or up to a creative project at home? Email us a pic, we’d love to know what you’re all doing to stay busy during lockdown. Any doggie pics would be welcome too - just to keep the balance of pet love on our feed of course. ⠀ Have a great Easter weekend, stay indoors, eat chocolate eggs and stay safe. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ www.themakershedbristol.co.uk ⠀ #themakershedbristol #bristol #courses #craft #skills #students #woodisgood #woodworkinglove #woodworkingproject #woodcraft #staycreative #dovetails #chisels #cats #dogs #petlove #chocolate #eggs #easter #stayhome ⠀
S T A Y  C R E A T I V E ! One very small positiv S T A Y  C R E A T I V E ! One very small positive in not teaching students while we are on lockdown is that the Makershed tutors have had time to pick up their own creative projects and crack on with them. ⠀ While I’ve been busy re-upholstering an old chair with a new edge roll and keeping the admin side of things ticking over. Ali & Luke have been socially distancing themselves from others while tending their respective allotments - check out Ali’s massive leeks!!! ⠀ Ali has also been laying a new insulated floor in her workshop along with designing a new workbench. There’s clearly not enough time to be teaching anyway. Well done guys!

W O O D W O R K ! We can’t think of anything bet W O O D W O R K ! We can’t think of anything better to start this new lockdown week than reminding ourselves of how well our Woodworking for Beginners student Tim did while making his Level 2 cabinet. Split into three modules, the case, the drawer and the door, Tim took part in our Thursday daytime classes to complete this course in just 12 days and he did a superb job! ⠀ Before we closed our doors due to the coronavirus pandemic he was looking forward to planning a new project with us in our Level 3 Project classes where we’d help him with project design, timber sourcing, joinery plans and then give him technical guidance as he completed his own project. ⠀ We miss all of our students but especially Tim and his Mark Kermode esque film knowledge and endless green fingered gardening tips. We hope he’s taking it easy at home and planning his project for when we can all get back in the workshop. In the meantime, stay home, stay safe, support the NHS and stay creative! ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ www.themakershedbristol.co.uk ⠀ #themakershedbristol #bristol #whatsonbristol #courses #craft #skills #learn #study #beginners #havefun #becreative #bekind #happystudents #woodisgood #woodworkinglove #woodworkingproject #woodlove #woodcraft #woodworkcourses #daytimecourse #woodworkingtools #lovewood #mademyowncabinet
