This is the ‘Beach Themed’ version of the Modern Woven Wall Hanging Workshop (Freestyle), where you’ll immerse yourself in all things ocean and beach related - from the more limited colour palette, to embellishing your weaving with shells and driftwood.
So if you love this seaside theme, this workshop is for you.
Hand weaving is a timeless craft that offers more than just a creative outlet; it’s a way to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and find calm in a fast-paced world.
Led by Sophie, a passionate modern weaver with an “anything goes” approach, this workshop encourages playful exploration. Whether you want bold colours or subtle tones, you’ll be supported every step of the way to make your wall hanging truly one-of-a-kind.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
  • First you’ll discover how to use all the weaving tools and choose the easiest ones for you.
  • Then you’ll start by creating a simple fringe, using a Rya knot.
  • Next you'll create the body of your weaving, using a colour palette of blues, teal, white and creams, so you create that feeling of being by the sea.
  • Then you’ll take the weaving off the loom and finish it off by sewing in ends and adding a hanging pole; so you can proudly take it home.
  • But not before you embellish your weaving with driftwood, shells and beads in any way you’d like.
And don’t worry if you’ve never done anything like this before - Sophie will be guiding and assisting you every step of the way!
This weaving workshop is perfect for you if:
  • You’re looking for a mindful, creative escape.
  • You love all things OCEAN or beach related.
  • You love trying new hands-on crafts.
  • You’ve always been curious about weaving.
  • You want to create a unique piece of handmade art.
  • You’re looking for something a bit different
  • You’re ready to explore your artistic side in a fun, relaxed setting.
Sophie offers small public or private classes in her studios, where you’ll get plenty of 1-2-1 help.
As well as private or hens parties at your own (minimum of 6 people).
Or larger groups in a venue to be determined according to your requirements.

Hi - I’m Sophie Mahir, former semi abstract acrylic painter, now turned fibre artist, originally from the UK and now happily living and creating my weavings in sunny Perth, Australia.
I have always loved different yarns and textiles and started my own knitting business when I was just 18. Going on to gain a Waldorf Art Teaching Diploma and teaching children art and crafts for 8 years; till the desire to create my own art took over and I went full time as a professional painter.
From there I went deeper into business, qualifying as a life & business coach and trainer; specialising in women’s business start-ups and eventually setting up online as an art business coach and educator.
In early 2024 I made the decision to focus back into my creativity and officially making the switch into fibre art with my weavings and weaving workshops in Perth.
I'm passionate about living creatively and enabling others to explore their full potential too. I believe in the power of doing something artistic not just for your own expression; but also for relaxing, mindfulness and improving your mental and physical health.
